Through the medieval streets of Óbidos
Bite-sized trip
Day 1 – Arrival in Óbidos
The walled medieval town of Óbidos is easily reached from the coastal town of Nazaré (30 minutes drive) and only a 1.5-hour drive from the capital city of Lisbon. From the moment you enter the city walls you will feel as if you have stepped back in time, with its narrow cobblestone streets. Óbidos is usually visited as a day trip, but it’s worth staying overnight so you can experience the town when the day trippers have left. You will stay in a recently renovated mid-range hotel in the heart of the town.
Day 2 – City stroll & Ginjinha tasting
Day 3 – Depart Óbidos
It’s now time to leave Óbidos. You may wish to stop by the Lagoa de Óbidos – a hang out for kite surfers, or the charming nearby town of Foz do Arelho before continuing your journey.
Accommodation
For this bite-sized trip we offer the following options
Overnight in a former convent
For a completely unique overnight experience we can arrange for you to stay in a former convent directly at the castle of Óbidos. Another unusual aspect to the hotel is that it has been designed with a literature theme, so you can expect books at every corner.
