Porto and Sintra

This tour which will take you through two fantastic sites.

Sintra, the lush town and a hill, chosen by the Portuguese kings to spend their summer holiday, and a second residence for many well-known writers. This town is a fairy tale, especially because of the romantic Pena Palace and the mysterious Regaleira park and palace.

Porto, a World Heritage Site, located beside the Douro River has an incredible history. We will get to know Port wine, and understand why we say "the older, the better!" We will take a look at the history of the town, the architecture, the view of the Douro Valley, and even some of the traditional boats that carried the wine.

All of these fantastic details will be revealed to you, using a PowerPoint with unique drone made videos and memorable pictures all commented live, in the comfort of your home. This trip will be presented in French Simultaneou
