What people love about Portugal Tours in January
- Best of Portugal
One of the best Solo travel ( then joining a group?) I ever did.Been traveling since I was 27, am 56 now.. every birthday month of mine I treat myself on seeing beautiful countries I’ve never been. Am glad I found this site and this tour. The tour itinerary was great, the tour guide is great we all love her ( Myriam ), and our driver ( Hrui). I love small group guided tour. In this tour I met incredible people that become my new friends. We consider each other our Portugal family?..
- Northern Portugal Discovery
Cristina led a well-organized, educational, and fun tour. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our six-day adventure. Lodging was nice, particularly our final night in exquisite Hotel Urgeirica. Our driver Pedro was very helpful with luggage and accommodating. On a couple of occasions Cristina shared jewels of restaurants to enjoy lunches. We’ve lived in and been all over Europe: Portugal is our favorite of all! Thank you for the wonderful experience. Our vacation was fabulous.
- North of Portugal
I would have enjoyed it much more had we visited less churches and more actual cities and castles
