About this trip
Nine days across Portugal, moving from the historic towns of Alentejo to the streets of Lisbon, then up to Porto's wine country along the Douro Valley.
Expect a mix of city time, coastal charm in Estoril and Cascais, and the hilltop palaces of Sintra, with wine estate visits woven into the Porto leg.
The route runs either direction, so you can start in Porto and end in Lisbon or the other way round, with the itinerary tailored to suit.
What you'll do
- Explore Lisbon's historic centre
- Wander the old towns of Alentejo
- Stroll the seaside promenades of Estoril and Cascais
- Visit the palaces and gardens of Sintra

- Requires a minimum of 2 passengers to run
Worth it if you want local expertise and seamless logistics in a beautiful country. Think twice if you prefer depth over breadth or dislike long driving days.
- Local guides customise tours on the fly—knowing where to park, best food stops, and neighbourhood shortcuts.
- Central, quality accommodation throughout; hotels consistently excellent, safe, walkable to shops and sights.
- Some days are long and car-heavy; you'll spend significant time driving between towns rather than exploring depth.
- Coordination gaps occur with small groups: some activities duplicated, payment inclusions inconsistent, guide briefing occasionally patchy.
