![SURPRISED BY NORTHERN PORTUGAL! | Peneda Geres, Soajo & Sistelo [#northernportugaltravel]](/img/n.gif)
Gerês lives up to the HYPE! Beauty to be found everywhere! In next vlog we go in-depth with our private guide, who knows all the things worth knowing! See you in two days! Don't forget to subscribe and leave a like for the ALCO-Rhythm! 😘
@Custom Garage o Gerês é sim o unico parque nacional, a serra da Arrábida está caracterizada como parque natural... Não tem nem de perto comparação... E essa do vinho tudo depende de gostos...
Hello, I'm the employee that serves you, I hope you both like our petiscos from Santus.
I hope see you again here, by the way thank you for the tip 😃
The fisherwoman and the way you stop to talk to her: that's real class, to look to what the majority doesn't see. To look for the details that brings autenticity and charm.
Thank you for making this videos. They capture some of the soul of Portugal and are made with so much love.
I like how he said she ws pretty like the fish lol!
Thank u for taking us to these places. The landscape was fantastic along with the music choices. As always. I know you don’t love to be in the middle of nowhere but some of us really appreciate the effort.
Gerês National Park is beautiful. Driving around with the cows and horses makes it even more interesting. We stopped at the same restaurant when we were in Soajo. Brings back good memories. If you go back to Northern Portugal, you should go to Pitões Das Junias. Such a beautiful little village. Amazingly nice people and good food. They have a bakery that is opened 24 hours a day. Amazing bread and good donuts.
I was in Gerês in July, and explored this entire region, it's beautiful! After Gerês I visited Madeira for 10 days and the island is impressive! A funny thing is that the guy who rented me the car said that this year there were a lot of Danes there! I could only think it's because of you!
Cool! I wish more scandinavians would visit Portugal, they are cool, nice and respectful people.
Before leaving Portugal I used to live in Esposende. I did some hikes in Gerês during the weekends (and they are pretty safe to do, don't worry) since it is relatively close by. But not nearly as much as I should have done. This year I had some holidays in May and I chose Gerês. It is impressive how many things I could have visited when I lived there. I took my country beauty for granted and now I can enjoy it only as a tourist.
Love your retro cooler. the hat? 5/10 ~ I think a baseball style hat would be more flattering... but hey. At 3:27 the hat is in reverse lol! Lovely scenery there...
Did a similar trip years ago . there are Hieroglyphics near the dam. The area is very unique with the mountains , rivers and waterfalls. Each village has special taste and history. This patch work makes Portugal a special place in the world that touch your senses like a lingering dream. Beautiful.
Wlc to my country
I'm from Amares
Braga
I'm missing so much my place
Geres has a lot more to see
A big hug from London
Enjoy
I'm Brazilian and I was simply delighted with the gerês, undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places I've visited, the energy of this place is incredible.
Those corn storage things are called Espigueiros
I was born in Arcos de Valdevez, so excited you went. It’s so beautiful there. My parents house is down the street from the swing. I was there after you, I couldn’t wait to see where you guys went. Back in the US now, unfortunately. We were at the same place in Sistelo too. I had wanted to go see the waterfalls but ended up not being able to. Thanks for the videos, always look forward to watch!
hi, the name of those things to dry corn is called "caniço "
Hmm... I know them as "espigueiros" (to dry the "espigas"). En Galicia they call it "horrios" and in Carnota there's the world's longest one (36m long), 'pero los tios fe Lira' claim theirs is longer;)
Anyway, they have that design to prevent mice access to it, with those large and flat disks on the pilars. In Asturias they also have same kind of structure, usually in a square format.
@@cleantheocean true, in V.N. Famalicão we called them "espigueiros".
WoW!! I think you have found Paradise ❤️👌
Each time I travel by car in Portugal, I'm amazed by the huge rocs you can see in the middle of nowhere. It makes me feel like I'm in another planet.
ASSIM É PORTUGAL!!
I love Arcos de Valdevez, so good food and wine, the cooler is so beautiful
Obrigadinhos👊
Keep these beautiful videos coming
WOW another beautiful Video love your Videos , Portugal is beautiful I would love to live there one day .
Amazing video guys! I'm so happy that you've finally found Gerês! For me it's the most scenic place in Portuga, and the best spot to rest in Nature and absorb the good vibes. Cheers guys 🏖️🍸🙂🙋♂️🙈😜
So many great memories of my childhood this video brings ❤
Hey Joen and Amelie. That waterfall was to die for! Awesome video as always!
Beautiful video, cannot wait to visit Portugal soon, and I must add Geres to the itinerary!
Im so glad you guys went to Sao Bento - whenever i visit both sets of my grandparents we always made the trip there. Seeing those side road stores made my day and made me reminisce when i was younger!
Beautiful Video Geo Tour - You Guys are funny too! Thank you
Best part of the day are your videos!
Beautiful video Hope to go and see it one day thank you for showing the beautiful places in 🇵🇹
Hat is a solid ten. Looks good on you Joen. Nice video as per usual. 👍👍
I would love to be taken for a walk in Gerês, but I'm scared that a big vulture will snatch me for lunch! I miss you mommy and daddy!
Where are you?
Vulture only eat dead things.
Nice to see you guys back on the road.... Amelia is rocking that tan...
Love you guy's, your videos are amazing. That looked like a cool adventure!
Another place to add to places to visit. Thank you guys.
Aquela imagem dos Espigueiros 🤩….. lindo 😻!
This seems to be a very charming place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much!
Cascata de Pincães, Poço Verde Fafião, Poço da Cancela (Road to Fafião), Cascata Cela Cavalos, Flecha das Barjas (Thaiti, too crowded), etc... etc...
Great video: informative and entertaining. Congrats ! And by the way, your command of the Portuguese language has improved a lot. 👍👍
Still here in gerês for 5 more days, going canyoning. This is heaven on earth.
Loved watching this video! I never went there but would love to. Stunning place! This just remembered me how much I want to spend some time there enjoying that beauty 🙂
Another wondrously beautiful area of Portugal. And I'd been waiting to see that alheira. Yum! Nice compliment Joen gave the fish lady, "You're as beautiful as the fish". LOL!
Haha, in hindsight it wasnt that nice of me to say, but I meant well 😂
I can't love this enough!! ❤❤❤❤
Have watched most of your Portugal vlogs before moving to Coimbra a few months ago. Of all the youtube I’ve watched, yours do have a unique flavor that, like a ripe cheese, severed room temperature on a moonlight beach with cold Prosecco, are best savored if the Prosecco is your 3rd bottle of the evening. Ha! Anyway, your drone shots and editing are the best I’ve ever seen and, all kidding aside, I really enjoys them.
Awesome place! And yes, I saw the hat on backwards lol. Hat tag on forehead! Thanks guys, great video!
The best hat to protect the ears! 😀
Beautiful place!
That Portuguese tan… Thank you for making visit the area.
I swam in both arado and portela do homem waterfalls. ❤️
I give your hat a solid 8 for Cancer prevention, but a 2 for style. But who cares about style when it comes to Cancer. Coverage is what matters, and that hat is a great choice ;)
There's much more to explore in Gerês, I hope you come back! Beautiful drone images. There's a hidden waterfall just where you started the video, if you go back I ll give you the spot information!
You’re stunning! Please continuing!!! Vocês são espectaculares! Por favor continuem as vossas jornadas! ❤❤❤❤
My man! I want Portuguese food! Seriously! Portuguese food wins hands down! Unequivocally!
"We ate your uncle yesterday" 😂
I am happy that you appreciate green wine, it is very good indeed...best regards from David Quental...
In this year, we went to Gerês, Soajo and we made Soajo - Nossa Senhora da Peneda, walking. Very nice.
Stunning stunning! 🤩👏👏😍I share it already in Facebook.
You should go to Ponte de Lima next, the oldest and prettiest town in Portugal, eat some Arroz de Sarrabulho and drink Vinho Verde :D
Sempre Vila, nunca Cidade. A Vila mais antiga de Portugal.
Classy as always :)
Gorgeous area… simply beautiful! Obrigada ~
Thanks Jen!!
You have more Parques Nacionais in Portugal but the majority are called Parque Natural but the principle is the same ( protect the nature around)
@@stayclassyvlog there area actually a couple of national parks (parque nacional do alvão ou da serra da estrela), but Gerês is definitely special.
at 11:20 the name is "espigueiro"
Ahah eu também se estiver na fronteira prefiro SEMPRE comer em Portugal.
He is lucky to have you Amelie.
For a 1 day trip you saw good stuff, i hope "tomorrow" you will see some hidden gems while doing some trails. You passed through so many good stuff, but in 1 day, you can't ask for more!
You put together a beautiful video. Keep em coming. Bravo
Petiscos is the Portuguese version of “tapas”. In fact, tapas in Spain come from pintxos which is a piece of bread and something good on top, but now what we see in all Spain is that they offer tapas but in fact it corresponds to our petiscos. I’m from Minho living in Lisbon and I know that’s not new. A lot of times I went out with friends to have some petiscos as a dinner before moving to the bars and so on (you probably already know how the night works in Portugal). I had these kind of restaurants in Guimarães, Braga and Porto and I just loved it. Some restaurants would bring you petiscos over and over again, whatever was leaving the kitchen, and I just loved it! We could taste as much as 20 different dishes including deserts. I’m glad it’s becoming a trend because it sure worths it. BTW isn’t Minho such a jewel?
The portuguese l9ve for petiscos is so great we even create a verb and an adjective to describe the acts of eating and enjoying petiscos.
@@carlossaraiva8213 petiscar :)
queijo, presunto, moelas, in Lisboa pica-pau... nothing too complicated and fancy....
@@linogalveias salada de polvo, moelas, choco frito...
No! Tapas means to cover, the word is from spainish "tapar", which is the same in portuguese. The habit comes from bars, they put a small plate over the glasses to keep out the flies, and so evolved the habit to put "snacks" on the plate. Petiscos means small pieces.
@@franseronell4555 you are translating literally. Of course it means cover but we don’t eat covers. About the pintxos I know from long ago on my trips to Madrid and San Sebastián. At that time tapas was not a spread concept as I know. Petiscos means literally “best food, best flavor, delicacy” and is usually served in small dishes before the big meals or as a meal itself. In those cases we say let’s go “petiscar”. It happens for example in marriages or other parties/receptions and we call it “copo de água”, literally glass of water (well this is way very ironic :-)). Cheers!
Go to Abocanhado restaurante at Brufe... And Vale de Podros, the hobbit village...
Minho, the portuguese paradise.
I have the same tummy as Joan :D. Let's make it trendy!
That Fridge 😍
We call them "coolers" or an ice box. Esky in Australian.....
We call them geladeiras in Portugal.
Parabéns pelo canal!!!👌👏👏❤️
Congrats. Very Nice.....very nice.
Interesting video ! Thanks guys ;-)
Só good Portugal 👍
Thank you for sharing!! The best cinematic videos I've seen about my region. Miss Minho Portugal so much. My family is originally from there and there are beautiful areas to see. For anyone that is planning to go, do a deep research and you'll find them!! 😉 New subscriber! I'm hooked, please keep sharing
Why there are ten people who don't like the video?
Thanks!
Love your videos guys ..please visit vila franca de xira ..you must try pizza from Pizza guru
As i said sometime ago...Geres is Top!! Well the North of Portugal is great!
Ps: that Alvarinho in the right temperature and a meal it's almost Heaven..🤤
Lovely 💚
Your hat is a solid 10
The thumbnail brought me here once again , I don't know how you guys doing it...looks like sorcery or something.
I' ve been there last 2 months! I won years of life! ❤
Good filming
Muito obrigado
parabéns escolheram bem o restaurante para almoçarem.
the best wine of de world is the wine of de womens in Portugal. Wine Alvarinho green Wine.
Did you see any wolves? 🐺🐺 There's a few of them in Gerês 😄
@@stayclassyvlog Yes, not that many (there's about 300 in Portugal), but they can still find you 😄 Well, they did find me once, a long time ago
Muito bom. Também vamos conhecer
guy’s you are a great couple🍾🍾🍾👍🥂
Very Cool Thanks🕺
Go to the stadium watching the biggest football teams in Portugal plzz
What a life!! 😎
Go to cascata cela de cavalo, just awesome !
Stunning drone shots. Why u call it team work when I did everything! 🤣Amélia u rock! Gerês is outstanding, a shame u missed Ponte da Barca and Ponte de Lima, but you must come back because you barely scratched the surface. You need to visit Esposende and its Celtic Ruins, Caminha and Estorões with its beautiful river mill house, Vilar de Mouros, Paredes de Coura, just the drive there is worth it, and of course the famous Vodafone Summer Music Festival is always held there by the river Coura... So pretty, then there is Valença and Monção... At least these places are in order so to continue your exploration of Minho.
Wonderschön ❤
"Nah, i want portuguese food".
That's my boy!!!
Joen has gone full native, Joen has turned portuguese.
Class
finally ...
sete lagoas ..
You would have loved to take the trail that connects Cascata do Arado to Poço Azul and then you couldn't resist taking a refreshing dip in the stunning natural pool of super clear water that flows from its waterfall.

Na verdade a senhora do peixe disse que vem da Póvoa de Varzim não de Viana do Castelo 😂 “Viana do Castelo??” “Nãummm Póboa!!!” 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Between European countrys theres no fisical borders.
They must know that because Denmark borders with Germany and Sweden.
But some months ago at the height of confinement there were border checks between Portugal and Spain so he must have been surprised those were no longer enforced by now.
