Why choose this experience

Adventure yourself in a Cultural, food and wine experience while in Lisbon area and then relax in the last haven of Europe: The Azores.  


History buffs, foodies and architecture lovers can never get enough of Lisbon. 

Crowned by the castle of Sao Jorge (Saint George), Portugal's heart is a colorful city of hills, beautiful vistas, unique neighborhoods, wonderful shops and historic monuments.


A solid stay in Lisbon, Europe’s second-oldest capital, starts with a half-day tour of highlights and then sets you free to explore independently. The city’s sights – from the castle of St. George to the cuisine of Mercado da Ribeira to cobbled streets and shops of Bairro Alto - are easily reached on foot or by tram.  

When you’ve seen, done and eaten it all, venture out for a day. Because of Portugal's compact size, visitors can tour many of its most popular destinations on a day tour and then return to their Lisbon hotel at night. This package includes a full-day tour to Sintra, Cascais and Evora. 

We also include a Fado show and dinner at typical reputable local restaurant in the Bairro Alto quarters. 


Next, feel the Nature around you and relax in the Azores, "Europe's Hawaii". Sao Miguel island is one of Portugal's best known secrets. It's luxurious green, hot thermal waters,  amazing vulcanic lagoons and the quality of the food will make want to stay forever.
