For a small sliver of land clinging to the far west of the Iberian Peninsula, Portugal serves up an extravagant feast of luxury travel experiences for its guests.
The South
The Algarve in the far south is saturated in sun and swept with golden sands. It remains a firm favourite for family holidays, with plenty of unspoilt areas despite its popularity.
Following the curve of the coast due north, the Atlantic shore’s craggy and weather beaten bays attract surfers with their huge rolling waves. Southern Portugal’s interior remains as idyllic as ever, flourishing with olive groves, citrus orchards, the cork forests of Alentejo and rustic whitewashed villages.
Mixing Moorish and Medieval influences, an infectious late night bar and restaurant scene, boutique hotels and a striking hilltop setting, historic Lisbon still qualifies as a ‘hidden gem’ for a European city escape. The UNESCO World Heritage sites of Belem and Sintra lie just a few hours away.
The North
The north boasts some Europe’s most rugged and untouched scenery, including Portugal’s only National Park and Peneda-Geres, an ecotourism centre defined by rippling mountains, lakes and waterfalls.
Encircled by 14th century medieval walls, Porto is charismatic and memorable city destination. While famed for its baroque churches and the Ribeira – its UNESCO-listed historic centre – Porto remains best known as the home of port wine.
Just across the River Douro, lies Vila Nova de Gaia, where a hotchpotch of 18th century Port Lodges and wine cellars await exploration. The wider Douro Valley is one of Portugal’s most beautiful regions, where vineyard tours and river cruises are recommended for most itineraries.
Rishabh HegdeMarch 5, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.So we used The Pravasi for my honeymoon recently. I spoke to them about what i wanted, the locations, hotels, my likes and dislikes and they got back to me with suggestions and a curated programme. I was very happy with everything. We went to South Africa with their help. From stay, travel, food to itinerary everything was planned. I had someone to talk to at Pravasi and locally 24x7 if i ever needed something. I had a driver guide full time. Activities, food was already paid for. Their staff were really friendly. Locally i met Yvette wh was also very open and friendly. We made changes to plans sometimes but they were very accomodating about that too and helped us with the same. Overall very happy with Kamaya and her team. Thanks for everything, loved it!

Deepika GoyalNovember 1, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.We tried services of THE PRAVASI for the first time this October to plan a 10 day trip to Thailand and we are so thankful to them for planning the most wonderful holiday for us. We had such a beautiful experience in Thailand and it’s all thanks to Camya and THE PRAVASI team! They are really are fab at what they do. Camya gave us some of the best recommendations for places to eat , stay and visit and what we appreciate the most is that she took the time to understad our personal vibe and got that just right. THE PRAVASI is also very budget friendly. All their services including the pick ups from all the locations or even sharing the visa form prior with us so that we don't have to wait in line to get our visa in Thailand was all so meticulously planned. There wasn't a single hiccup anywhere and we had the most pleasant trip. We are so glad that we planned our holiday with The Pravasi and they will be our go to choice for all holidays going forward. Highly reccomend them to anyone who loves to travel and experience different places THE PRAVASI way! More power to you guys!

Biswa ArijitOctober 11, 2021Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.It is easier to just google stuff and make a boutique experience out of the trips. Seems like travel influencers off late just want to start these shops and bank on free travelling because of what we pay them. Good marks to the idea but during execution it just seems unoriginal. Nothing that you can't find off the internet. Better prepare your own itinerary than waste money here. My wife did not like the arrogance at display either. Disappointed.
Ity AggarwalSeptember 6, 2021Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.I have had a very good experience with them.
