Travel through time and wine...
From its Moorish roots to its rich history of winemaking, Portugal is a country and a trip like no other. Beautiful scenery and amazing wines are just the beginning of what this incredible culture has to offer.
This adventure will take you on a journey through the Douro Valley, home to the renowned fortified Port wines as well as incredible table wines, to the historic city of Porto at the mouth of the Douro River. Tour the ancient streets and taste wines in the famous Port houses along the riverbank. From there we explore the Vinho Verde region, then head back to spend three days in the vibrant and beautiful city of Lisbon. Be ready to explore, shop and taste your way through the city and beyond, as we use Lisbon as a base for day trip excursions and more wine discovery.
Simply a spectacular serenade of the senses, your adventure will leave you with a sense of wonder and appreciation for this country and its culture.
