    Very enjoyable experience. We did not realise that it would be very much a private tour, expecting it to be a small group not just the 2 of us. Excellent accommodation & great guides. We learned so much about Portugal & its wine production. Loved the port & wines. Only issue was on the first night in Porto there was a welcome dinner, but the restaurant was closed.

    We basically asked Daniela to arrange our entire family trip for us. Different family members arrived at different days and times in Lisboa. Daniela arranged everything, pick ups, hotels, dinners, transfers, wineries and picnics. It was an absolutely fabulous experience and very little detail was so well taken care of. Thank you, Daniela.

    Dani provided me with a customized plan for my trip to Portugal. The travel package I received was high quality and very detailed. Every single guide, driver, hotel etc… recommended by Portugal Travel Center were top notch. All services were on time, professional, pleasant, funny and knowledgable. More importantly, when I ran into a few hick ups of my own doing, Daniella was quick to reply, advise and provide solutions. When I decided I’d rather stay in one place rather than follow the initial plan, she helped me rearranged things on the fly. She was knowledge, helpful and patient. I had a wonderful time in Portugal and I don’t think I could have have done as well without Portugal Travel Center's help. I hope to be able to return as I feel I barely scratch the surface of this beautiful country and its long history. Thank you!

    Hi Johanne, Have to say it goes both ways, thank you for the calls, it helped to get to know your interests which is halfway for the perfect itinerary. The other halfway is Portugal by itself, surely you agree! :) All the best Johanne! Dani

    This was an excellent tour and highly recommended for others. The itinerary left open time which we filled with day tours out of both Porto and Douro. The hotels were well located and were nice 4 star accommodations. The itinerary was detailed and well organized with clear instructions. We can't wait to return to Portugal - we loved our visit!

    This is an independent tour but includes all the transfers, hotels, activities and private guided day tours, not a hop on a bus for 7 day tour, which we really enjoyed. The views were amazing and can't fault any of what Portugal Travel Center put in place for us. Absolutely recommend this tour and would do it again without hesitation.

    Beautiful itinerary with lots to see, do and eat. Douro was amazing even in a rainy day and we absolutely loved the picnic and all the wine tastings, each bringing different experiences and really showing us the amazing wines of the area. Recommended to everyone who wants to enjoy a in depth taste of Northern Portugal. Great communication with tourradar and Daniella from Portugal Travel Center.

    Asked on September 27th, 2024

    I am interested in the Best of North Portugal tour and I'd like to know if I can change the itinerary slightly. We will be a party of 6 or 7 next June/July and we'd like to add another stop at the end of the tour to a neighboring town in northern Portugal. Can you arrange that? No…but one additional comment—we could substitute Travasos for the last stop on the existing itinerary: Guimaraes, if that would be ok.
