The greatest opportunity to discover the highest mountain in Portugal: the Serra da Estrela! 

Your private tour starts in the morning with a pick up at your accommodation. We will drive towards one of the most special places in the whole country: the Serra da Estrela, located in the Centre of Portugal. Here, have the opportunity to find your inner peace, feeling the intense silence of the mountains and an area of rare pure beauty

This is the perfect tour for every season: whether during Summer or Winter, this region offers a vast variety of unforgettable features. In summer, a place where you can breathe the pure mountain air and walk through the numerous hiking trails. In winter, it becomes a totally white region: the snow is irresistible. The perfect place to ski or have fun on other snow sports.

During this tour, we will pass by Sabugueiro, a small shepherd village, in Seia. It is known for its natural resources, among which are the waterfalls and the views of a unique mountainous vegetation. The village is composed of rural houses, simple, granite, and typical of the region.

As a suggestion, you can visit the Bread Museum (with additional cost), also in Seia, one of the biggest bread museums in the world! Discover everything about the bread making process and the history of this rural region. This museum also presents different activities for children. A lovely place to visit with the entire family! 

Another stop is Celorico da Beira, an ancient village, full of history and tradition. This village has been denominated as the capital of Serra da Estrela Cheese, due to the quality and quantity of its production. There you will be able to visit the Solar de Queijo, a small museum of cheese. 

Visit the Tower, with 1.993 meters high, and discover incredible breathtaking views! Can you imagine standing in the highest point of Portugal and observing the mountain drops, while discovering the biodiversity of this area? At the top of the Tower, you will find a small Portuguese shop with local gastronomic products. The best-seller, of course, is the Serra da Estrela Cheese

Enjoy some free time to explore this area of extreme beauty as you wish.

Porto is waiting for you and this private tour ends at your hotel.

Great tour
As we've been told before the tour, the snow wasn't very predominant but it was great anyways, the guide jõao was very helpful and smart, he told us some stories about the place and the region. I feel like I ended this tour with so much information about Serra da estrela and their history, all in all it was great

So much snow!
We've been told that usually the conditions aren't the best. But we were very lucky and the guide said that it was perfect, as it was our first time seeing snow, we couldn't be more happy, specially my kids they were entertained for all the afternoon. we also had a taste of the traditional cheese that my husband loved by the way.

Great for small groups
Our friends recomended a visit to the serra da estrela in portugal, when we were planning the trip. we marked as a possible destination and then decide to try it. Because it is a full day trip and we were with our two daughters we decided to make it exclusive. Feeling more safe. Loved the snow panoramics of the mountain, the play on the snow with the kids, cozy village of Seia, and very interisting bread museum. Tip: everyone has to try the "montain cheese" with the typical bread of the region. Its so creamy. All went well and still today we talk about it on the table.
