This private tour takes us north along the amazing landscapes of the west coast of Portugal until we arrive at Óbidos. Walking tour with your guide and free time in the village.  Free Cherry Liqueur tasting. "Off the beaten path": we will stop at the odd rock formations at Cabo Carvoeiro, Peniche. Another unique place is the village of Baleal, a peninsula that stretches into the Atlantic. We will stop there for you to explore the place. A fusion of land and ocean. Nature in pure state. Mafra National Palace is one of the largest buildings in Europe. Visit to the church. The words "massive," "monumental," "gigantic," "colossal," and "vast" fail to describe the scale of Mafra's Baroque royal palace. Short lunch break for you to taste  the old traditional convent sweets.

Inclusions: Official Driver/guide and visits to the monuments, Toll fees, Vehicle with air conditioning and free wi-fi on board., Hotel/port pick-up and drop-off, 1 bottle of water per person, refreshing wipes and pocket tissues, 1 Cherry Liqueur per person, Offer of a COVID-19 kit (masks and disinfection gel).

Exclusions: Entrance-fees to monuments, Food and drinks, unless specified

While the title seems to say it all, to put it into context, we have been traveling for 30 years and always arrange for our own guides even if we are on a cruise. Not only did Paulo have a tremendous depth of knowledge about both the past and present of Portugal, he had the ability to tell the story in a concise and relevant manner that was engrossing. There were a number times during our day with Paulo when we would say to ourselves, "This is the best guide that we have ever had"! And indeed he was.

The waters of the west coast are shelter and also the place of passage of different animals, such as sharks, turtles, seabirds, and mainly cetaceans (dolphins), with the “Bottlenose Dolphin” (Tursiops Truncatus) being the most sighted species. The latter dazzles any observer when he reaches an astonishing 4 meters in length and 45 years old and for some years now have been a regular presence in our waters. During this cruise you will have the opportunity to meet these fun and friendly animals, as well as marvel at the caves and rock formations that make the southern coast of Portugal one of the most beautiful in the world. Note: This activity lasts 2 hours departing from Peniche Port with a minimum of 8 people and a maximum of 14. The boat may reach 30 miles per hour.

Inclusions: Life Jackets

We decided to do something traditional for Portugal which was a fishing trip. Fernando and Rita met us in the port and from the first second they were so friendly and welcoming. We caught a lot of fish which were delicious on the barbecue after. On top of this they took us to see dolphins which was something we never forget - such a cool experience! We would recommend everyone to do this tour :)
