I’m planning a trip to Portugal for next summer, with DCs 10 & 7, for up to two weeks.
We’d like to combine a few days in Lisbon, a day trip to Sintra, few days at the beach, and maybe a trip up to Porto - if the latter won’t make things too much of a rush. Relaxation time is non-negotiable!
Looking for advice on where best to base ourselves - coast and drive into Lisbon, or vice versa, or somewhere else? Also recommendations on areas to stay - nice, not too busy beaches etc.
In terms of accommodation we’ll probably go for air bnb, pref. somewhere where we could get a pool. We prefer less touristy areas (though appreciate Lisbon & Sintra are hardly off the beaten track!) and are interested in traditional/cultural /beauty spots over theme parks etc. Great food also important!
Most grateful for any advice.
Thanks!
