Backstory:
Two of our favorite American luxury experiential travel customers and friends, Denise and her husband Mike, an award winning photographer did a private tour of Spain years ago with friends. Denise was so happy that she did a video about their experience during the private tour we had designed to their specs.
In 2021 they reached out about their desire to return to Iberia with another small group of friends.
In planning, we worked closely with Denise and created a few different itineraries to consider with Spain, Portugal & Spain or pure Portugal. Denise and her group of 5 finally settled on doing a private 2-week custom tour of Portugal. Here’s an outline of their tailored, private 14 day tour of Portugal with driver and top guides. They arrived to the typically amazing mid-September weather of Porto in the north of Portugal…
Imagine warming turquoise sky, beguiling bougainvilleas, savagely beautiful coasts where the passage of time has left its visible mark, fresh seafood grilled veggies, revitalizing coffees, warm smiling people in the streets, ancient patterned tiles and narrow lanes full of history, inspiring beaches…
