Portugal
Thousands of years of history are on full display in vibrant Portugal, fast becoming one of the most popular tourist destinations in western Europe. Each region of Portugal offers something unique to the traveler, like unparalleled beaches and resorts in the Algarve; rolling plains that lead to mountains in the Alentejo; delicious food and drink in the Minho and the Douro River Valley; and of course the country`s bustling capital, Lisbon, which boasts the best of everything that Portugal has to offer, from restaurants to historical landmarks.
Cape Verde
Cape Verde, a chain of islands off the western coast of Africa, were unpopulated until the Portuguese colonized it in the 15th century, and Portuguese colonial influence can still be felt today. Sao Vicente and Sal are the two principal islands in the chain: Sao Vicente is home to the country`s two largest cities and tourism centers, Praia and Mindelo. Sal Island, known for its white sandy beaches, is one of the most wondrous island destinations to explore, starting with Santa Maria and traveling north to its capital, Espargos.

Trip Summary

Lisbon
Lisbon, a dazzling city stretching along 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. At night, yellow electric tramcars continue to wind their way up and down the hills in the sound of traditional Fado songs. Ample opportunities exist for seeing popular celebrations, for shopping, and for enjoying the nightlife along the riverbank.
