Prices are indicative, shown in AUD and refreshed from provider APIs where available. Always confirm the final price on the provider's site - it is the price that applies. We may earn a commission if you buy through our links, which never changes what you pay. A row labelled "Featured partner" holds a paid position at the top of the table. Partners are listed before providers who pay us nothing, as our terms set out; sorting by price ignores all of that and orders on the number alone. How we make money.

Planning what to do in Portugal

When is the best time to visit Portugal?

April-June and September-October

The Algarve is a summer destination; Lisbon and Porto are better in shoulder season when the queues are shorter and it is not 38C on a cobbled hill.

How these comparisons are made

Activities listed are bookable in AUD with instant confirmation where the platform offers it. Jamie has personally booked and taken activities through the platforms recommended on this site. Editorial notes on whether something is worth pre-booking are opinions and labelled as such - a queue-skip that saves three hours in July can be pointless in February.
