The 10 Best Self-Guided Tours & Rentals in Northern Portugal, Portugal

November 7, 2021 Tynisha Seiler

Brimming with both history and natural wonder, Northern Portugal is home to Porto, the city that gave the country its name, as well as the important ancient town of Braga. Also here is Peneda-Gerês, Portugal’s only national park, a gorgeous wilderness area of mountains, gorges, water features and wildlife. Many picturesque villages and manor houses dot the countryside. Two areas are UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Alto Douro Wine Region, and the Paleolithic rock art in the Côa Valley.

Tour was as described. It was raining almost the whole day but our guide, Joseph, accommodated our requests and showed us as much as he can. He tried so hard to follow the itinerary we set and he shared his knowledge of the places we toured. We were very satisfied with the tour.
