What people love about Portugal Tours in October
- Portugal By High-Speed Train
It was very good and it was exactly what we were looking for.
- Highlights of Portugal
Our tour CEO, Daniel, was so thoughtful and easy-going. In each city we visited, we would get an orientation walk on the first day and then plenty of freedom to explore. Daniel would still arrange casual meal times and exploration together, but he was also very flexible in letting us choose our own activities. He would make various suggestions, which helped us make decisions more easily. This type of tour is most suitable for people who prefer independent exploration to guided tours.

I liked the trip but not. My roommate. Next time I will not share....
