Hello,
My boyfriend and I are planning a trip to Portugal for end of April beginning of May next year and I am trying to plan out an itinerary. We are planning to use public transit only, and are going to use Air bnb's. We aren't into spending much time on beaches, we are more interested in architecture, museums, and history.
Day 1-4 (4 nights): Lisbon, a day trip to Sintra
Day 5: Travel from Lisbon to Evora
Day 5-6(2 nights): Evora
Day 7: Travel from Evora to Leiria
Day 7-9(3 nights): Leiria, day trips out too Batalha, Alcobaca, and Tomar
Day 10: Travel from Leiria to Coimbra
Day 10(1 night): Coimbra
Day 11: Travel from Coimbra to Porto
Day 11-15(4 nights): Porto
I wasn't sure is Leiria is the best place to stay to do the day tours or if something else makes more sense. We have also considered adding a day to Porto and doing a day trip to Coimbra. This is a lot of day trips I don't know if this is a good idea. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Also one more question for your guys, we like to try and do at least one show music/play/dance, that is tradition to the country any suggestions on what to see in Portugal. I have read about Fado music in Lisbon but that is all I have seen so far.
