It was the trip to Porto with two stops in between (Óbidos and Nazaré). I didn’t take too long in those places because I had already gone a trip to there. The city was nice with not too much uphill walking. We got to see the two bridges and the Douro river with the boats going across.

Palace entry and a guided visit are included, as are air-conditioned van transport, water, and phone chargers. Guides such as Ricardo and Diogo have brought the route to life with Portuguese history, humor, and practical food tips.

“We had an awesome day despite the rainy day. The guide was punctual, knowledgeable and so friendly. The van was clean and comfortable which was good because you do spend at least a third of the day in the car. But it’s broken up nicely between the sites to stretch your legs and explore. The castle was the highlight! So amazing and the extra information from the guide was great. I wish the rain and clouds had allowed us to see the beautiful view better but it was still breathtaking a Cabo. And Cascais was a very nice little beach town. Highly recommend! We had a great day!!Read more”
