Is this basic 7 night itinerary for Porto/Lisbon do-able?

Hello! I am looking at trip to Portugal, flying into Lisbon arriving on Tuesday, 9/15 and out of Lisbon on Tuesday 9/23. Can you look at this and tell me if it seems reasonable before I purchase tickets and start booking hotels/tours?

Arrive Lisbon 9/16 Tuesday late morning, take train to Porto, dinner in Porto

Wed 9/17 full day in Porto

Thurs 9/18 organized tour to Douro Valley OR more Porto

Fri 9/19 private transfer to Lisbon with stops in Coimbra and/or Nazare and/or Obidos. Arrive late in Lisbon

Sat 9/20 Lisbon day

Sunday 9/21 Belem and more Lisbon

Monday 9/22 Sintra with organized tour

Tuesday 9/23 Home

Thank you, in advance, for your time!

Jane that seems very doable and somewhat similar to what we did last Sept. (Although we flew into Porto from Boston)
If I recall Nazare is more "on the way" to Lisbon and if you go there and have time, I would recommend taking the funicular up for the views (they also have drinks, "food truck like" places up there, and a lot of people gather for the sunset). Have fun, its a great country.

This sounds perfect with your allotted time. I loved our organized day trip to Duoro Valley, it was a highlight for me.
