Explore Portugal from North to South in Comfort

At Europe Private Tours, we offer fully private tours of Portugal, led by your own professional driver-guide and tailored to your interests. You travel privately in a luxurious Mercedes vehicle, with a personalized itinerary designed around what matters most to you.

Portugal has many famous locations and attractions, but also plenty of hidden gems. Visitors arrive for the famous highlights like Porto’s riverside streets, the terraced vineyards of the Douro Valley, Lisbon’s historic neighborhoods, and the golden cliffs of the Algarve. But there’s so much more to Portugal, such as medieval towns, Roman ruins, mountain landscapes, and vineyard valleys, to name a few.

Explore our itineraries below to find the route that suits you best, or let us create something entirely bespoke.

10 Day Private Tour of Portugal

The 10-day private tour expands the route to include more of Portugal’s regional character. In addition to Porto and Lisbon, you’ll travel through the Douro Valley, northern historic towns, Atlantic coastal villages, and the countryside surrounding the capital. With extra time built in, you can experience more of the Algarve coast, visit wine regions beyond the Douro, and explore places like Mafra, Fátima, Setúbal, and the Arrábida Natural Park without feeling rushed. This tour is ideal for travelers who want to see Portugal’s major landmarks while also having space to explore smaller towns, regional food traditions, and lesser-known landscapes.

14 Day Private Tour of Portugal

Our 14-day private tour of Portugal is designed for travellers who want to see the country in full, travelling from Porto through the Douro Valley, down into the Algarve, across the Alentejo, and finishing in Lisbon and Sintra. Over two weeks, you experience Portugal as a connected whole. The vineyards of the north give way to dramatic southern coastlines. Rural Algarve villages contrast with the open landscapes of Évora and Monsaraz, before the energy of Lisbon and the cooler, wooded hills of Sintra. With two weeks, the journey flows naturally from north to south, with time to experience each region properly rather than rushing between stops.

Popular Destinations in Portugal Our Guests Love

Arco da Rua Augusta and Praça do Comércio at sunset in Lisbon Portugal with tourists exploring the historic city square

Lisbon

Portugal’s capital is built across a series of hills, with views opening out over the river at almost every turn. Historic trams move through narrow streets, while neighborhoods like Alfama keep a more traditional feel. Landmarks, viewpoints, and everyday city life all sit close together, making it an easy place to explore at a relaxed pace.

Porto

Set along the Douro River, Porto is known for its riverside setting and historic center. Colorful buildings line the waterfront, while narrow streets lead up through the old town. It’s also the home of port wine, with cellars just across the river offering tastings and a look into the region’s wine heritage.

Algarve

Along Portugal’s southern coast, the Algarve is known for its cliffs, beaches, and coastal towns. Dramatic rock formations meet the Atlantic, with quieter stretches alongside livelier seaside spots. It’s a region that works just as well for relaxing as it does for exploring.

Colorful Pena Palace in Sintra, Portugal at sunset with tourists exploring the historic castle and scenic mountain views

Sintra

Just outside Lisbon, Sintra feels completely different from the capital. Set among forested hills, it’s known for its palaces, gardens, and winding roads. Brightly coloured buildings and historic estates are scattered across the landscape, giving the area a unique and slightly surreal feel.

Douro Valley

Following the river inland, the Douro Valley is one of Portugal’s most scenic regions. Vineyards stretch across the hillsides, with small towns and quiet roads running alongside the river. It’s a slower-paced area, focused on wine, views, and the landscape itself.
