Already thinking about your holidays? Then let us make a suggestion: forget all about the pressures of time and enjoy some entirely new experiences, filled with perfect moments. Where? In the north and centre of Portugal, of course.
Replenish your energy levels in the midst of nature. The landscapes you’ll find in the Peneda-Gerês Natural Park or the Serra da Estrela are ideal settings for mountain biking, canoeing, trekking and even paragliding. Test your adrenalin levels and discover your limits.
Cross from one side of Portugal to the other by following the course of the River Douro. Stop at the different viewing points, marvel at the unforgettable landscape and take some of your best photos.
Porto and Coimbra are cities that are well worth exploring and make the best starting points for your tour. Travel around the country and discover well-preserved historical villages with their own surprisingly unique ways of life.
Turn every day into a festive occasion! St. Anthony, St. John and St. Peter provide the excuse for holding lively street parties throughout the month of June. Sing, dance and let yourself go. And why not take a pot of basil back with you to remind you of the smells of Portugal? |
