What people love about Portugal Tours in October
- Portugal: Lisbon, All-inclusive Algarve w/Douro valley cruise
Best Trip to Portugal!! My husband and I had an amazing trip to Portugal!! The Tour company took care of every little detail so we could just relax and enjoy the trip. We met so many new friends on the different daily tours and the hotels and transportation are top notch! If we ever had a question we could just message them and they got right back to us! They go ABOVE AND BEYOND to help in any way!! We will definitely use them in the future! Thank you so much for a wonderful trip !!
- Walking in Madeira
Very enjoyable and challenging. Group size excellent and social occasions planned with skill and knowledge. All team members were included and catered for.
- Best of the Azores: 7 days in São Miguel
One of the best holidays I ever had. The guides were very nice,local and knowledgeable. Food throughout was really good and the hotel had a great location with the plus of a pool. Cant thank Portugal Travel Center enough for the care and attention to my requests.
