From start to finish Discover Portugal was a great 10 days. Our tour leader Sonia allowed our tour to run seamlessly as we moved from the south of Portugal to the north discovering many interesting places, learning the history and the day to day lives of Portuguese families. We visited the large cities which was fun, but I really enjoyed the small villages which were close by our accommodation. The walking tours we did with historians were very interesting as were the walking tours we did with Sonia. Our driver, Pedro was great. Accommodation, breakfast and included dinners were also great. This was my second trip with Back Roads.
