Come and discover the many ingredients that make the BikingMan Portugal so special: explore the Algarve mountains and the fortified cities of the Alentejo, follow the Spanish border, reach the Atlantic coast and the western-most point of Europe and enjoy the warm and vivid atmosphere of Spring.

Until the 12th century, Portugal was part of the Iberian Peninsula with Spain and was for a long time the scene of multiple occupations by the Celts, Phoenicians, Carthaginians and Greeks. Its name comes from Terra Portucallis, which refers to two towns located at the mouth of the Douro: Portus (current Porto) and Cale (current Vila Nova de Gaia).

The Algarve and Alentejo regions are covered with countless plains and hills that run towards the ocean. Between the “golden plain”, the mountain range of the Algarve and the rough coasts of the southwest, the country conceals spectacular secret routes. Much of the country’s architectural heritage dates from the 1500s to the 1800s, when Portugal was a powerful maritime empire.

The Portuguese people, recognized as one of the warmest in Europe, will offer you a family welcome and generous gastronomy.
