Most travelers who visit Portugal get to see Lisbon and Porto, but what about the hidden gems? These towns and cities are located along the coast, in the interior plains of the Alentejo, and on Portugal's wild Azores Islands. Many are integral to modern Portuguese history, from its past as a maritime empire and others from the times of the Moors and Romans. These lesser-known attractions go beyond the popular tourist destinations to get to the heart of Portugal. Best of all, they offer unique experiences and opportunities to connect with the country’s culture and natural beauty.
Please note we do not offer hotels or activities in all of these cities at this time.

<b>Lisbon</b>, a dazzling city stretching along the Tagus river, makes an enchanting European capital. Its nucleus, an ancient fortress, is now circled by neighborhoods drenched with medieval charm. Handcrafts - from embroidery to leatherwork - are peddled right on the streets.
