A rich excursion program in different cities of Portugal

I found a tour of the action "Towards the wave!" from Lusitana Sol almost by accident. I looked at their website for information on Portugal and saw discounts on some tours.

I consulted over the phone and they quickly completed all the documents for me. Insurance is also included. I paid online with a card. No problem. I chose an additional excursion already in Portugal and paid extra to the guide.

I chose a cheaper option in a large group and with accommodation in three-star hotels. We were met at the airport, instructed, handed out programs, taken to hotels, quickly settled. There is still time to walk.

On the second day we were taken to Nazar - an amazing place! The waves are really impressive. Some are intimidating. And they weren't even the biggest ones. By the way, in the summer, they said that they are smaller. The ocean there is special, of course, in winter we did not swim, but only watched the surfers in wetsuits. Gave free time to walk along the shore.

On the third day, I added an excursion to Setúbal. This is for the whole day. It is not included in the main program. I advise you not to give up. Delicious lunch, tour of the winery and wine tasting included. The fortress is not very memorable, but the views from the observation deck are magnificent.

The next day we were transferred to Porto, and on the way we called in Coimbra, Fatima and descended into the caves. They are small, but quite interesting. Fatima is not like other cities in Portugal, it is useful to stop by to better understand Portugal and the Portuguese.

I left the next day free, just walked around the center. And on the last day in Porto, we had a tour of the main attractions. But it would be better if it was held on the first day for a common understanding. Well, as it is. They also took us on a boat ride along the river, took us to a port wine tasting. Almost everyone took the opportunity to buy good wines.

The price is lower than in city stores and duty free. The tour was led by Lucia, who feels that she loves the city and I also felt warm feelings for him. But at first Porto seemed to me gloomy, wet, chaotically built, and even full of impudent seagulls. On the same day we were transferred to Lisbon, and the next day we had an excursion with Natalia Silvestre. This guide is a treasure trove of information. But she turned out to be strict towards violators of discipline from our group. There were such)) I myself was the last one to rush out of the store.

On the last day, I saw the End of the World, which I so expected. This is Cape Roca. The weather was windy and rainy, but still great. And it seems that there is nothing further in the ocean. In other words, the end of the earth. I really liked the Regaleira estate, where there are very strange wells and dark caves. It's a pity that little time is given to her. You can walk all day long.

In the evening we were taken to the airport.

I managed to get taxi-free, although it is a chore there.

In general, I am very satisfied with the trip, now I want to repeat in the summer or autumn to see other places. And then there are Madeira and the Azores. I will most likely choose the same tour operator. I subscribed to the newsletter, I hope to catch the shares.
