Portugal is Western Europe's best-kept secret and most underrated destination — an ancient maritime nation of extraordinary beauty, world-class cuisine, fado soul music, fairy-tale palaces and some of Europe's most dramatic coastlines. Lisbon enchants with its vintage yellow trams rattling up steep cobblestone hills, its pastel-coloured azulejo tile facades and its melancholic fado music drifting from the Alfama neighbourhood.
Porto, 3 hours north by train, is arguably Europe's most beautiful riverside city — a tangle of Baroque church towers, crumbling medieval houses and wine caves across the Douro River, where port wine has been aged for centuries. And the Algarve's golden limestone sea arches are among Europe's most spectacular coastal scenery. Best of all, Portugal offers extraordinary value — EternalMiles Portugal packages from India deliver a truly premium European experience at refreshingly accessible prices.
