Connecting Lisbon to Douro Valley - Day Tour

So, you need to go from Lisboa to the Douro Valley We can make it easy and comfortably; it is a four/five hours trip in a speedway until the northern countryside of Portugal. Or. . . we can select some places along the way, to visit, have lunch, see a monastery, have a drink with a view or just to stretch the legs. We will pass by/close to some of the most important cities of Portugal: Santarém, Óbidos, Tomar, Alcobaça Fátima, Aveiro, Coimbra. Probably, these places don't mean that much to you but, each of them have something special that we can see, enjoy, taste, or just admire. Architecture, sports, history, food, monuments, music, wine, stories, viewpoints, literature, ocean, people, past, present, future. Although it is a small country, the Portuguese history and culture are very different from North to South. During this day trip, I will do my best to give you a big picture of my country, my people, our history, present and future and, very important, I will drive you safely until your hotel at Porto.
