We've all seen our friends' photos of the stunning architecture, white-sand beaches, fado music, and medieval fortresses. The food, the wine, the dancing, the narrow streets, the romance, the real "Portuguese " culture, the beauty at every turn... followed up with an emphatic "I could live there!". This is the Portugal we know and love and can't wait to experience with you, whether you're a first time visitor to Portugal, or a tenth. Portugal is a rare less developed country that will steal a piece of your heart and sure you will want to come back to see more of the country.
Our trips through Portugal will encompass the two largest cities of Lisbon and Porto. Both have there own identity, culture, traditions and local food and wines as two regions of the diverse country.
