Country Roads of Portugal
About This Trip
Tantalise your senses during this 11-day guided women-only tour through Portugal. On this small group tour, a Local Expert will show you Lisbon’s historic downtown and Belém Quarter. From the hilltop perch of Monsaraz, see across the Spanish plains beyond Alqueva Lake — and meet a local boat captain, who will regale you with tales of water adventures during a cruise on its calm waters. In Tomar, choose to explore the Templar Castle’s awe-inspiring rotunda with a Local Expert, or visit the Synagogue of Tomar during a guided walk through the city’s cobblestone streets. Indulge in a Farm-to-Table dinner in the Douro Valley that will feature locally sourced ingredients, and taste a port produced onsite. Taste port wine at Antónia Adelaide Ferreira’s cellars, and stroll through Porto, a World Heritage town, before relaxing in your five-star hotel in the city’s cultural centre.
