- KFKaren· October 13th, 2024Really enjoyed this tour. Our tour guide Mercedes was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful with restaurant and activity recommendations. Overall the itinerary was good. One suggestion I would make is to spread out some scheduled activities over a couple of days. There were some days where too much was planned in one day so it was difficult to cover everything well. Then a whole day was left as free time which was too much. Our guide was able to move things around so that we had less free time on one day but able to do everything well. That flexibility was very good.Show moreExplore! commented on this reviewThank you so much for your kind feedback! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the tour and that Mercedes provided such knowledgeable and friendly guidance, along with great local recommendations. It’s fantastic that this flexibility helped balance... Show moreTrip date: August 2024
- APeter· May 14th, 2023I particularly enjoyed the winery trip in the Douro valley and the panorama from the top of the bridge in Porto was spectacular. I enjoyed strolling around Lisbon and Coimbra was also a lovely place to visit. The hotel in Lisbon was very good and excellently situated. The group travelled independently to Sintra and that was also a highlight for us.Show moreTrip date: May 2023Review collected by Explore!

- ADonna· August 27th, 2023Ahhh...the highlights!! For me the architecture and history were the best part. Everything we saw was put into an historical context which is something extremely important to me. It also laid the groundwork for our next Explore trip to Patagonia. I love knowing about the connections and influences of one culture to all the others:)Show moreTrip date: August 2023Review collected by Explore!
