A complete journey through the heritage, culture and identity of the North. This is a private experience, with pickup and drop-off in the Lisbon area and a driver-guide accompanying you in Portuguese or English.

Optional indoor visits, wine tastings, meals and boat trips are subject to availability and are paid for separately. The ginjinha tasting listed in the itinerary is included. Please agree in advance which visits you would like to take so we can arrange the necessary tickets and reservations.

On the return journey, you may be dropped off at a different location in the Lisbon area by arrangement with the driver.
