LAPA PALACE, LISBON

‘ENCHANTED PORT’

At hand you have glorious sub-tropical gardens, a palatial spa and pool with inviting sun decks. At your feet, the Tagus River and the city of Lisbon.

Palace is a good description of this beautiful, 19th century hotel. Ultimately luxurious, it stands aloof in the prestigious diplomatic quarter, high on a hill overlooking the Tagus and the fascinating city of Lisbon.

Walk into the Palace gardens and you’ll be surrounded by fragrant flowers, shady palms and indigenous trees. Streams tinkle in the background whilst fountains twinkle in the sunlight.

Venture a little further afield and you can quickly find yourself in the city that legend says was founded by Ulysses. Its name actually comes from the Phoenician for ‘enchanted port’. That’s very apt; Lisbon is a potpourri of florid architectural styles, ancient churches and modern buildings, winding lanes and market squares, galleries and museums, quiet culture and sizzling nightlife.

“FAULTLESS AND FUN”
We’ve just returned from a Danube cruise with Douglas Skeggs and Joanna Worsley, with a few days in Vienna beforehand – all brilliantly overseen by Emily. From meet and greet at the airport to every detail on board the Amadeus Cara, the organisation was seamless. We’re already looking forward to our next Escorted Tour with The Ultimate Travel Company.

“EVERY TRIP EXCELLENT – AND MORE TO COME”
I’ve been on several small group holidays with The Ultimate Travel Company and every one has been outstanding. My most recent trip in February was no exception – expertly organised, responsive to questions, and full of memorable experiences. The itineraries are well thought out, the hotels top-notch, and the group sizes just right. Their tour leaders are knowledgeable, supportive and great company. I haven’t looked elsewhere since discovering Ultimate – and I’m already planning my next.

“INDIA AT ITS MOST INCREDIBLE”
Unbelievably brilliant from start to finish. The Ultimate Travel Company gave us complete flexibility while tailoring the trip to our personal preferences. Communication was excellent throughout, and the in-country team in India was super-efficient at every stage. The quality of the experience was exceptional – and the value for money, remarkable. From expert naturalists to thrilling wildlife encounters (tigers, leopards, 140 species of birds), awe-inspiring temples, the Taj Mahal, scenic walks and warm, welcoming people – not to mention the fantastic curry – it was a truly superb holiday. “Ultimate” really is “The Ultimate Travel Company”!
