Our Wine & Walking tour was superb on many levels; scenery, wine, food and companionship. Notwithstanding, the apex of our endeavor was the non pareil service provided by our guide, Carla Costa. She personifies service, kindness, local knowledge and critical attention to details. She is truly a provider of service above and beyond.

michael Madden Portugal: Walking & Wine – Premium Adventure
Hannah Chismar Portugal: Walking & Wine – Premium AdventureI couldn’t believe it when I stumbled on this tour. Walking and wine! Two things I love and a journey through the countryside. For months, I anticipated the trip and planned. A friend decided to join me. And what a trip it was! Wonderful in every way. Our tour leader Carla and her husband Fernando were the perfect hosts. Because they grew up & live in the region, I felt like we were getting a hyper local, personal experience. We were able to see their home through their eyes, as Carla told stories of history, culture, recipes, current community challenges. Every day was a different landscape -all beautiful- and the food & wine was fantastic. I don’t want to give away the little surprises that were along the way, but I can promise enjoyment of them. Most days, we had a walk in the morning (a few steep hills, but mostly flat, minimum 5 miles) followed by a lovely lunch, and then we had free time in the afternoon. I really liked that we only had 3 hotels for the week. I could settle in, and the views from the rooms were something else! Weather was hot in September. I highly recommend this tour if you want to really get to know the friendly, welcoming country of Portugal and make new friends along the way!
Stephanie Heal Portugal: Walking & Wine – Premium AdventureWe had a fantastic tour with Luis and Teresa! They were both very attentive and had a wealth of knowledge about the places we visited. The walking was varied and the views were spectacular. Although the weather was not always the best, Luis and Teresa adapted the itinerary to ensure we could still have all the experiences promised. Would highly recommend.

What makes a trip Premium?
On our Premium Adventures, we’ve hand-picked extra special and unique places to stay that are just as incredible, as the adventure itself. With us, you can sleep in a cave hotel overlooking Cappadocia’s fairy chimneys in Turkey, stargaze from a Bedouin camp deep in the Wadi Rum in Jordan or enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep cruising on the glittering waters of Halong Bay in Vietnam.
Are Premium Adventures guided?
Yes. We’ll name your leader, so you know you’ll be traveling with an expert. They’ll uncover your destination’s best-kept secrets, delicious regional cuisine, and local legends.
