What our Travelers Say About Us
As a solo traveler, I was looking for a mix of adventure and guidance, and Hamilton & Chase delivered. The day trip to Sintra was a highlight—the palaces and gardens were like something out of a dream. I appreciated the thoughtful touches, like having restaurant recommendations that matched my preferences and a flexible schedule that allowed me to explore Madeira at my own pace. It felt less like a group tour and more like traveling with a well-connected friend. Highly recommend!

Portugal Travel Tips by H&C
Before you visit Portugal
-
Check Travel Documents: Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your travel dates. No visa is required for U.S. citizens staying under 90 days.
-
Pack Strategically: Bring comfortable walking shoes for cobblestone streets and light layers for changing weather. Don’t forget a power adapter for Type F plugs.
-
Learn Basic Phrases: While many Portuguese people speak English, learning simple words like “obrigado/a” (thank you) and “por favor” (please) will be appreciated.
-
Book in Advance: Popular attractions like Jeronimos Monastery or Livraria Lello in Porto can have long lines—reserve tickets ahead of time.
-
Understand Tipping: Tipping isn’t mandatory in Portugal, but rounding up the bill or leaving 5-10% for excellent service is customary.
-
Prepare for Currency: Portugal uses the Euro. Have some cash for small purchases, though credit cards are widely accepted.
-
Plan Transportation: Download apps like Uber or Bolt for city travel, and consider a rail pass if you’re exploring multiple regions.
