Practical information about Portugal |
Portugal is sea and sun, mountains and vineyards, wheatfields and cork oak, white-washed villages with craftsmen, sophisticated modern cities. Golf, beaches, great architecture await.
Portugal is a study in contrasts. It was the poorest
country in western Europe until the "flower
revolution" that overthrew decades of stifling
dictatorship some 30 years ago. Now a full member of the
European Union, Portugal mixes the modern and the
ancient in sometimes amazing ways. A 600 year old
fortress monastery is turned into a luxury hotel by the
addition of an ultramodern wing, but somehow there is no
clash. A sheperdess talks on a cell phone while watching
her small flock. 
New terrasses are being shaped on vertiginous hillsides
on which the same famous Douro grapes have been grown
for centuries. Whether you like history, culture, wine,
spectacular landscapes, good food or just plain
relaxation in nice settings, there is much to see and to
love about Portugal.
Whether it is for a custom private tour, or for independent travel arrangements, we constantly seek out the most distinctive hotels, guides and services for discriminating travelers. Contact us for a quote.
