Portugal isn’t just a destination. It’s a collection of unforgettable moments — and one of the best is when you leave the land behind and head out onto the Atlantic. That’s exactly what this collaboration with Discover.pt is about: helping you experience the Algarve coast from the water, whether you’re staying in the region or just visiting for the day.





We now offer the option of a day trip from Lisbon to Lagos, combining a relaxed transfer, a scenic boat tour, and time for lunch — or you can simply book just the boat tour, if you’re already in the Algarve.
And yes, we’re offering 5% off all Discover.pt boat tours, whether you go with us from Lisbon or join directly from Lagos or Portimão.
Option 1: Day Trip from Lisbon + Boat Tour
Start your day early in Lisbon and travel south with us through the Alentejo and into the Algarve. Once in Lagos, you'll board one of Discover.pt’s top-rated boat experiences. After the tour, there’s time for a relaxed lunch by the marina or in town, before returning to Lisbon in the afternoon.
This option is ideal for travellers based in Lisbon who want a taste of the south without changing accommodation.
Option 2: Already in the Algarve? Just Book the Tour
If you’re in Lagos or Portimão, you can book the boat tour directly and still enjoy the 5% discount. Choose the tour that fits your mood: relaxing, adventurous, family-friendly, or romantic.
