You’ll have free time to enjoy lunch (with restaurant recommendations from your guide) and explore at your own pace.
Next, wind your way toward the wild Atlantic coast. Pause at Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Europe. Towering cliffs and panoramic ocean views make this a truly dramatic and unforgettable stop.
From there, inland to the historic Colares wine region and visit a family-owned wineryfor a guided tour and tasting. Learn about winemaking traditions shaped by coastal soils and Atlantic breezes and sample regional varieties in an intimate setting.
End the day with a visit to Cascais, a charming seaside town once favored by Portuguese nobility. Stroll along the elegant marina, explore quaint streets, or simply relax by the coast during your free time before returning to Lisbon.
Throughout the journey, transportation is part of the curated experience. Your guide offers historical context, storytelling, and local insight at every stage of the adventure.
