What you can expect

Embark on a journey of discovery, visiting some of the most charming and historic villages in Portugal. The Minho region marks your path; admire its picture-perfect scenery and learn the history of the towns that lie along its banks.

Leave Porto behind and head towards north. Sit back and take in the breathtaking countryside that surrounds you. Upon arrival to Braga, the oldest village in Portugal, visit the gorgeous sanctuary Bom Jesus de Braga, set at 1,312 feet (400 m) above sea level. Admire the beautiful landscape around you, the pleasant gardens and calm lakes.

Visit the Braga Cathedral and then wander around the historic town, where you can people-watch from any of the local coffee shops before continuing to Guimarães.

Upon arrival in Guimarães, admire the well-preserved medieval castle and explore the UNESCO World Heritage-listed centre, a shining example of a medieval town transformed.
