Holidays to Portugal
From medieval castles and flower-covered hillsides to picturesque villages scattered over meandering coastlines, enjoy the diverse surroundings Portugal holiday destinations have to offer. The breath-taking sea cliffs, wild dune-covered beaches, protected coves and long sandy coastline islands have delighted visitors and locals alike for years.
The Algarve is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Europe; stretching across the southernmost tip of mainland Portugal, the Algarve is famous for its year-round superb climate, fantastic beaches, dramatic landscape and quaint villages. A trip to Porto should be on your Portugal travel to-do list as it gives visitors an authentic Portuguese experience. All the traditions, culture of the city and the magnificent architecture remain untouched from modern influences. One of Europe’s most attractive capital cities, Lisbon, and a Madeira holiday both have unique highlights to explore and so much to offer to every over 50s solo traveller.

Plan Your Holiday To Portugal
Lisbon
The capital of Portugal is known for its white stone streets, romantic architecture and signature cable cars. On our holidays to Lisbon, we’ll explore the winding alleyways of the Baixa and Alfama Quarters and take a trip to the impressive Belem Tower and Jerónimos Monastery. As we make our way through the city, we’ll learn about the important contributions made by Portuguese explorers and how the country’s maritime trade shaped it into the Portugal we know today.
The Algarve
Boasting superb beaches and picturesque seaside villages, the Algarve is a must-see region when visiting Portugal. Located in the south west of the country, it offers modern amenities and resorts for travellers while still maintaining traditional Portuguese culture in its quaint fishing ports and whitewashed towns. On our holidays to Portugal, we’ll have the chance to visit the history steeped town of Silves and explore the markets of Faro. We’ll also take in breathtaking cliffside scenery in Lagos and visit Sagres, the southwestern most tip of Europe and where early Europeans believed the world ended.
Porto
The colourful city of Porto is known not only for its excellent port wine production, but also its wonderfully preserved medieval architecture. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the city boasts an array of galleries, museums and historical landmarks to visit. On our holidays to Porto, we’ll take guided tours to highlights like the Ribeira quarter, the Porto Cathedral, Palacio da Bolsa, Mercado do Bolhao and Clérigos Church. We’ll also have plenty of free time in the city, during which we recommend taking a relaxing boat ride along the Douro River, passing under six of Porto's magnificent bridges.
Lisbon Coast
Located just outside the Portuguese capital of Lisbon, this coastal region has a variety of experiences to offer visitors. From incredible beaches to rich history, our holidays to this area provide something for everyone. We’ll visit the Castle of Sintra, a 16th-century palace and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Nestled within the mountains, this castle has a fairytale-feel and was once home to the Portuguese Royal Family. Other notable sites in the region that we’ll visit include the picturesque town of Óbidos, the scenic fishing village of Nazaré, and Alcobaça which is home to a 12th century monastery.
