- Portugal has been on every "top travel destination" blog for years. Over a 2-week road trip we explored the beautiful castles, incredible history, and rugged coastline, from Lisbon to Sintra down to the world-renowned Algarve beaches and caves, and then all the way up to the rolling vineyards of the Douro Valley wine region in this fascinating slice of Europe.

I swear, your kids are getting the best childhood life has to offer. Bless them for having such wonderful parents.
Yeah, i was thinking the same thing. It´s funny cause i lived all my life in Portugal and that was my childhood.
We never give enough value to the things that we have.
I'm brazilian and I live in Brazil but I always spend my holidays in Portugal. Portugal has everything that any other country has and, above all, it is a peaceful and safe country. Unfortunately, a video with just over 15 minutes doesn't show even 1% of the natural beauties, historical monuments, castles, medieval towns, ecological villages and much more that Portugal has to offer. Portugal has hundreds of small villages (aldeias) with a tourist structure and dozens of medium-sized cities in which the visitor cannot imagine what he can find. I'm suspicious to talk about Portugal because I love this country.
❤️
Well done bro !
Nice comments to a friendly and safe country!
Cheers
Obrigado Francisco. I was born is Lisbon. I've been living in the Netherlands since 1970, but visit Portugal almost every year. You are absolutely right about Portugal having so much more to offer. Nevertheless this guy managed to capture some spectacular highlights in just a few days. Some of them I have visited only more recently, like Praia de Ursa and Benagil cave. The Monserrate Palace and gardens, I have been visiting almost every 2-3 years or so. It has been restored but wasn't finished the last time I visited it.
pak you coconut! tell me about portugal girls, are they enough beautiful & sexy ?😉😘
The story telling, the editing, the visuals, EVERYTHING in this video it's just out of this world, amazing work!
🙏🏻
Portugal is a beautiful country full of warm and amazing people. Love it so much. It's like Spain but better on everything
You can like both, it is not like one should be winning like in a football game, that is silly.
IMHO Spanish beaches and water temperature are much much nicer, and it is much bigger and diverse, but I love Portugal as well and enjoy it a lot.
@@Daniel-nt5gh beaches are nicer? you mean the ones with brownish sand? please, it is a known fact that Portugal has better beaches, obviously Mediterranean sea has better temperature
@@NeoJoaoSurf Spain is number one speaking about blue flag beaches. Blue flag beaches are the rating for the best possible quality including sand, water and services, that is a fact.
Some people love to go to the beach and don't being able to get into the water not even in August for more than 3 minutes.
But I don't, and the older you get the more you hate that.
We have more coastal area at the Atlantic than Portugal plus all the Mediterranean and Cantabric sea, so... no, there is really no contest.
But I like Portugal is a tiny beauty, don't show a Napoleon complex trying to put down other countries, you shouldn't need it if you were sure about Portugal being the best.
Really, it makes look anyone silly.
@@Daniel-nt5gh not putting down anything, just a fact that we have whiter sands, go to Algarve and see by yourself. there is a reason why spanish people go on holidays to Portugal and vice-versa. having more coastal area doesn't mean anything haha. I didn't say Portugal was the best anywhere, i'm just calling you on your bullshit.
@Armand I'm sick of hearing that. Again an appalling comment towards Spain. Ever been to Galicia or Asturias? Your comment is embarrassing and an insult to intelligence.
Excellent work. 🇵🇹 Portugal is the most epic little country on the planet.
Caralho ♥️🇵🇹

What the heck did I just watch.... *mind blown* . The editing, the sound design, the storytelling. I cannot believe I just watched a 16:36 long video and felt disappointed when it ended because it was too short... You told the story about Portugal so beautifully! Man, you got some skills!
We are on our way to Portugal for the winter and I know about all these places. This video just confirms all of our reasons for going there! (currently in Prague, slow traveling our way from Northern Europe to the south).
Thanks Thomas 🙏🏻 That sounds like an amazing trip you’re on! Wouldn’t mind slow traveling Europe with the kids some day myself. Enjoy Portugal when you get there! 🎉
I’ve watched this video with smile on my face and light in my heart. My country of Portugal represented in the best way possible by such great people. Yes it has the sun and the beaches, the palaces and the wines, but what makes Portugal so majestic is it’s people. Obrigado!
After spending this last December and January in Portugal I'm so smitten with this country. Can't wait to return.
Amazing visuals and story telling as always!
Thanks Kay! 🙏🏻
@@FernwehChronicles very well done in did
I swear this is the most underrated travel channel on TH-cam, but I have a feeling that's about to change! Another incredible video! I already wanted to go to Portugal, now I REALLY want to go!
Thanks for coming along for quite some time now! 🙏🏻❤️
This is a lovely video and so beautifully edited =) I also am from Colorado and moved to Portugal in 2016 and am thrilled to see the rise in interest for this amazing and historic country!!! Obrigada...
No way! I hope you’re having a great life out there! 🙌🏻
I‘m bawling…
Portugal is where my heart is, right at the moment when I saw the beach of Almoçageme I knew this will be an amazing film. You could catch in pictures why I love this country from the bottom of my heart since 1994, the first time I stepped foot there, and why I will move there one day.. You showed the world my happy place and I‘m convinced that I can speak for many, many people.
Obrigada. 🙏🏽
🥹🙏🏻
The name of that beach is praia da Adraga ,very dangerous water there but beautiful beach
what are you waiting for ? you don´t need a formal writen invitation!! this is not "my country"....this is ....our planet !😀
@@marcofernandes9455 ♥️ I am an actress in Germany and working in Portugal wouldn’t have been easy for me 20 years ago. Then I became a mom, my then partner didn’t want to move. My biggest is 18, but I have a little son and I‘m separated from their dad. I couldn‘t just leave and separate my kid from his father…
In around 10 years, when he is old enough, I‘ll definitely move to Portugal and to its beautiful people. ☺️
Your German (atleast living there) right? But your comments it’s entirely true about Portugal, awesome Country.
Portuguese greetings.
Congratulations to the wonderful family, seeing the children so happy it is clear that you are doing an excellent job in your children's education. Congratulations on that.
You have the gift of capturing the essence of people and places, this is very rare and very precious. The video is wonderful and I hope you visit Portugal again, because Portugal has many wonderful places that I would like to see through your camera and thoughts.
A big hug and all the best.
Portugal, is a mosaic of diversity! A Patchwork!🇵🇹👍🏻
So glad you had the opportunity to discover this amazing country. Portugal is truly beautiful and so underrated. I just love living here and don't regret one bit leaving Canada behind. The locations you visited are a must but you guys just scratched the surface of what is there to discover. Hopefully you'll be back to discover much more! Had a great time watching you video and thanks for sharing your experience.
Thanks for coming along Nuno! 🙌🏻
Orgulho de ser Portuguesa 🇵🇹😍❤️💚 Thank You so much 👏👍
Visitei seu país em Janeiro / Fevereiro de 2022. Portugal é ÉPICO!
O País, o Povo maravilhoso, a culinária, os castelos, a história, você tem muito que se orgulhar desse país incrível e sensacional!
@@dalecooper9942 Thank You so much 😍🇵🇹👍
@@dalecooper9942 Obrigado
Visitem Portugal e ficarão apaixonados
Abraço desde Aveiro 🇵🇹
Amazing video!! I am Portuguese emigrated and this video made me want to by the ticket back to my beautiful country… and for that, THANK YOU!
❤️
Incredible story told beautifully. The cinematography and drone footage were incredible!
Absolutely Stupendous and Mesmerizing landscape as well as Architecture Visible in Portugal !
I’m in Portugal right now it’s such a beautiful place and so lovely
I'm blowing away with your imagens +editing + storytelling. Congrats! And thanks you to show the internet how beautiful my country is!
9:45 Poor kid. Olives direct from the Olive tree are very very sour. 😂
1st you need to let them "bath" several days in water with high salt concentration, garlic and herbs.
Change that "bath water" several times during that period until they are ready to eat.
PS. Our Portugal is amazing, isn't it?! 😉
Bodhi and the rest of us (which didn’t make it into the video) learned that the hard way… 😂
Ooohhhh…you’ve missed so many … manyyyyy… amazing and unique places 😅 Gerês, Porto, Sistelo, Coimbra, the interior of Portugal (with the historic villages, waterfalls, rivers, mountains and castles), Obidos, Tomar, Batalha, Alcobaca, Coimbra, Évora, the entire Alentejo …
Madeira...Açores...e por ai fora....
Its true
Is there a better reason to come back?
Thanks for the feedback
@@FernwehChronicles I dont think they meant it as a criticism. Probably more as there is so much more to enjoy and you can come back to visit all of those other amazing places. Thank you for the awesome video!
Thank you for this beautiful video. I can't wait to visit Portugal now.
Enjoy your time in Portugal! 🔥
I'm almost speechless because this video is really outstanding. It was a great pleasure to watch it. The images of the places you visited are wonderful. Your voice narrating the video is absolutely gorgeous. Congrats for your skillful work.
You are a nice and fun family.

Absolutely incredible video! 🤯 Impressive skills 10 out of 10. Masterful. I’ve been watching videos about Portugal for the past two years and there is nothing like this. A true form of art. It’s truly remarkable what you were able to put together. This video should have several million views by now. You deserve them! Everyone needs to share, like, and subscribe.
😅❤️🙏🏻
It's like watching a movie. Amazing quality!!
Inspirational!!!
Beautiful
I been following your channel recently and have to say it's mind blowing your latest videos from the last 18 months. I like the style and I see how much work you put into them from constantly filming a whole day and then the editing afterwards. Thanks for sharing your jouney it gives a very good impression. Definelty to explore all countrys to fullest I also thought that it might need at least 1-3 months depend where and when and what.
Greetings from the Arctic North inside the polar circle Northern Norway.
Love you guys' content!
You guys have one of the best vlogs ever! Period. Every video is a visual treat in itself.
☺️
I came across your first video 2 days ago and I've watched every one since. Your videos are so compelling and you deserve so much more recognition!!
Wow, thanks JT! 🔥🙏🏻
same here, completely agree... watched portugal & fell in love, from the voice over, the family, the cinematography, wow!
❤️🙏🏻
It have to come a person from other country to see and talk about Portugal with all for this passion. Thanks for your beautiful vision! Really amazing
Thank you Ana! ❤️
Watching this video to me, felt like going to a theatre and I just watched the best trailer for an upcoming movie.
I would love for this story to continue in the way you presented this intro to Portugal. Great job selling Portugal.
Thanks for coming along Joe 🙌🏻
Glad you guys enjoy my country, Miss Portugal every single day. Hugs from Toronto Canada.😊😊😊
Wow, time for a visit back home!
Canon colors are so beautiful, cant wait to hit portugal
Man I really love your story telling. People may call big name like Peter and Sam kolder as their inspiration , but my inspiration is you. So underrated you are bruh.
This is probably the best compliment I have gotten to date! 😅 Thanks bud 🙏🏻
