Jayme Simoes, a renowned travel consultant for Portugal,  knows all about this tremendously popular country, and gives us loads of inside info. We go over what makes Portugal so special, starting in Lisbon,  and going on to the Portuguese Riviera on the Atlantic just outside the city.  We also discuss the special regions such as the Aletejo, the Algarve, and Portugal's great and ultra-popular second city, Porto.

Jayme goes over cruising on the Douro, taking the train or driving. staying in pousadas, lodging based in former castles and monestaries.

And then we focus on the Portuguese islands of Madeira, off the Moroccan coast,  and the Azores, off coastal Africa.

We end with Jayme's best memory. And a better appreciation of what makes Portugal such an exceptional destination for travelers and expats.
