Eight days around Portugal is down to £849pp with Exoticca’s Coastal Cities & Cultural Treasures tour. The current lead price is £370 below the listed £1,219, and it includes flights, hotels and activities rather than just the flight in.
The £849 example is 28 November to 5 December from London for two adults in Charm accommodation. The same price appeared for 10 to 17 December from Dublin when checked on 14 September. It is a rare one to look at if you want Portugal beyond a single city break.
What the itinerary covers
You fly into Lisbon, then work through Sintra, Óbidos, Nazaré and Fátima before heading north via Tomar and Coimbra to Porto. There is also a stop in Aveiro before the final night back in Lisbon. That is proper ground covered for the money, especially with city tours in Lisbon and Porto, visits around Fátima and Óbidos, transfers and an English-speaking guide included.
Exoticca lists return flights from main UK and Ireland airports, seven hotel nights, seven breakfasts, air taxes and ATOL Protection in the headline package. There is a £39pp handling fee at checkout, so include that before deciding it is your final total.
How to book
- Open the Exoticca Portugal tour.
- Select your departure city and compare the live calendar.
