Gloria Farabaugh , Plano, TX - This trip was my first Craftours adventure and I was not disappointed. Our interpreter was a walking encyclopedia on Portugal and our tour guide was very helpful and accommodating. I learned so much while having a great time.
Ann Rogers , Plainfield, NH - What an amazing trip. Ana was a wonderful tour guide with Maria. We saw so much and had quite a few hands-on experiences. This was one of the best trips we have made.
Jane Mesure , Wooster, OH - We visited many authentic local enterprises that wouldn’t be in commercial tour guides and were fascinating.
Janice Marquardt , Van Meter, IA - It was a lovely tour in a beautiful country, with very high quality accommodations. I felt taken care of so that I could simply enjoy being there. The tour guide, driver, and professional Craftours guide were all excellent.
Iruka Florence , Las Vegas, NV - Very well curated and thought-out of every detail for the Craftours Portugal Experience to an exceptionally fantastic experience. The Craftours Portugal Experience provided such ease for patrons to simply enjoy all that was offered in a stress-free environment. The weather was perfect with nothing but sunny days. Simply put, the trip was amazing!
Traci Gamble-Peterson , Henderson, NV - Enjoyed the "rustic" side. Lisbon was beautiful, but the Portugal countryside was amazing. I enjoyed interaction with the "locals".
Brenda Mueller , Minnetrista, MN - The Portugal tour was a fun, educational experience and a great introduction to the urban and rural areas of Portugal. I enjoyed our travel group and the many different experiences we enjoyed during the week together!
Eva Lipe , Perryville, MO - It was a wonderful and very well laid out tour
Ramona Tapper, Polk City, IA - "I really enjoyed this trip- we did get to see the highlights of Portugal- which is what the trip was titled."
Linda Evans, Farmington Hills, MI - "From the very beginning to the farewell dinner, every day was a new experience. The extraordinary landscapes, architecture and friendly people of Portugal made this trip more than I expected. I can’t wait for a return visit."
Barb Khaja, Kalamazoo, MI - "Wonderful trip. Includes so much more than the typical travel sites. The opportunities to visit the local crafts (tile painting/making; hand embroidered tapestries), agritourism (Olive oil farm; Wine making and heritage family estate; cork making and so much more) and local cooking lesson were all so very special. They provide what becomes the highlights of our memories. We had great walks (be prepared as Portugal is hilly and there is a lot of walking) in several picturesque cities. Our mountain drive was so lucky to have a sunshiny day. Beautiful. And on our free day we explored Lisbon and more by taking the metro and a train to Cascais (thanks to great instructions from our local guides) to see that area along with the fisherman's beach/boats."
Nancy Vykouk, Lebanon, TN - "You put together a great tour of Portugal, I felt I was able to experience so much in the 6 days there! The tours were all top notch and the craft excursions were delightful! Well done!"

Tom Otey, Fishers, IN - "Learned a lot about Portugal that the average tourist would never discover."
Kathy Bonnell, Sterling, IL - "Portugal is a beautiful country and the people are friendly. The food and wines are amazing! I loved the castles and cathedrals and the pastries, oh my!"
Maureen Jones, Melbourne, FL - "A very memorable visit to Portugal. We spent time in Vila Vicosa, a small, beautiful town and in Lisbon, a large city, so we got to enjoy two vastly different parts of the country. The crafts the local artisans shared - cork, wood painting, dolls, gold restoration and sidewalk pavers were a few that I enjoyed. The passions, of the artists were passed on and it was evident their crafts were a labor of love. The local people we met were kind, friendly and helpful. The other tour members were delightful, and I thoroughly enjoyed spending days with them, and look forward to meeting them on future trips."
