Not all flights operate daily, and may not run for the entire season.

If you've experienced this holiday first hand, why not write a review?
We are keen for as many customers as possible to review their holiday. To make it easier to do so, we include a specific review section on our post-holiday questionnaire, and this is what we publish here, unedited. Read our full review policy >
Never been to Portugal before and this was an excellent way to experience a variety of places.
Did feel that travelling every other day rushed things a bit although trains definitely better than driving and parking, it would have been better to stay a little longer in some and relax, which of course we know can be a pre-arranged option when booking.
However, as this was a taster trip it gave us insight for future visits.
Tourism has swamped some of the cities and Sintra was gridlocked at certain times of day. Better to plan some site visits early morning or from 1500 onwards to avoid the crowds.
The Douro valley was a delight and luckily the weather was great while we were in the north.
It was a good holiday. Rather more urban than we would normally choose. Everywhere very crowded.
We were very happy with this holiday. The choice of locations and hotels was excellent. If we were to do it again, we would give ourselves extra time in Porto, Coimbra and Lisbon as we loved all of these cities and felt we had only scratched the surface of them. We were lucky to experience the Quinta de la Rosa at harvest time and to see people treading grapes. In Porto we would recommend lunch at the Mercado Municipal across the river in the little open square opposite the cable car station. The middle of the market is filled with tables and chairs. You go and buy whatever food and drink you fancy from the different stalls all around the market and take your tray to wherever you can find a space at a table. There was a vibrant atmosphere and locals as well as tourists were enjoying what the market had to offer, especially on the Sunday when we visited.

Great trip. Very happy that we spent an extra day in Lisbon and in Sintra. All the walks were good, with the exception of the walk up to the chapel above the convent.
A good walk, pretty undemanding. The Cities were rather crowded with tourists and we were told it was high season. Queues at major sights were very long, meaning a wait of over two hours to gain entry. In most cases we gave them a miss. Maybe we did not go at the best time.
INNTRAVEL NOTE: These customers combined our Valley of Gold walking holiday with the Cities, Palaces & Wine journey by rail. September is a popular month in the cities.
We thoroughly enjoyed and would recommend this holiday. Travelling by rail is an easy and relaxing way to see many of the various aspects of Portugal's culture, history and scenery in a relatively short time with ample opportunity to sample its excellent food and wines along the way.
An amazing holiday organised by Inn Travel. The documentation was thorough and nothing was left out. All the accommodation places were of a high standard and centrally located which was of important to us as we relied on public transport. The background/ history provided was greatly appreciated and helped put everything in perspective.
Our highlight was Porto, loved the atmosphere and upgraded ourselves to a waterfront room so we could absorb everything going on.
I wish we had more time to spend in Lisbon (was our choice not Inn Travel), we loved absorbing the atmosphere of the castle and surrounds.
We really enjoyed this holiday - the experience of using Portuguese railways and exploring the various locations. We did drink too much Port, and are slowly recovering.
The walk from Sintra up to the Moorish Castle and the descent from the Pena Palace to Sintra were both delightful, especially through the gardens of the Villa Sassetti. Another example of Inntravel coming up trumps. Our experience at the Pena Palace was an exceedingly long queue for entry to the palace, which we avoided by walking up to the cafeteria and gaining access to the terraces and chapel with fabulous views but foregoing seeing the inside of the palace.
The vineyard stay was excellent in every respect with wonderful food and a very interesting insight into wine and port making. We loved the modern studio apartment in Coimbra despite there being nowhere to put our clothes and the hotel in Lisbon had the most hospitable and helpful staff. Take ear plugs if barking dogs stop you sleeping! (Quinta de la Rosa)
It would be hard to choose just one or two highlights. We always enjoy your intimate, historic accommodations and your carefully selected tour recommendations. My best memory will be the sense of exhilaration over each day's adventure, day after day, for the month that we travelled through your packages.
INNTRAVEL NOTE: these customers enjoyed a multi holiday itinerary to include our Cities, Palaces & Wine Self-Guided Journey by Rail, a stay in an Andalucian Cottage on our Authentic Southern Spain holiday, our Landscapes of Western Madeira Discovery Walking Holiday, with city add-ons in Madrid and Lisbon.
