Portugal | Oct 17 - Oct 26, 2024

Karin and Raquel did a great job putting together an amazing itinerary for our trip to Portugal. I tweaked it a couple of times and they were so accommodating and helpful. All of our drivers and guides were amazing.

Fernando showed us around Braga and Guimaraes, we had an amazing lunch and he showed us some local shops.
Nuno was a wealth of information as he showed us around Coimbra and the University. We then spent a day in the beautiful towns of Sintra and Cascais as we explored the gardens and Palace of Monserrate with our guide Nuno.
Next we were off to Nazare and Obidos with Paulo. What an amazing day! Obidos was incredibly beautiful with all of the blooming bougainvillea and quaint alleys and doorways. We had lunch in Nazare and went down to see the beach and waves. We met a local vendor and got some yummy treats and then continued exploring the coast.
Perfect day and Paulo is like family now :)

We also rented a car to drive down to Lagos to do some exploring on our own. There was a bit of a mix up with this but Paulo helped us out and got things squared away.

All of the accommodations were perfect.

We will definitely use KimKim again.

Loved the town of Sintra! and then we visited the Monserrate Palace with its beautiful gardens. Could have spent the whole day here, beautiful and not a lot of people which made it even better.
