Hi, I'm Theo. A few years ago my partner Mia and I packed two backpacks, left home, and never really stopped. We're full-time travellers: we pick a place, live in it long enough to know it properly, then build the guide we wish we'd had on day one. Portugal Vibe is our Portugal edition, and it is one we keep coming back to, from the tiled streets of Lisbon to a slow lunch in the Douro.
We write for everyone
We travel a little differently every year, so we write for every kind of trip. Whether you're a family juggling nap times, a couple on your honeymoon, a group of friends chasing beaches and rooftop bars, or a solo traveller on your first big adventure, you'll find picks here that actually fit. We only recommend places we've been to and things we'd send our own friends to.
What you'll find here
Detailed guides to Portugal: the cities and where to stay, from Lisbon and Porto to the Algarve coast, the beaches and clifftop trails, food and wine from pasteis de nata to port and vinho verde, day trips to Sintra, Obidos and Evora, ready-made itineraries by number of days, and the practical stuff too, money, driving, trains and getting around. Every guide carries current prices, on-the-ground tips and honest answers to the questions people really ask.
How we work
We keep the guides updated and show the last update date on every one. When something changes, a price, opening hours, a new road, we fix it. Spotted a mistake? We'd love to hear about it.
Full transparency
Some links on the site are affiliate links. If you book a hotel, tour or rental car through them we earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. That's what keeps the guides free, and it never changes what we recommend.
