This is not a typical hike it is a private journey into a wild landscape just south of Lisbon, where nature, history, and spirituality meet. No crowds, no tourist paths only cliffs, ocean, and silence. We follow coastal trails to discover real dinosaur footprints preserved in the rock, over 160 million years old. You do not just see them, you stand where they once walked. For the more adventurous, there is an optional descent toward a hidden beach, adding a sense of discovery to the experience. The route is easy, around 3.3 km, suitable for most travelers, including families. No rush, just time to enjoy the moment. Cabo Espichel is also one of Portugal’s most important sacred sites. Along the way, I share stories while adapting the experience to your pace. A simple local tasting adds a memorable touch. Availability is limited, advance booking is recommended.

This is not a typical beach trip — it’s a private, curated experience for travelers who want more than just a view. The hidden beach is not accessible by car — you reach it on foot via scenic coastal trails and a historic fishermen’s staircase carved into the cliffs. The journey itself is part of the reward. The hike ranges from 3 to 7 km, depending on the route, with several options available. The difficulty is moderate to high (4/5) and requires good physical fitness. Expect uneven terrain, steep descents and ascents, and occasionally slippery sections. Hiking poles are available free of charge upon request. Unlike standard tours, this experience is fully private and flexible, with no fixed pace or large groups. It’s a balance of movement and stillness — an active coastal hike followed by time to swim, relax, and enjoy a light picnic at a secluded Atlantic cove. This is not for everyone — and that’s exactly the point.

The same way “Rome wasn’t built in a day” neither was Évora. With more than 2000 years of existence, and about 500 years of roman rule, the roman Ebora represents one of the most interesting places to understand the importance of the roman cultural legacy in Portugal. Known worldwide for the roman temple, traces of this culture can be seen everywhere, providing an unforgettable connection with this distant past that left undeniable traces in the western world, in art, law or even democracy. Don’t miss this unique chance to connect with the roman past of Portugal!
