Pousadas of Portugal
These hotels are the choice for the Local Culture and Art&Wine tours as they are inherently integrated into the respective tour themes.

The Pousadas de Portugal are members of the Historic Hotels of Europe organisation.






Heritage Hotels
Ours are hotels with character, situated in old houses and small historic buildings in the historic centre of Lisbon. With their intimate, welcoming environment, redolent of Portuguese tradition and culture, these are special places to stay that constitute an integral part of our carefully crafted programme for your visit.

Heritage Hotels are member of Historic Hotels of Europe organisation.


Pestana Palace
Our hotel in Lisbon displays all the glamour of a 19th century palace and its gardens have been awarded National Monument status. The Pestana Palace is a member of the Leading Hotels of the World organisation.
In 2007, the hotel was nominated by Expedia.com as one of the 100 best Hotels in the World and also emerged as winner in the Best Luxury Hotel category in the Travellers Choice Awards in 2006.




Pestana Porto
In Oporto, we opted for the special charm of the Pestana Porto with its fine carved stone architecture coupled with a particularly favourable location. Located in Praça da Ribeira, in the very historical centre of the city and, perched up on a medieval wall, there are magnificent views out over the splendour of the river Douro.




Lágrimas & Emotions
The charming Quinta das Lágrimas with its medieval and romantic gardens, unique in Portugal, provides the ideal hotel setting for the Historic Gardens tour. This 18th century palace is a member of Relais & Chateaux.
This group runs several unique restaurants each with its own differentiated ambience and selected for inclusion on some of our tours.
