TRIP TO PORTUGAL

Porto

"A number of people asked us - Why Portugal? and we said Why not?… it’s a beautiful country, great people, excellent food and the wine…oh the wine is just great! We loved Porto and it was a great thing that the airline planned a strike for the first few days. The changes to our itinerary were just right since we got to see a bit more of this beautiful country. Travel Tailors put together a great itinerary for us and went out of their way to make sure our vacation was perfect. They stayed in contact even when we were in Portugal, from meeting us at the airport and sending us off. Our vacation was effortless and we thank Paula and Travel Tailors for this!!!"

TRIP TO PORTUGAL

Sintra

"Dear Paula,

Thank you for making our travel arrangements during our trip to Lisbon. We had a wonderful time. Each activity was well chosen to give us a great perspective of Lisbon and Portugese culture. Having Nuno as our tour guide added a great deal to our understanding of the culture and history and to getting an overview of the city. He was engaging and knowlegable and his tours were well planned. In hindsight, we would have wanted to spend time in the gardens of Sintra, but we didn't verbalize this to him. We think this would be a good addition. He was great! The Fado and dinner was a highlight of the trip. The food was authentic and very good. A perfect way to spend a beautiful evening in Lisbon. The sunset cruise was a nice way to see the city from another perspective and the excellent weather made the evening special. The Hotel Bario Alto was great- a little pricey, but we loved the location and the staff was excellent. Our plans to visit Portugal started with a switch of out time share into Madera and we added the stay in Lisbon to the itinerary. We had been to Portugal 30 years ago but never to Lisbon and we promised ourselves that we would return.  We hope to return to Portugal in the not too distant future. We want to explore Porto and the north next time.

Again, thanks for making the arrangements."

Testimonial: Journey to Portugal and Paris

«All the trip planning was excellent, which made it pleasant. It was all very well prepared and divided, which made us enjoy traveling from city to city. The New Year's Eve that we spent at the Hard Rock Café was excellent. The participation of the guides was essential, with special mention to Carlos, who accompanied us in Oporto, by his historical knowledge and professionalism. Since we travelled as a family and all together, we didn't have any problem entering or exiting Europe. The required documentation was only the passports and the interview was quick and calm. The journey exceeded our expectations and we just have to thank you for your commitment and participation in all the planning and all the details.»

Testimonial: Journey to Alentejo

«The rooms where we stayed were very pleasant. The food at the hotel restaurant is excellent. The walk through Alqueva was memorable; the cooking workshop was really fun and educational for the ones that participated in it; although the birdwatching activity was interesting and informative, we believe there is room for improvements. In general, the hotel has a huge potential and the staff is extremely attentive and nice. The documentation provided was on time and adequate.»

Testimonial: Cruise in Douro river

«The cruise was very good, good food, good landscapes. We ended up changing our Sunday lunch plans and went up to Gaia, visited the Sandeman Port Wine Cellar (I recommend), and had lunch at a restaurant by the river (A Transmontana, I think). Very Good! I thank you for your help. We got an excellent impression of you. You are now our reference at home for future trips.»
