Luis Rodrigues

Founder, driver, local guide and photographer

Hi there! This is me, born and raised in Avelar, a small old village in central Portugal, with a tradition in the wool industry. It was with my father, driver of one of these companies, that I began to discover the country during the school holidays.
From it I also inherited the taste for photography and the search for the authentic.

I live on passions and emotions. They both live hand in hand on every trip I take.

Passion for all that is beautiful, has been created by man or nature. Emotion in every hug and every smile, every dawn and dusk.

Passion for photography that allows me to record all this, creating memories and telling stories. Emotion in remembering lived experiences!

I believe life is made up of experiences. A walk through breathtaking scenarios, tasting a wine with centuries of work, a steaming roast whose recipe has passed from generation to generation, a castle where you can almost hear the cries of battles of yore...
And then, curiosity: where does that road go? What's out there on that hill? Who lives in that village? I'm going to find out! Find out to meet. Meet to share with you!

This is WellCam's philosophy, my starting point, that leads me to want to show the charms and corners of my country. A country that I want to be also your country while you're here, watching it, living it, tasting it, smells it, eats it, contemplates it and feels it.
Come with me!

We only do private tours with solo people or very small groups (families, friends). This way, everything is easier, safer, personal, authentic!

The world opens up a little more when we are few: we can make better use of the time available, the weather, notice the details and walk according to your preferences. Also, you can always change whatever you want without any problem!

Relax! You don't have to worry about traffic, speed limits, parking, alcohol... Only then can you enjoy a good meal accompanying with a good wine!

We don't just know the locals. We know those special places that make the experience unique!

You're going to take home your best photos, so you can print them, share them with your friends and family, and you can remember those moments later!
