Inquire NowPicture 10 days of big waves, adrenaline-fuelled adventures, jaw-dropping landscapes, unmissable art and food you'll never forget. Your story starts in Porto, where you'll capture the city's creative and cosmopolitan spirit on a guided photography tour. Then we take things up a level, climbing the iconic Arrábida Bridge for 65m-high thrills and panoramic views. E-bike through historic streets exploring diverse architecture, buzzing live music, art and a curious obsession with sandwiches, then head to the vine-striped Douro Valley for a private vineyard picnic and wine tasting. Teens can turn up the excitement with an off-road e-bike tour while you take a private boat ride through staggering views.
Hit the coast in Nazaré, home of some of the world's biggest waves, for surf lessons at this iconic spot. In Lisbon, explore the coolest neighborhoods in a vintage sidecar while teens spend an Independent Day at LxFactory designing their own street art. Take on coasteering along the coastline—climbing, swimming, rappelling and cliff jumping—then slow the pace painting traditional azulejo tiles and making pastéis de nata from scratch.
As your adventure closes, one last thrill awaits: exploring Sintra Forest and Cascais by e-bike, taking in peaks, forests, beaches and ocean breezes. Saving some of Portugal's best for last.
