Beautiful Portugal

Oct 18 - Nov 2, 2022
Tiago incorporated all the places we wanted to see and arranged tours to do all the things we we asked for. All the hotels were wonderful. The port tasting and food tours were great with the best one in being in Lisbon, but the cork farm was a highlight for me. Nothing would have been as seamless, if we didn’t have Diogo taking us all over Portugal and explaining the culture. As a bonus he took us to a bar to see a soccer game. He shared all the history of his beloved country and knew every building, statue, river, bridge etc. Diogo enhanced the whole experience.
Hotel Reviews
Beautiful setting and view. Nice restaurant.
The location ended up being good. We had a nice walk to the soccer bar from the hotel and also to another location the next day. They were very welcoming at check in with port.
Beautiful hotel and setting. The nicest room.
The art deco features were authentic and well done but the toilets and shower could be updated.
Good location and helpful staff. Sweet treats were delivered to the room every afternoon.
Activity Reviews
It was just ok. Nothing special. The food market was nice.
The history was informative. The port was delicious.
Not worth it. Repeat of the same info.
Loved the enthusiasm of our guide. She explained in great detail how the farm worked and all the extra things that were done in addition to the details of cork harvesting and the many ways cork can be used.
Excellent food in welcoming places
Good overview of Lisbon. Loved seeing the old town and Jewish section, Belem, the Coach museum. Diogo took us to all the mentioned places plus the overlook of the whole multi colored buildings and river.
The fado was well done but no explanation. The food was terrible.
Dear Robin,
Thank you so much for your kind words!
I'm glad you enjoyed your tour and that Diogo helped to make it more special. I'll definitely let him know about it!
Please send my regards to the whole group!
Best,
Tiago
