Day trip to Arouca GeoPark with lovely lunch at the end. - Great day trip! Marco was a teriffic guide. He’s friendly, great language skills for our mixed English & Spanish group, attentive to the needs of all, and just fun. Our small group of 5 was really nice and we enjoyed conversation & laughs, as well as pleasant quiet individual time to enjoy the beauty of the area. I highly recommend!
