We had a fabulous time on this excursion! These buildings are so rich with history. The guides speak several languages and are very welcoming. Our spot along the coast was Caba da Roca (western most point of Portugal)and it was breathtaking. It was quite windy but beautiful. Cute little café and gift shop there as well.

Merci à vous pour ces merveilleux paysages que vous nous avez fait découvrir, et de votre grande connaissance du patrimoine historique... Sans vous, nous serions passés à côté de ces coins du Portugal qui nous étaient méconnus... Encore merci
