We are planning for our first trip not only to Portugal but also our first European journey this coming August. Initially, the main purpose of our trip was for a Fatima piligrimage, but since we have 10 days allotted for our vacation, we've decided to see other places in Portugal as well. We've drafted an itinerary of places we'd like to see, squeezing as we can, but not confident we did a good one. We'd be more than glad for suggestions and guidance as it is our first time:
Arrival: Aug 9-11 (3 days) Lisbon, day trip to Sintra
Aug 12-13: Fatima (2 days) for the feast day, 13th of the month
Aug 14-15: Porto (2 days, with 15th falling on a holiday, Feast of Assumption)
Aug 16 (Coimbra and Nazare)
Aug 17-18 (2 days) back to Lisbon; day trip to Evora
Aug 19 departure from Lisbon
To add, we plan to travel by bus to each cities and location.
Question: Are we spreading ourselves too much? If yes, which one should we skip? Is Coimbra and Nazare good for a day trip only?
We are a family of four, our kids 10 and 13 yrs. old. Our boy has a peanut allergy. Will that be a huge concern in Portugal?
Thanks in advance for your assistance!
