Exploration Portugal

Portugal rewards slow, curious travelers, and this nine-day itinerary is built exactly that way — moving deliberately from the tile-covered hillsides of Porto in the north, south through Lisbon's layered neighborhoods, and finally out to the dramatic sea cliffs and golden beaches of the Algarve Coast. The country's entire personality shifts as you go, and your group will feel that shift in the architecture, the food, and the tempo of daily life at each stop.

What teachers say

Verified by teachers — two ways.

On the left, the public Trustpilot reviews any group leader can write — and any future group leader can read. On the right, quotes from the private post-tour evaluation that every group leader fills out after their trip ends. See all teacher evaluations.

Reviews on Trustpilot are public and verified. Trustpilot prohibits companies from paying to have them removed — so what teachers say here is exactly what teachers said about traveling with Passports.

Overall

This was an outstanding tour experience from start to finish. The trip flowed extremely well, with strong attention to detail at every stage. Even when minor issues arose, they were addressed quickly and professionally, which reinforced confidence in the Passports team. I am very much looking forward to my next trip with Passports and would confidently recommend them to any educator.

Overall

When we switched to Passports from our previous travel company, we wanted two things: better food and less time on the bus. Passports exceeded our expectations! We loved having hotels where we could walk and didn't have to get on a bus. Even riding the subway in London was a fun experience!
