Portugal Tours & Vacations

A perfect little pocket of European bliss.

It’s not just the birds that are heading south – flocks of travellers have discovered that Spain’s little neighbour packs a mighty punch. A country of historically mixed fortunes, Portugal is having a moment in the spotlight which will almost certainly linger. From the Algarve’s dramatic coastline to the terraces of the Douro Valley wine region, from Lisbon’s steep cobbled streets to the Azores’ volcanic peaks, Portugal is packed with history, beauty and some of the most welcoming people you’ll ever encounter. And the food? Just you wait.

Portuguese Camino

Heather · Traveled May 2023
Highly recommend this trip and our leader, Mariela! I learned so much and loved the beautiful scenery, delicious food, and welcoming spirit of the Galician people. Two highlights for me were meeting a hermit monk at a retreat center along The Way and attending a Galician folk festival. The trip was challenging but well-paced and planned. Every detail was thought of. I had one minor problem (not because of Intrepid) and Mariela quickly helped me with it. She’s a treasure and I’d definitely book another trip with Intrepid in the future, especially if Mariela led it. I felt safe, care for, and part of the group, even though I came alone. You will not regret walking The Way.

My first trip with Intrepid was a fantastic experience. The group was very friendly and consisted of people all around the world. Of special note was our exceptional guide Mariela. Her energy, organization and thoughtfulness made the tour an amazing experience.

Hike the Rota Vicentina in Portugal

Philippa · Traveled May 2023
This is an amazing hike along the coast of Portugal. The “Rota” is wild and beautiful. The going is tough at times but the scenery and delicious seafood make it all worthwhile. We visited lovely seaside villages and stayed in some great places along the way. If you love the sea this is a must do trip.
