Personalized Tours & Trips in Minho

Check out medieval Castelo de Guimarães and the 15th-century Paço dos Duques de Bragança, both symbols of Portugal's birthplace. Head into Peneda-Gerês National Park to find Cascata do Arado waterfall and take in views from Pedra Bela, then ride a Douro River boat from Porto to Peso da Régua.

Customize your 8-day Minho walk from Ponte de Lima through Upper Minho's hills and coastal trails. Trek the Portuguese Camino to Valença, check out Vila Nova de Cerveira's art scene, then hike the Costa Verde to Viana do Castelo with flexible pacing and luggage transfers throughout.

This 8-day trek through Peneda-Gerês National Park includes private transfers between Castro Laboreiro, Lindoso, and Viana do Castelo. Hike through forests at Lamas do Mouro Park Gate, cross the River Lima near the Spanish border at Várzea, then climb to viewpoints over Soajo Mountains.

This private self-guided trip through Portugal's only UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve lets you travel at your own pace, from the fortified mountain village of Castro Laboreiro to the medieval charm of Ponte da Barca. Pick between shorter 6 km trails or challenging 16 km routes through the Peneda River valley, spotting rare Cachena cattle and Castro Laboreiro sheepdogs along ancient cart paths. You'll stay in carefully selected 4-star accommodations like boutique guesthouses in Arcos de Valdevez, where you'll try CNN-recognized Slow Food cornbread and crisp Vinho Verde wine from surrounding vineyards.

Small-group tours limited to 8 travelers take you to Portugal's UNESCO-listed sites, including the baroque Bom Jesus do Monte Sanctuary and Guimarães' medieval center where Portugal was born. Have a traditional Minho lunch inside Valença do Minho's fortress, taste Vinho Verde at Breijoeira Palace, and ride the funicular to Viana do Castelo's Santa Luzia basilica for Atlantic coastal views.
