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.

We had a great day in Sintra with our driver Bruno- he was very professional. He timed the site visits perfectly so we were easily able to spend time at the Moorish Castle, Pena Palace, and Quinta da Regaleira in one day, with a break for a delicious lunch in Sintra and a stop to wander in town. He even treated us to our first taste of Ginjinha! Thank you, Bruno for an unforgettable day to a beautiful place!
The amount of time spent each stop. Very informative places to see. Accommodation was excellent. Tour director organized well. Some places when meals on our own, poor food choices. Some places one night not enough.
