Description
Long Description:
1) Meeting with your guide
Your guide will meet you at your accommodation, to start your private experience (All inclusive) to the capitals of the Alto-Minho region: Barcelos, Ponte de Lima and Viana do Castelo.
2) Discover the historical centre of Barcelos and learn local traditions
We will visit the city of Barcelos, land of traditions and beautiful landscapes and also the Portuguese Ex-libris: The rooster.
We will discover the vast existing heritage, from the Romanesque to the Neoclassical, visible in monuments such as its Medieval Bridge, the Mother Church, the Paço dos Condes de Bragança, the Church of Senhor da Cruz, the Fountain of Campo da Feira, among many others.
This experience includes:
- Guided tour of the Historical Centre of Barcelos
3) Explore the medieval centre of Ponte de Lima a try the local "Vinho Verde"
We will then discover the oldest town in Portugal, (royal charter of 1125), in a true journey through time.
We will walk through the typical alleys, the traditional shops, the medieval bridge and the panorama of the Lima river, so beautiful and mystical that it instigated the legend of the "Rio Lethes" in the Roman soldiers who passed through here, more than 2000 years ago. Here, it will be the perfect place to have an authentic experience and try the local Vinho Verde Wine and a snack to go along with it, in a local tavern/café.
This experience includes:
- Guided visit of the Historical Centre of Ponte de Lima
4) Taste a 3-course lunch in Alto-Minho's famous cuisine
"The cuisine is seasoned with culture and flavored with wisdom" - Chef Di Manno
After so much discovery, it's time for a gastronomic experience, to which the richness of the cuisine of the Alto Minho region invites us, at a table where the flavors and scents are deliciously full of authenticity and tradition.
5) Visit the Sanctuary of Santa Luzia and its famous panoramic viewpoint
It's now time to visit one of the pearls of Alto-Minho region: the Sanctuary of Santa Luzia.
Built in the beginning of the 20th century, on top of Santa Luzia hill, this Sanctuary is based on a romanesque-byzantine basilica, whose imposing rose windows are the largest in the Iberian Peninsula and the second largest in Europe. There, we will contemplate what was considered by National Geographic Magazine as the 3rd most beautiful panorama in the world.
6) Stroll through the historical centre of Viana do Castelo, the capital of Alto-Minho
This is the scenario we saw from the top of the Santa Luzia viewpoint - the Historical Centre of this city, whose privileged location relating to land routes ("Caminhos de Santiago"), river and sea routes, made the walled-fortress construction crucial, in the 14th century.
It is impossible not to give in to the charms of the alleys of the Historical Centre, one of the most beautiful and well preserved in the country, either due to the beautiful armored façades or the precious tile panels, constituting an authentic compendium of the history and tradition of Portugal. Right in main square, we will visit the National Costumes Museum, which gathers a collection of historical clothing and costume accessories from the 18th century to the present.
This experience includes:
- Guided visit of the Historical Centre of Viana do Castelo
7) Relax with a Chill & Wine moment in a unique setting
To crown a day full of experiences and discovery, enjoy this moment of free time with your family and friends, to enjoy a refreshing harmonized cocktail, surrounded by the landscapes of the Atlantic coast of Alto-Minho.
It is time to return, relaxed, to your accommodation. While doing so, you'll be able to recall the day's memories, photos and videos of the memorable moments spent in our company and share them with your group of friends and family.
Thank you for your preference.
We hope to see you soon!

Description
Long Description:
1) Meeting with your guide
Your guide will meet you at your accommodation, to start your private experience (All inclusive) to the capitals of the Alto-Minho region: Barcelos, Ponte de Lima and Viana do Castelo.
2) Discover the historical centre of Barcelos and learn local traditions
We will visit the city of Barcelos, land of traditions and beautiful landscapes and also the Portuguese Ex-libris: The black rooster.
We will discover the vast existing heritage, from the Romanesque to the Neoclassical, visible in monuments such as its Medieval Bridge, the Mother Church, the Paço dos Condes de Bragança, the Church of Senhor da Cruz, the Fountain of Campo da Feira, among many others.
This experience includes:
- Guided tour of the Historical Centre of Barcelos
3) Explore the medieval centre of Ponte de Lima a try the local "Vinho Verde"
We will then discover the oldest town in Portugal, (royal charter of 1125), in a true journey through time.
We will walk through the typical alleys, the traditional shops, the medieval bridge and the panorama of the Lima river, so beautiful and mystical that it instigated the legend of the "Rio Lethes" in the Roman soldiers who passed through here, more than 2000 years ago. Here, it will be the perfect place to have an authentic experience and try the local Vinho Verde Wine and a snack to go along with it, in a local tavern/café.
This experience includes:
- Guided visit of the Historical Centre of Ponte de Lima
4) Taste a 3-course lunch in Alto-Minho's famous cuisine
"The cuisine is seasoned with culture and flavored with wisdom" - Chef Di Manno
After so much discovery, it's time for a gastronomic experience, to which the richness of the cuisine of the Alto Minho region invites us, at a table where the flavors and scents are deliciously full of authenticity and tradition.
5) Visit the Sanctuary of Santa Luzia and its famous panoramic viewpoint
It's now time to visit one of the pearls of Alto-Minho region: the Sanctuary of Santa Luzia.
Built in the beginning of the 20th century, on top of Santa Luzia hill, this Sanctuary is based on a romanesque-byzantine basilica, whose imposing rose windows are the largest in the Iberian Peninsula and the second largest in Europe. There, we will contemplate what was considered by National Geographic Magazine as the 3rd most beautiful panorama in the world.
6) Stroll through the historical centre of Viana do Castelo, the capital of Alto-Minho
This is the scenario we saw from the top of the Santa Luzia viewpoint - the Historical Centre of this city, whose privileged location relating to land routes ("Caminhos de Santiago"), river and sea routes, made the walled-fortress construction crucial, in the 14th century.
It is impossible not to give in to the charms of the alleys of the Historical Centre, one of the most beautiful and well preserved in the country, either due to the beautiful armored façades or the precious tile panels, constituting an authentic compendium of the history and tradition of Portugal. Right in main square, we will visit the National Costumes Museum, which gathers a collection of historical clothing and costume accessories from the 18th century to the present,
This experience includes:
- Guided visit of the Historical Centre of Viana do Castelo
7) Relax with a Chill & Wine moment in a unique setting
To crown a day full of experiences and discovery, enjoy this moment of free time with your family and friends, to enjoy a refreshing harmonized cocktail, surrounded by the landscapes of the Atlantic coast of Alto-Minho.
