Exclusive One-Week Lisbon Tour for Couples

This was a wonderful, perfectly balanced experience, so well planned by Zicasso’s trip coordinator at the tour company! From the arrivals to the departures, every connection went smoothly. From being met by our excellent drivers and superb, knowledgeable guides, everything that we were able to pack in during our short, intense visit was a well-planned and interesting highlight!

To all of our drivers, thank you! To our guides in Lisbon, Sintra and Cascais, Coimbra, Porto, and Barcelona, much appreciation for your expertise and patience. And the hotels were superb too! We only wish we could repeat the very same mother-daughter trip with more time! We particularly enjoyed a rainy afternoon's sailboat ride on the Douro River with our hostess and the excellent captain.

We had an absolutely wonderful trip experience with Zicasso's tour agency. We planned this trip rather last minute, but everything came out wonderfully. The drivers, the guides, the hotel accommodations (especially the winery where we stayed in the Douro Valley), and the special activities, such as the sunset sailboat cruise in Lisbon, were all incredible. We could not be more pleased with this trip!!! Thank you!

The travel agent from Zicasso's tour company planned for my family of four the most spectacular and luxurious two-week trip around Portugal. We traveled to and enjoyed the highlights of Lisbon, the romantic architecture in Sintra, the incredible history of Évora, the beautiful coastline of the Algarve, the laid-back atmosphere and gorgeous scenery of Madeira, the beautiful, historical, bustling city of Porto, and the stunning scenery of the Douro Valley. 

The travel agent's suggestions and bookings were all perfectly aligned with what we envisioned and the accommodations booked were all beautifully appointed and family-oriented – five-star hotels that catered to the entire family, with indoor pools and kids greeted with backpacks and toys at the door, and nightly treats on pillows.

The tour guides booked were all very knowledgeable and kind. They were patient with my two- and four-year-olds, and taught us all so many new, amazing things.

Every day was a highlight, but I would say my girls really enjoyed the tile painting as well as the pastel de nata-making workshops.

My husband and I really enjoyed Évora and Sintra, and truly seeing the beauty and history of it all.

We absolutely fell in love with Portugal, the culture, and the food. My only regret is not having more time so we could’ve seen the Azores as well and stayed even longer. 

We so look forward to this travel agent planning us another perfect vacation in the near future!

Zicasso's trip planner was exceptional, both before and during the trip. Our 16-day land tour went seamlessly. His attention to detail and follow-up were marvelous.

The hotels were as advertised and wonderful. The drivers and tour guides were always on time and fabulous. The seating for our flamenco show was perfect. The dining recommendations and reservations were wonderful. We loved the window or front-row dining seats overlooking the Alhambra in Granada. We appreciated a last-minute call to a restaurant in Lisbon that lost our lunch reservation, which vaulted us from the outhouse to the penthouse. We have been fortunate to travel many times in the past six years. This trip got elevated to #1. Thank you! We were truly elated that we found our agent through Zicasso.

I would give this trip six stars if possible. Zicasso’s tour operator did an amazing job turning our wish list into reality. Our tour guides were so knowledgeable and accommodating. They felt like family when the tours were over. They shared their love of their country with us and, consequently, we too fell in love with Portugal.
