Itinerary
3 Nights – Porto
4 Nights – Lisbon
7 Nights – Algarve
✈ UK – Porto: After a short flight from the UK, you’ll arrive in the charming city of Porto. Once here, the itinerary is completely up to you, but a good place to start is to take a stroll around the historic centre of Porto, a UNESCO World Heritage Site full of architectural gems. Food and drink will be an important part of your stay, so make sure you take a tour of one of the city’s many cellars which is a great way to learn more about this famous tipple plus indulge in one of the delicious local dishes such as bacalao (salt-cod).
🚆Porto – Lisbon: Embark on the next stage of your unforgettable Portuguese holiday, by taking train in Porto to the vibrant capital city of Lisbon, approximately 3 hours’ south. Spend the next four nights discovering the winding cobblestone streets of the historic Alfama District, taking in the sweeping views of the city from Castelo de Sao Jorge, and enjoying the lively atmosphere, live music, and delectable food and drinks of the Baixa district. For a day trip, don’t miss the chance to soak up the sun and take a dip in the Atlantic at the breath-taking beaches of Cascais.
✈ Lisbon – Algarve: After experiencing the vibrant culture of Lisbon, it’s time to board the short flight to Faro, the gateway to the Algarve. This Mediterranean paradise offers 100 miles of pristine blue flag beaches, world-renowned golf courses, and stunning cliffs with crystal clear turquoise waters ideal for surfing, windsurfing, and other water sports. One of the most popular stretches of beach is the 6km long Praia de Falesia, located between Albufeira and Vilamoura with a large variety of top-class hotels. Alternatively, you may wish to stay in the luxurious resort of Quinta da Lago, famed for its fine dining and high-end shopping. For something a little more rugged, consider the picturesque harbour and beaches of Sagres in the southwest of the Algarve.
✈ Algarve (Faro) – UK: Board the flight home to the UK, refreshed and content after a wonderful Portuguese getaway.

As always, Chris was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He gave me good advice on my travel plans and booked the holiday on my behalf. I've used eshores a number of times, and will continue to do so.

We haven’t been on our trip yet but based purely on the experience of booking the trip we are pleased with the result. It started with a bit of a hiccup as we spoke to a member of staff who never came back to us but when we reached back out again we were placed in the hands of Andy who has helped us book a 2 week trip to India including the golden triangle and then a few days on the beach. Andy was very patient with us with our changes to our tailor made holiday, even when we asked him to explore different areas only to revert back to the original plan. He also recommended moving the holiday back one week which created a saving of over £700 which meant we could upgrade the room for our beach stay in Goa. Andy was also available on weekends if we wanted to speak and regularly picked up the phone as opposed to keeping it to purely email dialogue. Hopefully the holiday will be amazing but based on the booking experience I would recommend eShores if you’re looking to book a tailor made holiday

We have booked two big holidays this year for a group of 8 and a group of 10, Rachel has coordinated our holidays with the utmost excellence, during the consultation we changed countires hotels and even flights but it did not phase Rachel one bit. Exceeds customer expectations by helping advising and supporting throughout the holiday. We are off to Thailand and Dubai in August and then followed by India and Thailand in November, I have rang emailed Rachel many times during the booking and I got very prompt responses even on her days off. Rachel is a credit to EShores and EShores is setting standards regarding customer focus.

I can’t praise Lynette at EShores enough. She has organised my trips perfectly to the point that I wouldn’t use anyone else. She listens to what I want or to the problem I have and comes up with a solution. Nothing is too much trouble. Try them out yourselves and I bet you become a repeater too!
