Includes rental car & accommodation

A Journey into the Heart of Authentic Portugal

Looking for a road trip through Portugal where you’re free to explore at your own pace? Choose an unforgettable fly & drive adventure from Porto to Lisbon. With your own rental car, you set the rhythm and discover the wonders of Portugal, your way.

Start your journey in Porto, the birthplace of port wine and home to the iconic Dom Luís I Bridge. Then drive south through the UNESCO-listed Douro Valley, known for its terraced vineyards. Northern Portugal invites you to uncover authentic villages and stunning viewpoints.

Continue on to Coimbra, a historic university town, then take in the spiritual aura of Fátima and the architectural beauty of the Batalha Monastery, another UNESCO treasure. Stay in Arganil, the green heart of Portugal, and enjoy a gourmet experience in Alvados.

Discover the fairytale palaces and lush gardens of Sintra, a true highlight of your trip. Finally, end your journey in Lisbon, the vibrant capital with its historic Alfama district and iconic landmarks. You might even opt for a day trip to Évora, a city of Roman ruins and medieval charm.

Highlights of this tour through Portugal

Porto

With its pastel-coloured houses, winding lanes and the scent of fresh bread in the air, Porto welcomes you with open arms. Stroll along the Douro River in the Ribeira district and sample port wine in one of the many traditional cellars. Porto is a city you don’t just visit—you feel it, you taste it, and you live it.

Arganil

In the Coimbra region, serenity surrounds you. Walk past the mystical Fraga da Pena waterfall or wander through the hidden trails of Mata da Margaraça. This is where time slows down and fresh mountain air fills your lungs. A paradise for nature lovers and hikers.

Belém

Belém is a historical gem. Admire the Jerónimos Monastery and the iconic Belém Tower—symbols of Portugal’s Age of Discovery. And of course, treat yourself to a pastel de nata, the creamy pastry that’s the perfect way to end your trip on a sweet note.
