Activity options vary depending on destination and operator. Activity level is determined by the range and intensity of activities you choose to participate in. Discuss with your Trip Planner which options are best for you.
Discover Lisbon, a legendary metropolis boasting over 20 centuries of history and serving as Portugal’s capital since its conquest from the Moors in 1147. Explore the city as it spans the right bank of the Tagus River, centered on the Baixa, an 18th-century downtown district surrounding Rossio. Wander the winding streets of the Alfama, one of the oldest quarters, which largely survived the 1755 earthquake to retain its original, ancient layout.
Explore Portimao, the largest city in the western Algarve and a historic center for sardine fishing and processing. Utilize this coastal hub as an ideal base for discovering the surrounding region, including the popular destinations of Lagos and Silves. Uncover the legacy of Portugal’s 14th-century Age of Exploration in Lagos, or wander through Silves, the Algarve’s ancient capital, to witness attractions reflecting its extensive heritage.
Tangier was the real model for the famous American film 'Casablanca' with Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. It still retains its faded mongrel charm - not entirely Moroccan, European or African but a heady mix of all three.
Gibraltar is a British Overseas Territory and headland, on Spain's south coast. It's dominated by the Rock of Gibraltar, a 426m-high limestone ridge. The Cable Car is one of the ways to the Top of the Rock and a must-see attraction for all visitors to Gibraltar. The view is spectacular and you can watch the famous monkeys of Gibraltar. A lesser known wildlife attraction are the dolphins leaping in the sparkling waters of Gibraltar Bay, whole families of dolphins visit the bay and the chances of seeing them are good.
Located on the Costa del Sol of southeast Spain, Puerto Banus is a beautiful Mediterranean playground of white-washed buildings and a marina filled with yachts. The marina was developed in 1970 and over the past four decades has become adored by jet-setters around the globe for its beauty and simplicity. Famous for its prominent visitors, nightlife and luxury boutiques, this Jewel of the Costa del Sol is very much the place to see and be seen.

This was my first experience with Adventure Life - and I couldn't have been more pleased with the trip. The guides and local staff in both Buenos Aires and Uruguay were terrific - extremely helpful and accommodating. I really enjoyed meeting the friendly staff in Buenos Aires in person (I left my bags with them for the afternoon).
