Tour Details
Nazaré
The tour begins in Nazaré, one of Portugal’s most iconic coastal towns. A picturesque fishing village, also known for the biggest waves in the world for surf lovers, as it was here that on 11-1-2011, North American surfer Garrett McNamara successfully faced a giant wave measuring 23 meters and 77 centimeters—the biggest wave in the world at the time.
We stop at key viewpoints overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, ideal for photos and coastal scenery. If you’re interested, your driver-guide can explain the surf phenomenon and the athletes behind Nazaré’s big-wave records.
To this day, the actual record is 28,57 meters and belongs to the German surfer Sebastian Steudtner. Every single season we have daredevils from all around the world to break the record!
Óbidos
Known for its well-preserved historic charm, Óbidos is a labyrinth of cobbled streets, whitewashed houses, and colorful bougainvillea. Explore the impressive Óbidos Castle, which offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Wander through the narrow streets, visiting quaint shops, art galleries, and cafes. Don’t miss the chance to taste the famous Ginja de Óbidos, a sweet cherry liqueur served in chocolate cups.
Sintra
As we want to present you with a real Portugal, we will go through local and non-tourist paths towards the village of Sintra, a picturesque village with beautiful cobbled streets full of shops and traditional cafés. The village itself is really worth visiting so that you can feel why Sintra has been considered a World Heritage Site by Unesco since 1995.
In the field of gastronomy, let yourself be delighted by the quality of our fresh fish or seafood, or even taste our more traditional and typical foods.
The suggestions are ours, but the decision is yours. Enjoy to the fullest, this tour made for you, and thinking of you.
