Portugal is a sun-soaked destination almost all year, which makes it the perfect place to visit outside of tourist season! From the Minho region in the north to the Algarve on the coast, Portugal is the epitome of European life. With enchanting landscapes like the Douro Valley, the vibrant streets of Lisbon and the hidden coves along the Algarve, you'll be hard pressed to find such a charming lifestyle anywhere else. Fresh seafood, delectable wine, and al fresco dining are high on the agenda here... so go with an appetite!
