Juniper Tours plans luxury, fully private Portugal vacations — Lisbon’s tiled hillsides, the terraced vineyards of the Douro, soulful food and wine and an unhurried welcome — every itinerary built from scratch around you. No group coaches, no fixed departures.
Portugal earns the superlatives it gets — remarkable food, exceptional wine, centuries of Atlantic history, and a warmth in the people that makes every city feel like a small town. The country moves at a pace that rewards travelers who give it time.
Lisbon is the entry point, but it’s not the whole story. The hilltop palaces of Sintra are thirty minutes away. Porto — one of the most charismatic riverside cities in Europe — is three hours north. The Douro Valley beyond it is among the most visually extraordinary wine regions on earth. Taryn Harrison and Lexi Blade design Portugal itineraries that go well beyond the surface.
Great European travel is an investment. Most clients spend $5,000–$15,000 per personfor a complete custom Portugal itinerary — trips start at $2,500 and your specialist will walk through exactly what that looks like for yours.
This is a starting point, not a fixed package. Many Juniper clients travel something very similar — customized for their travel style, dates, and accommodation preferences. Book a free call and your specialist builds from here.

Six focused days in one of Europe's most beautiful capitals — the tiled hilltop neighborhoods, intimate Fado venues, extraordinary seafood, and the Atlantic coast within easy reach. Lisbon rewards a slow pace more than almost any other European city.
Portugal's most celebrated food and wine destination — Porto's charismatic riverside city paired with two nights in the Douro Valley itself, cruising between terraced quintas and tasting at the estates that define Portuguese wine.
An immersive nine-day journey through Portugal's most iconic regions — available as a private custom itinerary or as a small group departure for those who want a refined, expert-led group experience with like-minded travelers.
Portugal's mid-Atlantic archipelago — volcanic crater lakes, hydrangea-lined roads, whale watching from Pico, and hot springs on São Miguel. Four islands, each with its own character, connected by short inter-island flights.
The Iberian Peninsula in two weeks — combining Portugal's intimate Atlantic culture with Spain's architectural grandeur. Two countries that share a peninsula but feel entirely different. Designed by specialists who know both.
An Algarve coast extension, the Alentejo wine plains, a heritage trail through the Minho — tell your specialist what you have in mind and they’ll build from there.

Book a Consultation →“Taryn planned the most incredible Portugal trip for us — Lisbon, Sintra, Porto, and the Douro Valley. Every hotel was perfect, every transfer was on time, and the local guides she arranged were exceptional. We came home already planning our return.”
“We had no idea Portugal would become our favorite European country. Juniper designed every detail — the wine dinner in the Douro Valley alone was worth the trip. Absolutely flawless from start to finish.”
“Portugal exceeded every expectation. Lexi’s recommendations for Lisbon were spot on — the fado dinner, the Sintra day trip, the tiny restaurants in Alfama. This was exactly the kind of trip we’d been looking for.”
“The Douro Valley was the highlight of the entire trip. An evening at a quinta with private wine tasting and dinner with the family that owns the vineyard — I don’t think I’ll ever forget it. Juniper made it look effortless.”
“I randomly came across Juniper Tours on a Google search. I’m glad I did. Our specialist put together a perfect Portugal itinerary — everything from the hotels to the fado evening to the recommended restaurants was amazing. Already talking about going back.”
“Juniper helped us build a Portugal and Spain trip from scratch. Every connection was seamless, the hotels were extraordinary, and the Porto food tour was the best meal experience of our lives. We would not hesitate to recommend them.”
