Overview

Lisboa, Coimbra, Porto – three magnificent, exciting cities in one compact tour.

Tour Highlights
  • Cities full of life; from lively bars to fado shows

  • Lisboa, Sintra and the beaches nearby

  • Coimbra University – buildings, views & student culture

  • Wild Atlantic coast – never far away!

Lisboa, Portugal’s great capital city, once gateway to the oceans is now the height of fashion with its fado-filled taverns, charming neighbourhoods and pretty trams struggling up vertiginous hills.

Smaller and more accessible Coimbra, home to Portugal’s oldest University, has much to offer with medieval convents and churches, museums and art galleries.

Finish your trip in Porto, the country’s second city with its famous Old Town and Ribeira neighbourhoods and wine lodges lining the bank of the Douro river.

The full route takes a week but you can do as little, or as much, as you like.
