Our travel tips for Portugal

Blick auf die bunten Häuser in einem Dorf auf der Insel Madeira, Portugal
“In Madeira, you can find great, high-quality accommodation on a hillside with a sea view at a good price. I always recommend choosing the south if possible, as the north can be very changeable in terms of weather. Self-catering accommodation is not necessary as there are usually excellent food options in Portugal.”

What is there to discover on your trip to Portugal?

Lisbon

Lisbon is one of the liveliest cities in Europe. A visit to the Portuguese capital is an absolute must on your trip to Portugal. The city, built on seven hills, offers an ideal mix of historic and modern districts. Baixa and Alfama are among the most beautiful. Highlights include a ride on the famous tram line 28, the Elevador de Santa Justa, and the Torre de Belém.More...

Porto

Apart from Lisbon, Porto is the other major city in Portugal. Its old town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and its proximity to the sea make it one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country. Wine lovers should definitely enjoy a port wine tasting.

Braga

One of the oldest cities in the country, Braga is always worth a visit. In this northwestern city, you’ll find numerous historical landmarks, including the oldest cathedral in Portugal, the Bishop's Palace, and the pilgrimage church Bom Jesus do Monte.

Faro

Faro offers the typical Portuguese lifestyle. In this Algarve city, you can spend the day on Praia de Faro beach or visit sights such as the cathedral in the old town. The mild year-round climate attracts many visitors to the Algarve coast, where fine sandy beaches, rugged cliffs, secluded bays, and small fishing villages await.

Albufeira

Albufeira is known for its trendy bars and nightlife, where you can dance until the early morning hours. Outside of town, you’ll find orange and lemon groves and scenic mulberry trees that add to the charm of the landscape.Less

Practical information for your trip

The best time to visit Portugal is from April to October. During these months, daytime temperatures typically range from the low 70s to the high 70s °F (around 70–80 °F), and there’s minimal rainfall — perfect for both beach days and outdoor activities like hiking. You can find more details on the best time to plan your trip to Portugal depending on the season, region, travel style, activities, and more here.

The cost of a trip to Portugal starts at approximately $1,100 per week (excluding flights). This includes stays in 3-star hotels, dining at quality restaurants, popular activities, and a mid-range rental car. That works out to about $155 per day. You can find more details on Portugal travel costs for food, activities, accommodations, flights, and more here.

The official language of Portugal is Portuguese.

Portugal uses Western European Time (WET), the Azores Times (AZOT) is used in the Azores, which corresponds to a time difference of one hour (UTC-1).

The largest airport in Portugal is the Aeroporto Humberto Delgado Lisboa in Lisbon.

The fact that we found Tourlane was a blessing! Everything was just right right from the start: the "anamnesis" of our travel wishes, so to speak, i.e. the precise recording of what we wanted as customers, the friendliness, the flexibility, the competence (which was evident in the advice and tips), fantastic hotels that almost always met our wishes exactly or even exceeded them, the wonderful itinerary, the first-class price-performance ratio.

I was very pleasantly surprised because we had never experienced a trip organized by someone else before. The organization of the intermediate transfers was particularly good, helpful and relaxing. The general organization for the duration of our trip and the recommended number of excursions and the hotels were also very good and suited us well. The availability of a contact person on site or from Tourlane by email was also given and helpful. Gladly again with Tourlane! Thank you very much.
