Portugal is truly one of the gems of Europe. Me and my girlfriend go at least once a year. Awesome places to see, rich history, SURFING, loads of interesting native grapes meaning interesting wines, food, the great people, and for us northern europeans great weather. Not to mention the pricing. As a swede it's verging on feeling like you're not paying anything at times :)
Unlike most of the travel blogs out there, this one was actually informative. I'm headed to Portugal in 2 weeks, this was great. i especially like the lack of Arial drone video paired with EDM.
I have been to a lot of towns and countries. Lisbon and whole Portugal in general is one of the few places I really really miss a lot. I loved it when I was there 2 years ago.
@@Miguel-nm4tn Yup I am. Well, I can actually agree on that since I have lot of relatives and friends in Istanbul and therefore I saw a lot of similarities. But my parents saw even more similarities. For them Lisbon is the old fairytale Istanbul because they grew up and lived in Istanbul from the 50's-80's until they moved to Stockholm, Sweden where we are actually still living in. I say old fairytale Istanbul because for like 30 years now Istanbul has been one of the fastest growing cities in the world which many European cities haven't so my parents and grandparents who left Istanbul 1975 and during the 80's they feel more like tourists in the city they once grew up in today. I can go as far as to say that my parents and grandparents are more tourist in Istanbul than me even though I was born in Stockholm. I was born in 1998 and we still love Istanbul but here we have generational shift. Me and my siblings have only seen the Istanbul that has been growing constantly and rapidly for like 30 years so when I saw how my parents homesickness suddenly disappeared in Lisbon on a way that I've never witnessed during every visit to Turkey especially Istanbul. Then I understood what they have been talking about for years about the old Istanbul that I never had the chance to see. So yes these 2 cities are in our eyes siblings but my parents really felt that more home feeling in Lisbon because yes, it was like a time travel for them to their younger in their Istanbul they grew up in.
@@oktayikiz2855 thanks for sharing your family story with me, and may God give you and your family health prosperity and luck. You are very welcome to Lisboa and 🇵🇹 everytime you wish. From a Portuguese brother
@@woltersworld Meh, not that perfect... 😅 Me, for example, i understand english perfectly, but when i'm (trying) speaking it, i sound like i have a shoe in my mouth. Probably the lack of practice, i guess.
Went in 2016... decent experience but probably won’t return. Algarve is an absolute tourist trap. Lagos and Albufeira are very underwhelming compare to pictures you see when doing research. Very deceiving.
I was in Lisboa last may and I absolutely loved it! People are so nice, everybody (and their mother) speaks flawless English and the food was awesome. I still miss the Pastel de Nata in the morning. Maybe I'm an ass for thinking Portugal was as unfriendly some Italian cities but I was surprised about how helpful and friendly the Portuguese are. 10/10 would recommend! (This is a Dutchman speaking with a love for germanic and nordic countries)
@Carlos Saraiva don't worry about the weather thing. It was dry and over 21c degrees which is better then the weather in The Netherlands in May. But I've met more Portuguese people that wanted to apologize for the weather (which is absolutely hilarious to me, but that might have something to do with the climate that I'm used to). I think it doesn't help that most eastern european countries don't speak much English, neither do most French or Italian people.
I just got back from my sister's wedding in Portugal. We flew into Lisbon and stayed in the main square the first night which was great just to see the classics of Lisbon right as we arrived. Then we took a bus to Sintra where we stayed most of the time and where the couple actually got married. And finally we ended our trip back in Lisbon and did all of the typical tours, which was actually pretty great since we had a large group and many older folks so planning and comfort were necessary. The country was stunning, even in the rain and fog and the people as a whole were very kind and engaging. I see why you lived there, I can't say I'm not thinking of moving.
This is good stuff, man. You're an ambassador for Portugal. I'm glad you enjoy my country that much, I can tell by the way you speak, you don't hesitate between words neither you need to pause to think. Obrigado
Just came from Portugal. Lisbon is really beautiful but I like Porto more.. more laidback.. more relaxing.. I will definitely go back to Portugal but hoping to go to Algarve next time..
Just returned from Lisboa - they have a fantastic aquarium! We had a great tour around the city in a tuk-tuk, 20 euros per person and well worth it. Also, try a white port spritzer, great summer drink.
tuk-tuk are a plague and a tourist-trap. however, they are good if you wanna "discover" the city quickly (but you only see the true beauty of lisboa if you go on foot)
Olá, listen to Walter's fantastic tips. Great food and great wine. Basically every corner is worth a visit and just a few miles means very different food and wine. Tons of old castles, palaces, convents and churches. Beautiful gardens, parks and forests. Interesting museums. And rather cheap, especially depending where you go.
I went to Portugal in 1997 and loved it. The people were very friendly and helpful and their country is beautiful and I always felt safe, which was important as most of the time I slept in the Ford Transit van I rented, parked in carparks at the beaches. A lot of contrasts like when you are driving through villages, some are very old where you can lean out the car and touch the homes and then you get those that are very new that have wide streets and big front yards like we have in Australia. If I had to live overseas Portugal would be at the top of a short list for me!
*_seafood_* - Mark shows a sunfish when discussing delicious fish of Portugal. 😂😂 *_vinho verde_* - low alcohol fizzy white wine...great for day drinking!! *_bread_* - Same with the pretzels in Prague, don't eat anything already on your table to avoid surprise charges. This was an awesome video. Loved the new and vintage pics! 👍
Moved to Porto from central europe earlier this year and can only recommend visiting Portugal. :-)The people are so overly friendly, you can't even compare it to e.g. the Germans, the Swiss or the French. As tourist you also get along just fine with English.
True, but since the tourist boom started i've seen the signs on the machines changing from "Multibanco" to "ATM". It's kinda sad because you can do so much more than drawing money from them.
It is actually called that way because that's the name of the network that runs most ATMs here. Banks don't really have their own proprietary ATMs, so they created a joint company that's in charge of running the network, to ensure that you have access to the same services no matter which ATM you use. It was actually a pretty innovative service when it originally came out.
It is so nice seeing people say so much good stuff about my country. I love all the love from you guys, everybody is so nice, good spots, foods, wine, cheese, everything in the world we have. I go there every year and I can’t go every where. Nazaré, Lisboa, Leiria, Maideria, Army bases, there is just so much. I recommend Portugal, you may think whole fishes and some other stuff are weird but you should come. :)
Ainda bem que estás feliz amigo...eu sou Português e estou imigrado em França é não vejo a hora de regressar não que tenha algo de errado com França mas tenho muitas saudades do meu cantinho. Grande abraço
This is starting to look like a place where I'll fit in well: low prices, late hours, no need to hurry. Only 3-hour social events bother my introversion, and I worry about that traffic, as a cyclist.
6:41 "You get the tugas dancing..." 😂 For the foreigners here in the comment section asking themselves what the hell are "Tugas"... "Tuga" is just a funny name we portuguese call ourelves. A funny diminutive word for Portuguese. Basically, a "tuga", is a Portuguese person. (And tugas is the plural. Well, you get it...)

Yeah but if you have ever visited graciosa, good luck finding a restaurant with good food, the only good One That there was closed 2 yrs ago, its sad Cuse the island in my opinion hás alot of potencial
Found vinho Verde at my local store several years ago. One of my favorite wines for summer. Hoping to visit next year! Gotta learn little of language now. Our friend born there, grew up in Portuguese neighborhood in New Jersey. Thanks, Wolter family!
Nice dog. But the best dog in the world is "rafeiro alentejano". It almost go extinct a few years ago, i think a lot of portuguese don't even know about it, But i had one, and it blew my mind. Best dog ever. I can't even compare with any other dog. Calm, friendly, very very quiet. Most of the time you forget he's around. But when you need him... Everyone notice him! It can look more fearsome than the meanest dog, and more powerfull than the strongest dog. No wonder they out them in the " danger dogs" list, even if they don't bite no one. I eard (don't know if it's true, But i can believe it) that no one ever record that they bite someone. Very peacefull dog, But can look like a mad dog.
I want to go to Portugal for my senior trip next summer and Ive watched all your Portugal videos and it's helped a lot. I know Spanish but I'm trying to learn Portuguese so I figure itd be a good test of how far I can go without English.

Thank you for your video! It’s very informative and concise, straight to the points instead of being wordy and too much irrelevant stuffs like other videos.
Portugal is a beautiful place. I can't wait to go back for a lengthier trip one day. As a side note, as a native Spanish speaker, i was barely able to understand anything spoken. Reading was a bit easier though. I agree that the people there are some of the friendliest I've ever encountered.
Some interesting info there. Lisbon looks a very appealing city. If I travel abroad again it will be to Lisbon. I would enjoy eating lots of custard tarts.
The Airbnb apartments near Bairro Alto Alfama are very small so much so that cooking anything is a massive chore. Very affordable for eating out. The frangescia national has the best roast chicken. At the bakeries ask for the carcasas fantastic breakfast breads. I shopped at jumbo 9pm. The one way journey on the bus is about 1.45 euro. Public toilets you pay and very few of them in Lisbon.
Jose Coelho my favorite public toilet (just a urinal so, I have actually used it as a woman, kkkk) is the the screened one by the Castelo. I laugh everytime I see tourists taking pictures of it...which I too did when we first moved there.
Woaaa I already commented in a previous video about Portugal but I will declare it again here 😂 Portugal, see ya in February 2022!!!! 🇵🇹 My little getaway from Finnish winter!
I have been loving your videos recently especially on Amsterdam, I'm Irish and your info on my country was spot on. Great help and great videos thank you.
Pretty accurate, I live in Portugal and have lived for a long time and I think tgis vidio is well done and pretty accurate. Very good recomendations and liked the video very much.
Obrigado! I am going to Lisbon with my dad in November and I find this video really helpful. All the other videos I watched tell me what to see but not how to get around Lisbon. Your video is god-sent
I just returned from my first trip to the Algarve and Lisbon and it was awesome! Plus, it's so funny to see the pictures and recognize so many of the sights😅👌🏼
@@robbyandrews6318 It was great. We had sunny weather all week and enjoyed a relaxing 5 days in the Algarve and explored Lisbon for another 3 days👍🏻 In the Algarve we stayed at the Nau Salema hotel, in Lisbon we stayed at the Ramada by Wyndham hotel.
@@zicethmendoza4407 I'm afraid I can't really help you out on this one since my parents paid for the entire trip, sorry😬 However what I can say is that the prices in restaurants are fairly cheap and roughly on the same level as prices in Spain
In the big supermarkets and little groceries stores, you can find so much good stuff to eat, drink or other type of stuff. And it's very affordable and cheap. Go to Continente, for me the best chain of supermarkets in 🇵🇹, if you it's possible.
Hi from South Africa. Oh Portugal sounds wonderful! If only my husband could get a job there, but I doubt they have underground gold mines with job openings for underground winding engine drivers.
The taxi was fun, especially when I visited my girlfriend who was studying in Covilhã at the time. They drive those mountains up and down like crazy felt like a freaking rollercoaster 😂
I like Spain and Italy a lot... but I LOVE Portugal. Probably my favorite country out of the 38 I have been to.
Awesome!

I can already see the people of Portugal and I have the same idea of hours...nighttime is the right time!
Ty direct and to the point. I'm headed there soon.
Have fun!
Love Italy but Portugal will always be my second choice.
You seem so well integrated and happy. Obrigado
I loved living in Portugal.
Thank you for your video! It’s very informative and concise, straight to the points instead of being wordy and too much irrelevant stuffs like other videos.
LOL. I found this channel for my trip to Portugal, which is tomorrow, this video has perfect timing.
Thank you very much for such a comprehensive video. You are amazing
Portugal is a beautiful place. I can't wait to go back for a lengthier trip one day. As a side note, as a native Spanish speaker, i was barely able to understand anything spoken. Reading was a bit easier though. I agree that the people there are some of the friendliest I've ever encountered.
Yeah. Reading was ok but speaking and understanding was worthless for me the first time I visited. No clue :)
You are a great speaker, possibly you are a great salesman. thanks for the video on portugal
Some interesting info there. Lisbon looks a very appealing city. If I travel abroad again it will be to Lisbon. I would enjoy eating lots of custard tarts.
The Airbnb apartments near Bairro Alto Alfama are very small so much so that cooking anything is a massive chore. Very affordable for eating out. The frangescia national has the best roast chicken. At the bakeries ask for the carcasas fantastic breakfast breads. I shopped at jumbo 9pm. The one way journey on the bus is about 1.45 euro. Public toilets you pay and very few of them in Lisbon.
Jose Coelho my favorite public toilet (just a urinal so, I have actually used it as a woman, kkkk) is the the screened one by the Castelo. I laugh everytime I see tourists taking pictures of it...which I too did when we first moved there.
ned kelly I’ll try alfama yellow house next time. Airbnb Lisbon I’ll give it a miss. 👍
Woaaa I already commented in a previous video about Portugal but I will declare it again here 😂 Portugal, see ya in February 2022!!!! 🇵🇹 My little getaway from Finnish winter!
Awesome Tips!!! Thanks .. Planning our first trip to Portugal and all your info is amazing.
I have been loving your videos recently especially on Amsterdam, I'm Irish and your info on my country was spot on. Great help and great videos thank you.

Yassss.. thank you.. Heading there in a week..
Olhao on the Algarve is excellent. Great place & fantastic people 👍🏻
Very good video. Thank you. Obrigado
Pretty accurate, I live in Portugal and have lived for a long time and I think tgis vidio is well done and pretty accurate. Very good recomendations and liked the video very much.
Super helpful. Thank you!
Obrigado! I am going to Lisbon with my dad in November and I find this video really helpful. All the other videos I watched tell me what to see but not how to get around Lisbon. Your video is god-sent
This was a good video we are headed to Portugal tomorrow so excited !
Thanks Wolters, always helping with tips. I liked the "Muito obrigado" at the end. Greetings from Brazil...😉
Whoever's asked you if they speak "Spain” in Portugal or anywhere else on the planet needs to pay a visit to the nut house.
You would be surprised
We live in Italy and my mother in law asked if my kids were learning Spanish. You’d be surprised.
There are no stupid questions, only stupid people asking questions.
I just returned from my first trip to the Algarve and Lisbon and it was awesome! Plus, it's so funny to see the pictures and recognize so many of the sights😅👌🏼
What is it like where did YOU Stay?
@@robbyandrews6318 It was great. We had sunny weather all week and enjoyed a relaxing 5 days in the Algarve and explored Lisbon for another 3 days👍🏻 In the Algarve we stayed at the Nau Salema hotel, in Lisbon we stayed at the Ramada by Wyndham hotel.
I'm trying to go with my friends next year. How much would you say you spent in US dollars?
Thank you!
@@zicethmendoza4407 I'm afraid I can't really help you out on this one since my parents paid for the entire trip, sorry😬 However what I can say is that the prices in restaurants are fairly cheap and roughly on the same level as prices in Spain
Perfect timing! We’re going in a few weeks for our first visit. Awesome video, as usual!
We are looking forward to our visit there next year
I love Portugal.. I lived in ingland for over twenty but I decided to leave UK and move to Portugal... Thank you for your videos
England
In the big supermarkets and little groceries stores, you can find so much good stuff to eat, drink or other type of stuff. And it's very affordable and cheap. Go to Continente, for me the best chain of supermarkets in 🇵🇹, if you it's possible.
You are such a nice man , very warm.love your videos
Portugal is so underrated
Hi from South Africa. Oh Portugal sounds wonderful! If only my husband could get a job there, but I doubt they have underground gold mines with job openings for underground winding engine drivers.
Yay thank you ! Can't wait to go to Portugal
You will love it
Great video! Thanks for posting these!
"You get the tugas dancing"

Love From INDIA 💐💐
Thank you!
Great Video. Thank you for posting.
The taxi was fun, especially when I visited my girlfriend who was studying in Covilhã at the time. They drive those mountains up and down like crazy felt like a freaking rollercoaster 😂
Love your videos! Nice family you have there. :) Goodluck with the traveling!
Love your videos! Now I'm super excited for my trip to Portugal!
