Portugal was the best surprise of our travels! The Algarve sea cave boat tour was mind-blowing. Porto’s Livraria Lello bookshop made me cry — I’ve never seen anywhere so beautiful. Portugal is now our favourite country in Europe!

Our honeymoon in Portugal was absolutely perfect. Sintra’s Pena Palace looked like a fairytale. The Port wine tasting in Gaia was the best experience. Cabo da Roca at sunset was profoundly moving. Portugal is cheaper than France and infinitely more magical!

We went with low expectations and came back completely converted. Lisbon’s trams, the freshest seafood in Porto, and the Algarve cliffs that looked like a painting. Portuguese people are incredibly warm. Holiday Vibez included Livraria Lello which turned out to be one of the best experiences!
