Portugal Tours & Holidays

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.

Hike the Rota Vicentina in Portugal

Sonya · Traveled September 2023
As many have already said, the Rota Vicentina is indeed beautiful! Really, really beautiful. We were hiking the first week of September. The weather was great. We saw very few other hikers. I was worried before going that it might be too difficult for me, but it wasn’t. Walking on sand turns out to be kinder on your knees than pavement. Oswaldo is an enthusiastic and energetic guide; he’s interested in everyone enjoying themselves.

Hike the Rota Vicentina in Portugal

Sibylle · Traveled September 2023
I enjoyed the whole trip very much, I was not aware of how unpopulated and beautiful the area was! It was such a pleasant surprise and had a positive & calming effect! Oswaldo - BEST tourguide ever! He has a great knowledge of the area that he is always happy to share with his amazing ability to make everyone smile! He was able to deal with unexpected situations with great competence. Beautiful landscape and delicious seafood! Thank you Oswaldo & Intrepid :-) for an amazing week!

Premium Portugal

Sally · Traveled September 2023
This was a wonderful trip. It included all the highlights of Portugal and I got everything I expected and more out if it. The group we had was varied, fun and excellent. And everyone had the best attitude even when we had a bit of rain. Daniel was a wonderful trip leader. He was helpful, kind, organized and thorough. He enthusiastically assisted us with anything we needed, even after our trip. I can’t recommend this trip enough and can’t wait to come back. This is the 3rd Intrepid trip I’ve taken and Ive never been disappointed with the itinerary, accommodations, or leader quality. I’d do this trip again in a heartbeat.
