Go now! The secret is out, but it’s still a steal by European standards and there are so many amazing spots to explore.

to & from

Lufthansa from SFO/Frankfurt/Porto and back home from Lisbon/Frankfurt/SFO. We wanted to explore as much of the country as we could in 12 days, so rented a car for freedom and flexibility. We ditched our car while in Lisbon, then rented another for the drive south to The Algarve.

Where to Stay

Opo Bolhão Apartments: Clean, spacious, air-conditioned, apartments right across the street from Bolhao Market. Walking distance to everything.
