Aveiro - Option 1 from 5 (Choose a maximum of 3) is a charming coastal city, known for its colorful moliceiro boats, picturesque canals, and Art Nouveau architecture. Often called the "Venice of Portugal," it offers a unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. Visitors can take a moliceiro boat tour along the canals, stroll through the historic center, and admire the beautifully tiled train station. The city is also famous for its ovos moles, a traditional egg-based sweet. Nearby, the Costa Nova Beach stands out with its striped fishermen’s houses, offering a perfect spot for a scenic walk or a relaxing afternoon by the sea. With its mix of history, waterways, and coastal charm, Aveiro is a must-visit destination in Portugal.
Coimbra - Option 2 from 5 (Choose a maximum of 3) is one of Portugal’s most historic cities, known for its prestigious university, medieval streets, and rich cultural heritage. Once the country’s capital, it remains a center of learning and tradition. The University of Coimbra, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is home to the Joanina Library, one of the world’s most stunning baroque libraries. Visitors can also explore the Royal Palace, the Chapel of São Miguel, and the iconic Capelos Room. Beyond the university, Coimbra offers landmarks like the Sé Velha (Old Cathedral), the Monastery of Santa Clara-a-Velha, and the picturesque Pedro e Inês Footbridge over the Mondego River. With its academic atmosphere, historic charm, and vibrant student life, Coimbra is a must-visit destination in Portugal.
Fatima -Option 3 from 5 (Choose a maximum of 3) one of the world’s most significant Catholic pilgrimage destinations, renowned for the Marian apparitions of 1917, when three shepherd children reported visions of the Virgin Mary. Today, it draws millions of pilgrims and visitors in search of faith, reflection, and a deeper connection to history. At the heart of the town lies the Sanctuary of Fátima, home to the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary, the Chapel of the Apparitions, and the strikingly modern Basilica of the Holy Trinity. Many pilgrims take part in the Candlelight Procession, a moving display of devotion and unity. Beyond its spiritual significance, Fátima offers a peaceful setting, rich cultural heritage, and proximity to natural landmarks—making it a profound and memorable stop for both religious and secular travelers exploring Portugal.
Nazare - Option 4 from 5 (Choose a maximum of 3) is a picturesque fishing town known for its golden beaches, dramatic cliffs, and record-breaking waves. Once a traditional seaside village, it has become a world-famous surfing destination, attracting athletes who ride some of the biggest waves on the planet at Praia do Norte. The Sítio viewpoint, perched atop a 318-meter cliff, offers breathtaking views of the Atlantic and the charming lower town. Visitors can explore the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Nazaré, a revered pilgrimage site. The local fish-drying tradition, still practiced on the beach, reflects the town’s deep maritime heritage. With its mix of stunning scenery, rich traditions, and vibrant surf culture, Nazaré is a must-visit for both history lovers and adventure seekers exploring Portugal’s coastline.
Obidos - Option 5 from 5 (Choose a maximum of 3) Portugal’s most charming and well-preserved medieval towns, enclosed by ancient castle walls that offer stunning views of the countryside.
