Overview

Portugal offers so much more than what typical travel guides suggest. Skip the mass tourism and join us as we explore Mafra and Ericeira.

Start your day with a hotel pickup and head to the village of Mafra, where you'll find the UNESCO-listed Mafra Convent. This impressive site features Baroque and Neoclassical architecture, including the Basilica, dormitories, a hospital, and a renowned library that houses 36,000 books.

Next, we'll visit the unique José Franco Museum, which is a living replica of a traditional Portuguese village, showcasing rural life from the mid-20th century.

Then, we’ll continue to Ericeira, recognized as Europe’s first World Surfing Reserve, famous for its charming blue and white streets. You'll have free time for lunch or a leisurely stroll by the seaside.

To conclude the day, we'll visit a family-run winery. You'll tour the cellars, learn about the wine production process, and enjoy exceptional wines paired with local bread and olives.
