What are the check-in and check-out times at the hotels?

Typically, hotel check-in time is from 14:00, and check-out must be completed by 12:00 noon.

I would want to end the tour in albufeira so this way I'm missing the last night in Lisbon. My question is if you can give me instead another night in albufeira hotel or refund me one night in lisbon hotel?

We can not replace nor remove anything from our packages unfortunately. If you wish, I can add 1 additional night in Albufeira however, you will have to make your way back to Lisbon at the end. If you do not want to return back to Lisbon, you will have to forfeirt the transfer back and 1 night in Lisbon as it is part of our package.

Can I request specific accommodations, like twin beds?

Requests for specific accommodations such as twin beds can be made and are subject to availability at each hotel.

What kind of transportation is used between tour locations?

The tour utilizes comfortable coaches equipped with air conditioning for long journeys between cities.

Are there options for solo travelers?

Solo travelers can either share a room with another solo traveler of the same gender or opt for a single supplement to have a private room.

Is there a way you can provide names of hotels for us to check out? We were ready to sign up for Portugal tour until we read the reviews.

We almost always use the hotels listed below for our groups to Portugal. If one of these hotels is exceptionnaly not available, we will select a similar one. Hotels: 5 nights in Lisbon at the Marques de Pombal 4* hotel (or similar) in a standard room, 3 nights in Porto at the Fenix Porto 4* hotel (or similar) in a standard room, 3 nights in Albufeira at the Velamar Boutique 3* hotel (or similar) in a standard room.

Is there a visa requirement for the tour?

Visitors from many countries require a visa to enter the tour destinations. Please check the visa requirements for your nationality.

Is there an age restriction for tour participants?

The tour welcomes participants of various age groups, catering to both younger and older travellers.

What activities are included in the tour?

The tour includes various sightseeing activities and entry to major attractions, which will be highlighted in your itinerary.

When you stay we need to go to the bus station to catch a bus, is this a public bus or private bus and how do we get there? Is the guide with us every day? I'm a little confused about this tour.

Your transport between Lisbon-Albufeira-Lisbon is included: you will be transferred to the bus station to take a shuttle. Upon arrival, you will be picked up and transferred to your hotel. There will be a guide with you everyday between Day 2 and 7. The part in the Algarve is not guided as you will be enjoying time at leisure.

Poor organiation -Wingbuddy spent way too much time criss-crossing to Lisbon with a very inaccessible hotel. Drivers faced traffic delays,lacking of parking and difficulty accessing the hotel. One day hit a parked car trying to park our. driver also got lost one day in the countryside.WE would have had another day in the Algarve if not returning needlessly to Lisbon.WE should have flown directly from FARO to the AZORES but were again routed through Lisbon.But the WORST was yet to come. Wingbuddy failed to notify us of a flight cancellation leaving us stranded when the problem was EASILY solved if notified in time.You and your $$$ deserve better.Show more
