Things to do in Portugal
Begin in Porto, with a day trip to the Douro Valley for a River Cruise. Move on to Lisbon and don’t forget to include a day trip to Sintra! Finally, make your way South to Algarve, where nature abounds.
Porto and Lisbon are both doable without a car, but would suggest renting a vehicle for the Algarve portion of your trip.
