Portugal Road Trip - From start to finish Jose worked hard to ensure that our holiday didn't disappoint. This was a tailor made trip, we had in depth conversations regarding our interests and Jose... read more made sure that all these aspects were included in our tour. He promised to be there for us throughout our visit and was true to his word-we had car problems and he organised a tow truck to take us to the electro mechanic, who solved the problem, all this within a couple of hours! He recommended campsites, hotels, restaurants etc., places to visit, even some local wines. We really can't praise Jose and Dream Overland enough

A journey of discovery - This was an amazingly well organised trip. José's knowledge of the routes, history and culture spanning the whole country was excellent and he imparted this knowledge exceedingly well. I saw... read more so many contrasting sides of a country I love and I personally took away long lasting memories and a thirst to undertake this journey to see more again next year. I can not recommend this company enough. Thank you and I look forward to seeing you again next year.

Exploring Northern Portugal - With Jose’s help our three 4x4’s spent 10 days following the Road book Jose provided for northern Portugal. There was a lot of off road tracks which the RB explained... read more very well. It included hotels, camp sites and restaurants, all of good quality. We had a break down and Jose found a garage for us who managed to fix the problem, he also provided translations for us. All in all a very good trip and we will use Jose again when we go back. Ten out of ten Jose, we’ll done.

Wild Dragon Adventure Club Portugal 2023 - What a fabulous job Jose did for our group from Wild Dragon Adventure Club. His brief was to create a trip for two weeks in Northern Portugal. Jose went over... read more and above our wildest expectations creating a Road Book for the group outlining each day's route, where to camp and recommended restaurants and hotels etc. The detail was amazing and made for an outstanding and memorable self-supporting overland trip for our group. We really got to see the real Portugal and immersed ourselves in the culture of the areas we visited. Jose was also on hand by phone if we had any queries or issues, like stumbling across a wildfire! We all enjoyed it so much we're booking a similar trip with him next year. We would fully recommend Dream Overland. Exceptional value in every sense.

Highly recommend. - We have been visiting Portugal with José Almeida for the best part of a decade, up to twice a year.
Upon our first trip, he instantly made us fall... read more in love with the country and its fantastic people.
His cultural knowledge of the country is spectacular and his English faultless. He seems to know almost everyone in his country - or if he doesn't, he makes a friend in seconds!
His recommendations for visits, restaurants, hikes, photo opportunities and off-road trails have been priceless.
He'd better watch out when we retire as we won't be leaving him for a second.
Anyhow, in a nutshell, it's two very enthusiast thumbs up from us all. See you soon, Sir.

Great off road trip - Dream Overland (Jose Ameida) took us on a great off road trip in North Portugal. He is a fantastic guide with lots of knowledge about the area, the history, the... read more culture, the nature and the best places to go. We have been at places we would never have found by ourselves and had a super off road holiday!

Trip to northern Portugal - We spent 2 weeks touring Northern Portugal with Dream Overland and really did have the most amazing time. We got to explore areas that we never would have known about... read more if it wasn’t for the knowledge and planning of this great company. This is an amazing country with a rich diversity of landscapes many of which we explored on great off road driving tracks. The people, the culture and the great food this amazing country has to offer completely had us hooked from day one and we would highly recommend this trip and this company

This is our second trip with Jose and Dream Overland and it won't be the last. Every part of our trip is taken care of by Jose. He always selects... read more the best of everything of your choice. We ask for bespoke local businesses to stay in and eat at. Perfection every time. Joses knowledge of the natural area and history of Portugal only adds to the adventure. Make sure you experience "back country" Portugal with Jose, its always a blast!

We have done two trips using road books created by Dream Overland as well as joining José on two trips. The road books were fantastic. Details of what to see,... read more where to eat as well as information about Portugal cannot be praised enough. The routes provided were accurate and easy to follow. José is always available in case of issues. Really enjoyed both of our trips. When travelling with Dream Overland I am always amazed at José's knowledge and passion about Portugal. I cannot recommend Dream Overland enough. If you want to explore Portugal book a trip with Dream Overland; you will not be disappointed.

Our recent trip through the Mountains of Portugal was a revelation. Jose provides so much more than interesting off road routes. With him you get a window into the rich... read more culture, gastronomy, history and the geology of Portugal. I cannot commend his services more highly. His knowledge of good places to eat is remarkable as well!

We've travelled with Jose five times and every time we have a fabulous time. Jose's research, attention to detail and adaptability are outstanding. On top of that, he is amazing... read more if there is a problem. I broke my leg on one of the trips and he went above and beyond in both helping me and running the trip for the rest of the guests. I cannot fault Jose in any way. It's like going on holiday with your favourite cousin.

Super helpful commenting on literally every spot in ioverlander that you can't camp in Portugal unless you're paying for the spot. Super. Helpful. Thanks. Edit I agree... read more and follow no overnights in a NP....but you defending an assine wild camping law that literally nobody follows and will likely be overturned....along with all of the campervan businesses that literally cater to it....give me a break....you should try to get it overturned instead of simping for it. The no wild camping rule should be an national embarrassment to you. It looks so tacky with you defending it. My guess is some sort of paid campground group put the financial backing behind that law to make it happen. You're redefining the definition of Overland....the act of camping in authorized spots only while traveling.
