10+ Photographic reasons to road trip through Portugal

We have spent the last two weeks road tripping the back roads of Portugal with Goldcar. With so many hidden gems off the tourist trail, the best way to discover Portugal’s natural beauty is by following the coastal roads and discovering all that Portugal has to offer. They say a photo says 1000 words, so we figured we would let them do the talking for this blog.

1. The Waterfalls of Geres National Park

2. Porto city

3. Bom Jesus, Braga

4. Guimarães Castle, Guimarães

This city is often referred to as the “birthplace of the Portugal”

5. Nazare

Home to the world’s biggest waves

6. Pena Palace, Sintra We stayed at Almaa hostel

7. Portinho da Arrabida, Arrabida National Park

8. Porto Covo, Vicentine coast, Alentejo

We finished our Goldcar road trip in Faro and then caught a bus into Seville, ready to start the next part of our journey into Croatia. If you liked this blog and want to convince your friends to go on a Portuguese Road trip, then share this via social media.
