Description
Begin your day in either Porto or Braga, heading north into Portugal’s lush Minho region. As you arrive in Ponte de Lima, time slows down. Cobbled streets, an ancient Roman bridge, and quiet riverside views create the perfect introduction to a day rooted in history. Continue through the natural beauty of Arcos de Valdevez, where green valleys and gentle landscapes prepare you for the crossing into Spain. In Galicia, the atmosphere shifts subtly, familiar, yet distinct. In Pontevedra, wander through one of the most charming historic centers in Spain. Car-free streets, lively squares, and centuries-old architecture invite you to explore at your own pace. Then, the journey opens to the Atlantic.
