The Lisbon day-trip everyone leaves happiest with: Sintra's UNESCO palaces, the initiation well of Regaleira, the cliffs of Cabo da Roca and cocktails on the Cascais bay before returning at sunset.
The full Douro classic: two working port quintas with tastings, a scenic Douro river cruise between Régua and Pinhão, and a long lunch at a family-run winery with river views.
The most-booked Algarve boat tour: a fast catamaran along the Benagil cliffs, into the famous cathedral cave and past the double arches of Praia da Marinha with dolphin spotting on the way back.
The easiest way to see the Lisbon hills without walking them. A private tuk-tuk winds through Alfama, up to São Jorge castle, out to Belém for the monastery and pastéis, and back along the Tagus.
Three of central Portugal's biggest hits in one small-group day: the Fátima sanctuary, Nazaré's cliffs (home of the 30-metre wave) and the medieval walled village of Óbidos with a ginjinha in a chocolate cup.
The two things everyone comes to Madeira for in one day: a sunrise 4x4 to the top of Pico do Arieiro (1,818 m) and a guided levada walk through the UNESCO Laurisilva laurel forest.
A walking tasting tour through Alfama and Mouraria with six food stops (bacalhau, tremoços, ginjinha, pastéis, tinned fish, queijo da Serra) that ends in an intimate fado house where the neighbours still sing.
The island in a day: 4x4 into the Sete Cidades caldera for the blue-and-green lakes, then Furnas for the geothermal park and the cozido cooked underground on volcanic steam.
