Spain & Portugal

Sept – Oct 2005

Come and experience the best Spain and Portugal have to offer.  The two exuberant countries that compose the Iberian Peninsula share a linked history and overlapping culture. Spain is famous for its vibrant cities, beautiful countryside, charming villages, stunning National Parks and beautiful beaches.  Portugal, its often overlooked neighbour is a destination that deserves attention in its own right. Multicultural, relaxed, friendly and the home of Port wine and mournful Fado (music), Portugal is a unique European nation that is fast becoming a travel hotspot.  The two combined – wow!
