Wonderful trip. Loved the culture and the food. A nice mix of cathedrals and castles and monasteries. Sintra was excellent and loved the Cork Farm tour and also the winery. River boat ride in Porto was good as well as the Port tasting. Excellent trip overall and exactly what I was expecting. Fredy was always available and communicative. He really made the trip spectacular.

GAdventures has managed (again) to send me on a journey worth taking. I enjoyed all aspects of our travels: accommodations, recommended restaurants, planned activities, suggested options and more. Two of the countries on our itinerary were new to me and I feel that the amount of time spent in the various locations is enough to give one a taste of what they're all about. The CEOs are great and an asset to the whole travel experience.
