Ecotura

We are located on the only National Park of Portugal, Peneda-Gerês, surround of pure nature and wild animals.
We are a family company that loves animals, and we moved from the capital, Lisbon, to the mountains, chasing our dream.
When we receive our guests, we treat them like family, and this is one of the things that makes the difference, and when you meet our horse family you will fall in love :P

Our Worldpackers will be treated like family, and they will be well received. We will share knowledge and for sure they will have an amazing time at our place

Fue una experiencia inolvidable! Me encantó conectar con los caballos y el hermoso paisaje que rodea el lugar. Tuve la oportunidad de conocer la cultura local y de crear una muy linda amistad con la otra voluntaria con la que compartimos tareas.
Mariana, Pedro y Lisa, los hosts, son personas maravillosas y muy generosas que siempre se preocuparon por mi bienestar y comodidad en su hogar además de enseñarme muchísimo sobre el cuidado de los caballos.
Estoy muy agradecida con ellos por darme la oportunidad de vivir esta experiencia!

This was my first experience with worldpackers and I am so glad it was with Pedro and Mariana they are really kind and always make sure you are good, and have all that you need, even when I was alone for the first week they made me feel comfortable.
The work was really not that difficult you have to take care of the horses feed clean around a bit it’s really not too time consuming and it leaves you with almost all the rest of the day to roam around or do some work if you have.
I really recommend this experience to anyone who likes horses if your lucky Pedro could give you a riding class.

I had a great 2 weeks at Ecotura! The location is beautiful, and I got to connect with nature a lot (mountains, waterfalls, etc). Mariana and Pedro were respectfully-strict, so we always knew what was expected of us work-wise, but if we ever made a mistake, they treated it as a learning lesson and were never mean. Mariana always had funny stories to share, and Pedro gave us really good life advice. They’re both super kind people who treat their animals very well, and I look up to them a lot :) They were also kind enough to let me ride with them in the mountains twice, which was beautiful!!!!

I had a lovely time Volunteering with Marianna and Pedro at their home. The working hours are well respected and the work is very manageable. The horses are vibrant with different personalities. The area is quiet but beautiful with lots of hidden gems. I’d definitely recommend this experience if you love horses, nature and don’t mind being alone!

It has been a very good stay. I loved the work I had to do, it was something very calm and quick to do; rather than working I would describe it as "taking care of your horses" and it is literally like that. We have a lot of free time so I recommend taking a book or once there, walking around and discovering the surroundings.
Mariana is very friendly, she will always do her best for you and will give you everything you need during your stay. Pedro has taught me many things that I didn't know I would learn in 10 days, what I liked most about him is his patience.
