Hey!👋 Do you want to experience things that regular people usually miss and learn about the hidden gems💎of the north of Portugal? I have the perfect adventure for you! I'm excited to share with you a taste of Trás-os-Montes (a region in the north of Portugal) in 4 days. Yes! 4 days where we'll go back in time to historical buildings 🏰, experience cultural dishes 🥘, have a chance to taste our Portuguese lovely Douro wines (optional) 🍷, adventure in a set of activities in Pena Aventura Park 🌄 and finally to get back home well rested a visit to a spa on Pedras Salgadas nature park. 🚗 Since the area we're going to travel to is composed of villages/nature, and we have little time, to be more efficient our transportation will be done by a rental car. I can drive, although other drivers are always warmly welcomed. 🪧 This is a place that I know very well so, for me, it's easy to adapt including any suggestion you might have, my only concern is having a smooth journey during this little duration trip, balancing relaxation and active times. 🤝 The activities are a mix of cultural and natural experiences that stimulate the use of all your senses. I'll go into more detail about each one in the day's description. I do have some others under my sleeve, depending on the preferences of the TripMates I'll be sharing this trip with. 🫰 For expenses like groceries or other activities, we'll be using the app Sliptwise to help us sync with our responsibilities. 🥺 In the unfortunate case of not finding 6 TripMates, we'll have to share a higher price on accommodation and transportation.
I'm a very open-minded and active person that will show and tell you, with great pleasure, the best of this part of the north, a place filled with history and natural richness ready to make you feel alive and connected with yourself.
🏡 Our accommodation will be a complex of bungalows, meaning that we'll have 3 bungalows T1: 2 single beds 🛏 shared room T2: 2 double beds in separate rooms + 1 sofa bed T2:2 double beds in separate rooms + 1 sofa bed Options are couples 🫂 friendly. The house is equipped with all the comforts we might need, we do have a complete kitchen in addition to a wonderful garden/patio with a barbecue station and pool to relax and use in case we want to have meals at home. **** In case no one wants to stay on the sofa bed I have an alternative stay. See you in May! A warm hug from Portugal 🤗. Any questions about the trip? You can let me know in the Q&A section!
