Experience Portugal at its most captivating on this week-long journey through its historic cities, golden coastline, and celebrated wine regions.
Begin in Lisbon,Portugal’s iconic capital city and cultural hub. Explore the cobbled streets of Alfama, listen to the haunting sounds of Fado in Chiado, and watch the sunset from a rooftop overlooking the Tagus River. Along the coast, Cascais and Estoril capture the elegance of old Portugal, while nearby Sintra enchants with its pastel palaces and fairytale landscapes.
Continue north to Porto, where blue-tiled façades and riverside views create a mood that feels both nostalgic and new. Here, you’ll explore the city’s UNESCO-listed old town and enjoy an exclusive port tasting at one of its most prestigious wine lodges.
Finally, journey into the Vinho Verde region for intimate vineyard experiences and genuine hospitality – the kind that defines Portugal.
Arrive in Lisbon and transfer privately to Heritage Avenida Liberdade, a boutique hotel in the heart of the city. After settling in, begin your journey with an evening of Fado in Chiado, where local singers and musicians bring this UNESCO-recognised art form to life. Enjoy fine wine and a soulful performance before returning to your hotel for a peaceful night’s rest.
Discover Lisbon’s layers of history with your private guide. Explore the maze-like streets of Alfama, admire panoramic views from Miradouro da Senhora do Monte, and visit the city’s architectural treasures such as Belém Tower and the Jerónimos Monastery. Learn about Portugal’s seafaring legacy at the Monument to the Discoveries before enjoying time at leisure to shop, dine, or unwind before returning to your hotel.
Follow the coastline to Estoril and Cascais, seaside towns known for their relaxed atmosphere. Continue to Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of continental Europe, before arriving in Sintra, home to several of Portugal’s palaces. Visit the colorful Pena Palace and wander through the charming old town before returning to Lisbon for your final evening in the capital.
Venture north by train to Porto, where a private transfer takes you to The Editory Boulevard Aliados Hotel, a contemporary retreat in the heart of the city. That afternoon, cross the river to Graham’s Port Lodge for a private tasting of rare vintages, paired with delicious local cheeses and chocolates. Spend the evening strolling the lively Ribeira waterfront or dining at one of Porto’s acclaimed restaurants – the choice is yours.
Explore Porto’s atmospheric streets with a local guide. Visit Porto Cathedral, Batalha Square, and Liberdade Avenue, and stop at one of the pretty cafés along Santa Catarina Street. Down by the river, Ribeira Square offers a perfect place to pause over coffee and pastries while watching boats drift along the Douro. Return to your hotel for an afternoon of leisure or optional spa time.
Venture into the rolling hills of the Vinho Verde region, known for its light, crisp wines and welcoming hospitality. Stop in Amarante, a charming medieval town, before visiting family-run vineyards for tastings and a traditional lunch prepared by the winemakers themselves. The day balances culinary indulgence with a deeper appreciation of Portugal’s rural traditions, before returning to Porto for your final night.
After breakfast, a private transfer will take you to Porto Airport for your onward journey. As you leave, reflect on your week filled with timeless cities, scenic coastlines, and moments of genuine connection – the very essence of Portugal.
