About This Program

A 10-day luxury journey through Portugal's most enchanting regions — from Lisbon's sun-drenched hills and historic Alfama district to Porto's colorful Ribeira waterfront and the Douro Valley's terraced vineyards, with world-class gastronomy, port wine tastings, and palace hotels throughout.

This extraordinary Portuguese odyssey reveals a country of remarkable contrasts and timeless elegance. Begin in Lisbon, where four nights allow you to explore the labyrinthine Alfama district by vintage tram, marvel at the Manueline splendor of Belem Tower and Jeronimos Monastery, and discover the fairy-tale palaces of Sintra and the sun-kissed beaches of Cascais. Travel north through the medieval walled town of Obidos and the canal-laced city of Aveiro to Porto, where two nights immerse you in the city's baroque churches, iconic Dom Luis I Bridge, and legendary port wine cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia. Continue into the UNESCO-listed Douro Valley for three nights of pure indulgence at Six Senses — private boat cruises past terraced vineyards, tastings at centuries-old quintas, and spa treatments overlooking the river. Throughout, Michelin-starred dining from Belcanto in Lisbon to The Yeatman Restaurant in Porto elevates every meal into a celebration of Portuguese gastronomy.
