View summary

Douro Valley

Life seems to run at a slower pace in the Douro Valley with incredible local produce and exceptional landscapes taking centre stage. A river cruise is a must-do and we can get you access to some of the most exclusive wineries for tastings. You can either self-drive or get a road transfer here and most hotels are around one and a half hours from Porto.

3 nights

Serra Da Estrela

Home to the highest point in Portugal, skiing in the winter and incredible hiking in the summer, this is one of the more off-the-beaten-track spots where rugged peaks and sprawling valleys create a wilderness sanctuary that calls to the intrepid souls. Immerse yourself in a world of dramatic landscapes, where ancient villages cling to the mountainside and starlit skies ignite the imagination.

3 nights

Alentejo

Made up of fantastic farms, a dramatic coastline and some incredible villages, this region is quickly becoming one of the best-known secrets in Europe. With exceptional local produce in the form of food and wine, there is little left wanting when staying here and it combines perfectly with Lisbon.
