Portugal has quickly become one of our most-requested destinations over the past few years. Once a well-kept secret, it now draws travelers in with storybook villages, dramatic coastlines, and world-class cuisine.
Our clients Chris and Art Nezu discovered its charm during a March trip we planned for them. Spring proved the perfect season—sunny, mild days without the summer crowds—ideal for those who prefer culture and history over beach lounging.
Their Journey…
Cascais – After a seamless airport transfer, they settled into a glamorous 5-star resort overlooking the bay. A spa treatment eased away jet lag before they embarked on a private sunset yacht cruise—sparkling wine in hand and a skipper in charge so they could enjoy romantic time together as the sun set on the horizon.
Sintra – One of the most romantic villages in the world, Sintra is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. With a private guide, they saw the highlights of this beautiful city, including a tour of the magical Pena Palace. By staying overnight, they experienced the village in its most romantic, crowd-free light. They said it was a personal favorite aspect of their trip.
The Algarve – From their luxury sea-view hotel Chris and Art wandered through several charming seaside towns. They boarded a boat tour we had pre-arranged and cruised to dramatic cliffs and hidden sea caves considered to be some of the most unique in the world.
Lisbon – No trip to Portugal is complete without time spent in lively Lisbon. Their trip concluded with a guided tasting tour through the capital: local delicacies, port wine, local Faro music and centuries of history woven into every street. That iconic cobblestone just never gets old!
