Hello all,
We are planning a last minute winter trip to Portugal over New Years. It is part of a larger itinerary and plan to fly into Lisbon on New Years Eve and fly out of Porto back to the U.S. We only have a total of 8 nights.
Our current plan is to spend the first 4 nights in Lisbon and the final 2 in Porto. We have two nights in between that we are trying to fill and are considering a seaside town like Nazare or Coimbra. In January, what would you recommend?
This will be our first trip to Portugal. The closest we have been is a summer roadtrip through Northern Spain, which we absolutely loved. The region we liked most was Galicia (the coast from Muxia to Cambados)--its fresh seafood, delicious wines, and the wonderful coastal walks! We are also considering renting a car on this trip, for these two days only.
We would welcome all suggestions on our itinerary. Thank you in advance for your thoughts.
