Start Your Sahara Adventure

Begin your journey early in the morning from Douz and head directly into the Tunisian Sahara. Watch the first rays of sunlight appear over the golden dunes as the desert slowly comes to life. Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere, fresh morning air, and spectacular views while travelling comfortably by 4×4 with your local driver and guide.

Explore the Golden Dunes

Continue deeper into the Sahara and discover impressive sand dunes, remote desert landscapes, and beautiful natural scenery. Your 4×4 follows sandy tracks away from the usual roads, allowing you to experience the authentic desert environment. There will be several opportunities to stop, take photographs, and enjoy the surrounding landscape.

Discover the Desert

Spend the afternoon exploring more of the Tunisian Sahara and discovering its unique atmosphere. Depending on the itinerary, enjoy a traditional desert experience, a short camel ride or walk, and time to relax among the dunes. Your guide will introduce you to the local environment and share information about life, traditions, and travel in the Sahara.

A Memorable End to the Day

As the afternoon comes to an end, continue to a beautiful location to watch the sunset over the Sahara. See the dunes change color as the sun disappears behind the horizon and take your final photos of this unforgettable landscape. After sunset, begin your return journey to Douz, arriving after a complete day of desert adventure.

Day 1-4

Lisbon

Lisbon is a vibrant, walkable city…that’s if you’re ok with steps and hills. Lisbon is on a serious gradient but with so many charming cafes there are plenty of opportunities to stop and enjoy the local food and drink. The city has become quite popular because of its old-world European architecture, historic sites, great food and wine and plenty of public transportation options to help you get around when your legs tire of the sloping streets. Lisbon has a number of attractions to see depending on your interests. No matter which you choose, keep in mind how fun it is to just walk around exploring Lisbon’s neighborhoods. Stopping for small bites and something to drink a few times a day is the perfect way to balance a day of sightseeing. The food is light (lots of seafood) and delicious. The hills are a great workout. And, quaint cafes are aplenty. Can you think of a better combination for touring a new city?

Day 5-9

Sintra

Pena Palace is a must on a Sintra day trip. It sits on a hill looking like it hopped from the pages of a fairytale. It’s romantic style, brightly colored exterior, ornate interior, and closeness to Lisbon make it many Sintra visitors first stop. Visiting, I couldn’t help but think of the charming Peles Castle in Romania From the Pena Gardens, you can make your way to Pena Park. From there, walk a bit back up the hill to reach the entrance to the Moorish Castle. The stepped stone ramparts leading to the castle’s perch takes you back in time to Portugal’s Moorish years and offers unobstructed views of Pena Palace and the surrounding area. When your visit is done, take the bus back down to Sintra’s historical center. While it’s possible to walk back from here, you’ll want to maximize your time. For the rest of your day in Sintra, choose between the National Palace of Sintra or Quinta da Regaleira in order to have time leftover to enjoy the cute little city that Sintra is. You’ll want to grab a bite, try some port and snap a few great shots before your trip back to Lisbon.

Day 10-14

Porto

Porto has gained quickly in popularity. It’s the second largest city in Portugal, sprawling and perched on top of a huge hill along the Douro River. While you could plan a Lisbon to Porto day trip, the city is in the heart of wine and Port country and is well worth a 2-day visit as part of your Portugal itinerary. After you’re settled in, the Ribeira and the Douro River area should be at the top of your Porto activities list. Dating back to Medieval times, it has the tiny, maze-like streets with old, colorful houses you’d expect and along the way, there are plenty of cafes and shops to discover. It’s a great area to wander on foot. Walk through Ribeira Square, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Today, the square is popular with tourists, but historically, it was Porto’s marketplace where merchants sold bread, fish, and other items. From the Douro River, you’ll see the two sides of Porto connected by the Ponte Luis I Bridge, the Riberia side and the Vila Nova de Gaia side.
