Head back to Lisbon to visit the 16th-century Jeronimos Monastery, the Discoveries Monument along the banks of the Tagus River, and the impressive Belem Tower. Make a visit to Pastéis de Belem, world-famous purveyors of pasteis de nata, who have managed to hold on to their secret recipe for nearly 200 years.

DAY 3
Lisbon – Nazare – Fatima – Braga
09h00 am: Meet in the lobby.

Your day on Portugal’s “Silver Coast” begins in Nazare. This picturesque village got its name from a statue of the Virgin Mary brought to town from Nazareth by a monk in the 4th century.
High above the town is Sitio, reached by a funicular that climbs 110m (360ft), we will visit the 17th century Nossa Senhora da Nazare Church with splendid 18th-century tiles depicting Biblical scenes. It also contains a revered image of Our Lady of Nazareth taken down to the sea in a traditional procession every September.

However, Nazare might be best known for its waves. In 2011, surfer Garret McNamara changed the history of Nazare when he was towed into a 78-foot monster swell. At the time, it was the largest wave ever surfed. Every winter since, this sleepy seaside town hosts some of the best surfers in the world in hopes of catching their own monster waves.

After lunch, we will stop at the imposing Santuário de Fátima, a destination for Catholic pilgrims from across the world. On May 13, 1917, three children who were herding sheep observed an apparition of the Virgin Mary, as a response, the sanctuary and Chapel of the Apparition were built.

Accommodation: 4 stars hotel. Overnight in Braga.
Meals: Breakfast.

DAY 4
Porto – Full Day
09h00 am: Meet in the lobby.

We start the day with a walking tour through the historic center of Porto. Beginning with the impressive collection of over 20,000 blue tiles in São Bento Train Station. Proceeding to the 12th century Porto Cathedral, where you’ll discover the city’s unique history while taking in sweeping views of the Douro River. Next, we will venture down the alleys of the medieval district to the commercial street of “Rua das Flores,” to take in buskers and craftspeople selling their wares. We pass the astonishing City Hall and continue up to the Clérigos Tower, next to the buzzing university. Being the most lively area in town, this is where we will have lunch at a restaurant favored by locals.

In the afternoon, discover the city’s modern district, Boavista, and home of the magnificent “Casa da Música.” A stylish concert hall and beloved city landmark. Afterward, we will cross the Douro to the Vila Nova de Gaia neighborhood. Here you will be treated to a guided visit to a traditional wine cellar, or cave, to taste the rich, sophisticated, and world-renowned fortified wine – port.

With the taste of port still on your tongue, it will be time to enjoy a one-hour boat cruise along the Douro River aboard a traditional Rabelo.
