The extensive tour I was on in Portugal sept 12 to sept 29 2024 was one of the best tours I’ve been on. I have travelled a lot over 50 yrs and this tour was way beyond my expectations. Our private tour guide was very knowledgeable, educated, caring and fun to be with. His passion for making the experience of getting to know Portugal from every point was extraordinary. Benny our private guide and driver took us to 14th and 15th century villages with Jewish history. Besides visiting historical villages, we visited a cork factory, wool factory, embroidery group, tapestry museum and illustration of tapestry making, port tasting, wine tasting, tile making, and sites in Lisbon i.e. train station, McDonald’s, riverfront and major statues. In Porto we visited the beach where many expats are living.
Benny wanted my traveling companion and I to experience different types of cooked fish and in the town of Cascais we did.
I highly recommend this private tour given by the Jewish Heritage Alliance. It’s a tour you will be telling your family and friends about for years to come.
