Desde as cidades de contos de fadas com torres e torreões e as luxuriantes vinhas férteis do Douro até às antiquíssimas ruas elegantes de Lisboa e à paradisíaca costa do Algarve, Portugal oferece um caleidoscópio de paisagens, sabores e cultura que agradará a todo o tipo de palato.
What to see…
clássicos
Jerónimos Monastery is a masterpiece by anyone’s standards having taken 100 years to complete, and is a perfect example of Manueline architecture (unique to Portugal). Our advice is to get there early as lines can be long and you don’t want to be hanging around in the Lisbon heat. And don’t forget, it’s closed on Mondays.
A trip along the magnificent and watery Duoro Valley is great for wine and heritage lovers alike. Stop by quaint vineyards and taste port wine or experience the wonderful city of Porto, where the river escapes into the Atlantic Ocean.
