The Costa Verde region
In the north-western part of the country lies this land of dense vegetation and profound historic wealth. It was here that Portugal's first king, Dom Afonso Henriques, was born in the beginning of the 12th century, having then extended the kingdom to the south, in what was considered as one of the most heroic feats of the Christian Reconquest.
First of all, We will get you comfortable with driving around!
We decided to offer to each of our guests a GPS TomTom system, with "Points of Interest" already programmed, and a tour guide, so you can really explore at ease the hidden natural and historical treasures of this millenar, but still little known piece of the Iberian Penninsuola.
You will easily be able to find UNSECO's World Heritage sites withing 35 min driving such as
Guimaraes - check http://www.flickr.com/photos/vitor107/sets/1419542 Porto - check http://www.flickr.com/photos/vitor107/sets/1490653/
Stunning beaches scatter the coastline the neares bing just 30 min away. We would recommend Esposende - check http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/esposende/
We thought you would also like to taste Costa Verde's finest exquisite restaurants, and also maybe indulge in this areas bulging nightlife. We have included great locations in our guide and - to make it a snap for you to find them - in your complimentary TomTom GPS system which you can just "stick" in your rented cars's windscreen!!
Felgueiras area
Felgueiras features romanic monasteries and interesting valleys, and, foremost , it is just 20min away from Portugal's birthplace, Guimaraes.
Felgueiras is a small town in a beautilfull valley of vineyards. Goegraphically, however, Felgueiras is in a hub position - served by motorways to both the stunning medieval towns that made it to the status of UNESCO World Heristage Sites, to the beach resorts nearby, or even to the mountain tresures of the Portuguese National Park.
If you rent a car, thanks to our included GPS system and Tour Guide, you will just be bewildered by the diversity of places, acitivities and things to do.
Mind you, you may as well take a rest, sit in your 5-star Villa, have your meals cooked and served by a Portuguese chef, and just laze off by the pool or retreat to the cool air-con living room and watch Sat TV while drinking a bottle of Vinho Verde...
