The vibrant city of Lisbon is a popular destination for events with the incredible choice of hotels, food and a warm climate, this little sun trap is home to a wealth of quirky activities outside the box. Whether you’re after a city tour in Go cars, tuk tuks, open top cabriolets (VW Beetle cars) or you’d prefer to cruise the sights via speedboats or sailing, the transport is part of the adventure here. The activities on offer will suit anyone’s taste and can be tailored for different groups or individuals. Some of the amazing options include wine cellar and vineyard tours, as well as private tours and tile painting at the Marques Fronteira Palace. For those seeking a meaningful, local CSR activity, groups can arrange to build toys for a local, social nursery or volunteer for a food saving project to support the local economy.
Portugal’s second largest city, Porto, is also a must-visit for corporate groups. Famed for its port wine and Douro River views, there’s a sense of tranquillity about this region. Packed with luxury spa resorts, it’s an ideal spot for indulging whether that’s relaxing in a jacuzzi or exploring some of the local restaurants and wineries. Cultural tours are also available for those looking for diversity within their programme and if you’re feeling brave enough to dip your feet in the wild Atlantic Ocean, the beaches are also well worth a visit.
Down on the south coast, The Algarve is probably one of the most famous Portuguese regions here’s a host of unique activities and local restaurants to try out. From clam picking in the Rio Formosa to off road tours that encourage guests to discover the local flora and fauna, there’s lots of unexpected options to explore.
