Overview
This tour will bring you seven days of pure visiting fun. We will cover historical, cultural and traditional Portugal.
We start in the capital Lisbon, with its seven hills and the magic of its day-light, covering also the cosmopolitan surrounding areas of Cascais and Estoril and the romantic world of Sintra.
Porto will be our next destination: the city of the Douro River, Port wine, Lello’s Bookstore and Ribeira. We set aside a day to enjoy the Douro Valley, a unique landscape built over thousands of years and generations, a place where Port wine rules.
The Minho region is introduced through the city of Guimaraes, the “cradle” of Portuguese Nation and Braga, the city of the archbishops.
Then we head south, stopping at some amazing cities and villages like Aveiro, the Portuguese Venice, and Obidos the walled-in medieval town.
Let us drive you in the comfort of a Mercedes-Benz vehicle, with AC and WiFi, and be escorted by one of our certified professional driver-guides.
