Before describing the trip, I will start by describing myself first: I'm Sónia. I am a Portuguese that was born in France - but I don't speak French :) Lived in Portugal almost all of my life and a couple of years in Iceland. I love to travel and get to know different cultures with locals. It was when I was abroad and while traveling alone that I discovered the love that I have for my beautiful country. The food, the culture, the heritage, the nature, EVERYTHING. And I wanted to show it all to my friends. And now I decided to show it to others.

Details about the Accommodation We will stay in a shared house/apartment and shared bedrooms depending on the number of TripMates. Shared rooms will be with a person of the same gender. And at the family guest house you'll have private rooms. Each individual will have a bed, towels, and all the necessities needed. Private rooms in Lisboa can also be arranged with a different price. If you're interested, send me a message 📬 so we can have a quick chat and discuss this in more detail!!

Lisbon

Day 1-2

I will pick you up at the airport and I will welcome you to the accommodation in Lisboa. During the first day we will take it easy, You can walk around the capital city, I will show you the surroundings and everything you need to know. During this day you can rest and prepare for the second day.

Óbidos

Day 2-3

On our way to Natural Park we will spend the day around Baleal, Peniche and Óbidos. This is a beach area with a lot of surf school. A nice place to spend the day. Then we will go to our acomodation at the Natural Park, that is 1h30 far from where we are by car.

Serras de Aire e Candeeiros Natural Park

Day 3-4

We will go on what I call usually call The Golden Circle. Is a round tour by car with a few stopovers: Visiting a cave, viewpoints. Depends on the group. We can meet local artisans or go on a trail. You can make a small walk. Or if you want a bigger one. (It can differ within the group). Or if you want we can only go to a site in Natural Parque with stone art. It was where an street art festival took place. Where street art meets rural areas. It's nice ;)

Nazaré

Day 4-5

Have you ever heard about the giant waves of Nazaré. Yes, it's not so far away from here but there is a season to see them. Anyways, We can go to the shore and enjoy the weather on this pituresque fisherman village.

Batalha

Day 5-6

Visiting Batalha and Alcobaça Monasteries, included in the UNESCO list of World Heritage. Batalha and Alcobaça are small little towns but is definitely a must-do to visit the monasteries. Is also nice if we can see the market.

Lisbon

Day 6-7

Since this is the last day and some of you might be travelling back home, today can also be used to be in Lisboa. Staying overnight in Lisboa and exploring the city while waiting for the flight is what I am planning for you. Lisboa is a beautiful and bright city full of good sites to see and viewpoints to enjoy a glass of wine or a local beer. Then you will be ready to go to your next destination.
