Hop aboard a river cruise down the spectacular Douro Valley where students will spend some time exploring the vast mountainous landscapes and the medieval towns in-between. While in Lisbon, discover vibrant beaches, ancient ruins, white dome cathedrals, and hilltop views. After a few days in the bustle of Lisbon, retreat to the southern beaches of Algarve who's natural landscapes are a warm-up for the breathtaking islands of the Azores.
