The tour included a variety of experiences. It was a busy schedule designed to see much of Portugal which I wanted.
the tour director was excellent. She was professional yet able to relate to others on a personal level.
was an excellent trouble ******* when presented by unexpected challenges.
manouvered the bus expertly. He was efficient loading the cases. He was also polite and helpful getting off the bus.
It was a very inclusive trip. I felt I really got to know the cuisine and culture. We explored the different regions and the countryside is stunning. The picture is the view from my hotel balcony.
Although described as a fast paced tour(which it was), it was a good introduction to visiting Portugal with many highlights as well as vising some lesser known parts. As someone who had not been to Portugal before and as it is so easy to get to from the UK, it was a taster for maybe visiting the country again and exploring other regions.
Art lovers like me, this one’s for you. Portugal dazzled with art and faith. Two features jumped out immediately: Lisbon’s Monastery of Jeronimos, a Manueline masterpiece and Fatima, a place of deep meaning. Wandering Nazare’s windy cliffs and watching Atlantic surf pound felt elemental.
Obidos’ castle and ramparts invited daydreams of knights and medieval poets. The Gothic arches of Batalha took my breath away. Porto's tile-covered churches and artistic heritage felt soulful as we sampled local port wines beside the Douro River.
The highlight was Coimbra, Europe’s amazing academic city, steeped in history and tradition. The old university chapel’s 18th-century Portuguese Baroque design left me speechless.
Guides were enthusiastic and informative. If you love art, faith, and ocean air, this tour is a rich tapestry not to be missed.
Very well organised tour. Excellent guide who was very knowledgeable and had strong management skills. Both the guide, Adrian and the support person Djon had a great sense of humour and responded well to the needs of the group.
The itinerary was busy, always on the go. How I wish there were more times to do shopping.
Some hotels can be better. But our travel director, *Personal details removed by Feefo* and Coach driver, *Personal details removed by Feefo* , were fantastic.

The unique feature is its focus on northern Portugal’s cultural and historical highlights, making it a top choice for those wishing to delve deeper into the region’s charm.
Really enjoyed this tour. Itinerary was great. Pace was right, and our tour leader was amazing. Will definitely come back to Spain and Portugal again. Touring Morocco was great too, and very different from travelling in Europe. Had I done this tour as a single traveller it would have costed me a lot more, so got value for money as well. Will soon book my next trip. Recommended.
