Start the fun early!

If you have a little extra time, why not join some of your fellow travellers in Lisbon three nights before the larger tour begins. We'll do a food tour the first day, and take private transport out of the city for a tour of stunning Sintra the next. Then we'll travel together (via 1st class train and/or private transport) to join the rest of the group in the Duoro Valley.
