Best of Portugal

Tour Director and Bus Driver were awesome. They made everything memorable and enjoyable, even when things didn't go right with our hotels. I think it's way too busy and would have liked two days stay rather than packing up after only one night. There are places I would not stay at like Fatima as it was definitely worth going to and experiencing, there is nothing to do or see outside the hotel to experience where as Nazare would have been a better option. We found all the guides extremely friendly and knowledgeable but went into far too much detail that we lost interest whilst walking around. That is our only real criticism. Less is best. Our favourite part was definitely the wonderfully fresh Portuguese custard tarts we received from Nuno and the horse stud experience with the local family. Oh and Monserrate Sintra was very worth it.❤️ Whilst we loved the tour, we felt exhausted after it as you don't stop. We needed a weeks rest to get over it. But Portugal is beautiful!

It efficiently hit the highlights of the country of Portugal. It showed us that the Portuguese are proud of being Portuguese, come from a long and varied history and have much to offer the world. There are such beautiful areas of olive trees, eucalyptus, and cork trees and vineyards and wind farms. We purchased this tour because we wanted to get a sample of the entire country from north to south and this Trafalgar tour delivered.

was the best travel director we had among the four trafalgar group we had joined. He was very professional in his treatment of his clientele. His instructions to the group covered the valuable reasons of the why & how of such instructions. He is upfront to the information he is sharing. He is formally but pleasantly on the level on what he is imparting to you, he does not sugar coat anything he says. He was always on the look out for the safety of the group as staying behind the group whenever we are lead by the local specialist in the front. He is considerate of the group's comfort as time is given to rest after a tiring local visit that he does not give us unnecessary talks after such events. We also loved our driver who not only drove with excellent skills but was pleasant & courteous as well.

Best of Portugal was a great tour. The tour director, *personal info removed by Feefo, was very knowlegeable. *personal info removed by Feefo, our driver, was amazing. How he managed to drive the coach down some of the narrow streets was incredible. The tour specialists in each are were so knowledgeable and the history was amazing. This was the first bus tour i have been on and it exceeded my expectations. I will travel with Trafalgar again.

It was well organized by , TD

I did enjoy my trip, however there were too many people on the tour for my liking. I also would have enjoyed more off the beaten path things to see or do. Bike rides, something more adventurous. Also museums. Way too many Churches and religious sites. That many weren’t mentioned in the brochure. I wasn’t very impressed with the meals I paid extra for. I discovered I’m not a tour person and prefer to plan my own travels so I can do the things I want on my time schedule. Our tour guide was great as was the bus driver. Did learn some interesting facts.

Great itinerary but very little personal “down time” to explore, shop or chill out on your own..

Excellent Guide and great bus driver. Explored some out of the tourist places as well as the scheduled ones. A good cross section of Portugal. The sites, wineries and restaurants were very good. A couple of places maybe we could have left a little later and reduced some time at some of the stopovers. All in all and enjoyable experience and well worth doing. Thank you to all involved and the good company.

We have been home for 2 weeks and are still recalling with joy all the beautiful sites we enjoyed on this trip! , our guide, was thorough, so well natured and personable as he guided us through his beautiful native land. He was always attentive and positive in his interactions with every passenger. His friendly and charming rapport with our driver, Fernando was always entertaining and we always felt like we were in good hands. The towns, cities, sites and dining experiences were well chosen to give us “The Best of Portugal!”

Compared to other tour operators, Trafalgar stood out by providing quality hotels, delicious food, and well-organized visits to historical sites.

It was a fabulous trip exploring Portugal. was the best tour director. We saw incredible sights and monuments, tasted beautiful food, visited quaint villages and cities and learnt alot about Portugese history and the culture.It was all very easy for the traveler… hotels, cases, food etc all taken care of. We were given enough free time to explore on our own terms. I highly recommend this tour.

It was a pleasant trip, our director gave us all the best attention and information about the places that we were going to visit!

Trafalgar's "Best of Portugal" tour ranks as one of my favorite! I fell in love with the country, the people, history and wine, thanks to the numerous outstanding experiences offered, including the many UNESCO heritage sites. Our tour director and local specialists were excellent, passionate! Our driver was top-notch, highly skilled and very polite. It felt like each day was uniquely special full of amazing surprises, what a gift!

The liquor and jam tasting were not worth it. That extra excursion really discouraged me. I also did not like that there was so little time to walk some of the places and eat. You either ate or explored. I had to eat because I was on medication, so I never had time to explore. I think that if you will stop at a place to have lunch, there should also be another hour for exploring.

Great service for a great price !!!! It was a real pleasure to travel the whole Portugal in 10 days ! The tour director is professional, funny, respectful and above all, a good-hearted human being.

Not enough on the Romans and the Moors
