About

Hi there! My name is Pedro! I am a fellow travelling enthusiast, originally from the northeastern mountainous area of Portugal known as Trás-os-Montes. I have been fortunate enough to be able to enjoy some of this world's magnificent human and natural treasures and I plan on doing so as often as I can. I am an archaeologist and an intercultural communicator by trade, but life has taken me many places, so I have also been a translator, a researcher, a chef, a farmer, a waiter, and a myriad of other things we will be able to laugh about when we get to meet! I speak Portuguese, English, and Spanish fluently, while my Finnish, my German, and my French aren't too shabby either. I am always up for a language exchange though, so feel free to put me to the test and share whatever knowledge you feel like imparting! I love to travel, to bike, to play my (classical) guitar, to cook (please share all the vegan recipes you can!), photography, animals, hiking, climbing, and effectively all things nature and outdoors! I am also fascinated by history, geography, maps (archaeologist and nerd alert!), and interculturality at large and in particular human and natural adaptations to local conditions.

This trip was a very great one, my first one with joinmytrip, and happy it was with Pedro! He is a very friendly and organised person and a very much and widely informed guide beyond the usual Info you extract from travel books. Is it a hike where he seems lile knowing every hill and impressive waterfalls, as well when it comes to historical and cultural facts, very coherent. As a side note it can get flexible and funny with him! The area is immpressive!! Come and get a deep insight of it with Pedro!!

Pedro was an exceptional guide—knowledgeable, thoughtful, and incredibly adaptable throughout the entire trip. I was traveling solo, and he made me feel completely comfortable from the start. In Oporto, he shared fascinating historical and cultural insights that brought the city to life. He was friendly, engaging, and clearly passionate about what he does. In Gerês National Park, the experience truly exceeded my expectations. Pedro tailored the hikes perfectly to my ability level, always patient and encouraging. He took me to breathtaking miradors, a crystal-clear blue lagoon, and even guided me to the perfect spot to see wild horses up close—an unforgettable experience go the horse lover that I am. He also shared captivating stories about the land, local cows, and information about the local shepherds as well as historical facts. Pedro is a highly experienced climber and taught me techniques that helped me feel more confident by the end of the trip. His sense of humor made everything more enjoyable, and his calm, reassuring energy really stood out. He was punctual, ensured I had good accommodations, picked me up promptly at the start, and even made sure I got home safely. The hot springs were a perfect, relaxing way to enhance the adventure. Portugal is absolutely stunning, and having Pedro as a private guide made it a truly special and unforgettable trip. I highly recommend him!

Pedro is a reliable tour guide who does his job very professionally and responsibly. His profile accurately reflects his nature. Pedro dealt with every situation with understanding, patience, understanding, friendliness, flexibility and openness and solved them individually and in the interests of the group. His stories about the country are informative and discussions with him are exciting. Thanks to his sense of humor, I was able to laugh a lot. Pedro has the necessary ease and talent to get a group of individualists to their destination successfully and in a good mood. His straightforwardness is infectious. The spring landscape was beautiful. The eye can't get enough of it. I can only warmly recommend this trip with Pedro!
