Portugal: From the Tagus Valley to the Douro Valley Route, tailor-made by car

Come and savour the best of Portugal from the banks of the Tagus to the Douro. You'll start off in the capital Lisbon, a beautiful city spread across seven hills and where the tram is one of its most charismatic means of transport. Discover its most emblematic sights, its fascinating culture, its seafaring history and its romantic fados. Porto, the second largest city in the country, is also famous for fados. Get ready to enjoy an intense journey on which you'll discover some of the inland treasures of Portugal: magnificent castles such as Beja and Castelo de Vide; palaces such as Mafra; the Jewish Quarter of Belmonte; and medieval cities such as Vila-Real and Évora. The latter is also the second city of Portugal with the most national monuments (after Lisbon). Thanks to your rental car, you'll arrive to the beautiful Dão area to see its vineyards and taste its wines in Viseu, where you can also buy the best handicrafts in the region. Portugal is culture, but also coast. So, there's nothing better than enjoying a couple of days on the Algarve surrounded by nature and picturesque villages oozing tradition and history, such as Portimão and Lagos. Switch off from the stress of work on stunning beaches like Albufeira or Praia da Rocha! Portugal is also packed with curiosities just waiting to be discovered. The country has its very own Venice, aka the romantic coastal town of Aveiro. And also its version of Oxford in Coimbra, the former capital of the country and home to the oldest Portuguese university. Not forgetting its own Lourdes in Fatima, a world-famous pilgrimage site and one of the most religious cities in the country. A truly unique trip that fuses history, culture, fun, beaches, nature and cuisine. Discover the most authentic Portugal on this outstanding tour.
