Our final Setúbal video! We had such an amazing time here, and made plenty of videos showing our experiences! In case you missed it, here's the link to our very first Setubal video: ruclips.net/video/VB99avYnKpg/видео.html
There are some stunning churches in Setúbal, and we were fortunate to be able to visit these three. Thank you for watching, and for your lovely comment! ~ Mandy
Setúbal is such a lovely city, and there are some great value restaurants! We both loved Mineiro and think €9.90 for the weekday buffet lunch menu is an incredible bargain! We're so pleased you enjoyed these videos, and appreciate you taking the time to comment! 😃😁🙏 ~ Mandy
Thank you for your lovely comment, Caterina! We love this part of the world as well, and have had such an amazing time in beautiful Portugal. We loved our 3-week housesit in Setúbal, both for the animals and for having time to explore this wonderful city. Thank you so much for taking the time to write, and we're so happy to hear that you enjoy our videos! ~ Mandy
That's so wonderful to hear, Mandy! We loved Setúbal, which is why we ended up with 5 videos! Thank you so much for taking the time to comment, we really appreciate it! ~ Mandy 😀😁
@@FrugalTravellers I can tell you enjoyed this town. We just visited there in June and loved it! We’re looking to move to Setubal in 2025 so I keep watching your videos in the meantime:) You have a great name as well 😄
Amazing video. You make that town look so inviting! Your shots of that delicious looking buffet lunch made me soooo hungry. I would love to hop on that little green ferry and enjoy a nice boat ride to the other side. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment, Gar! Setúbal is a great city to visit, and editing the 5 videos made us hungry as well :)) We didn't take the ferry over to Troia, but it's on our list of things to do the next time we're in Setúbal! ~ Mandy
You are so lovely, Spark! This video is from last August, when we had our wonderful housesit in Setúbal... there are still at least 5 more Portugal videos to come! 🥳🎉🇵🇹❤ ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers Oh...Lol. !! I read it wrong !! I was thinking weird !! As you didn't say any like that in the previous video in Portugal !! LOLLOLLOL I was eating my dinner as watching it ,so maybe that was why I didn't realize !! It just autoplayed the video !! So...,my bad ! Sorry !! Lol.Looking forward for those new ones to come !! 🤣😅👍👍🙏🏼😆💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️💞
Statues were really cool. Kind of remind me of gru from Despicable Me with the long pointed nose. Love that you show food prices with the exchange rate! I wish every day that my stomach was bigger too. And without gaining any weight 🤣
Thank you for your lovely comments! We're all about frugal travel, and want to share great bargains we find. We like to let people know the low prices as well 😃😁 I'm going to have to go back and find the Gru statue as I can't think of the one you meant! That's one of my dreams as well... to eat all day and not gain weight. Unfortunately that isn't going to happen, so I just need to keep walking everywhere 😁🤣 ~ Mandy
Most excellent video as ever, where you can nearly feel the sun ☀️ on your back and smell the smorgasbord of delicious food 🍱. Spied a shark 🦈 and some really good street art 😎👊 , waiting for your next big adventure
Thank you so much, revolt7 😃😁 You always write such great comments! There was some good street art in Setúbal but the best we've seen in Portugal was in Lisbon, down by the waterfront. I just wish I'd filmed more of it in Setúbal! ~ Mandy
@@GLITCHDADA I can imagine! Did you put any Lisbon street art up on your Instagram page? I think I put one post up, which is when we might have connected! ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers maybe was there 2017 was in France same time , bad news learned a valuable lesson never buy a cheap memory sandisc card which is corrupted got a few snaps on another card il dig out post up
@@GLITCHDADA Oh no! That's one of my biggest fears, losing my videos and photos... which is why I carry 3 hard drives, but really must get better at doing backups once a week! It'll be great to see your pics - I'm looking forward to them. Some of the best street art we've seen was in Warsaw, under a flyover. I think I started that video but can't remember if I finished it... like so many others 🤣 ~ Mandy
Hi Mandy and Lee...Sorry for the delay in my comment, been away from the internet for a while, just catching up on all my favourites you tubers including yourselves Really enjoyed this vlog, I find it amazing how cheaply you can dine out in Portugal! That's burger and chips prices across some pubs in the UK without the drinks.Looking forward to your northern Portugal videos, all the best Karen.
Hello Karen! It's always lovely to hear from you, and it's also lovely to hear that we are among your favourite RUclipsrs! I'm so pleased you enjoyed this video, the fifth and final from Setúbal. Lee thought 3 videos would be enough, but we had such a great time there that I wanted to share more with fellow frugal travellers! Porto was the city with the cheapest menus do dia that we've visited, but I think Setúbal was the best value! I think we'll find it difficult to eat out in other countries now, having been spoilt by such delicious and affordable menus here, with such tasty and fresh local ingredients! We're actually currently housesitting near Peniche, as the Setúbal videos are 3 months behind real time, but will be heading back to Oliveira do Hospital on the 30th November to housesit on the quinta for another 2 weeks. Lee has made a video of our quinta sit, to be published in 2 weeks, so please let us know what you think of that!! 😃😁 ~ Mandy
We're almost 3 months behind these videos in real life 😃 The best thing is that we're actually going back to the quinta to housesit for 2 weeks at the beginning of December 😃😁 Lee made a quinta housesitting video that will be published in 2 weeks, just before we arrive back there! 😃 ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers Ahh brilliant. Do you know, I am much less inspired to edit my footage once it’s the next day, day after or beyond? It’s like writing a diary at night for me - it gets all my thought in order and helps me to process my day. But they still need to be at that processing stage. Once that moment is gone it’s no where near as engaging for me. Funny innit?! 😆
@@PlanetImo Lee's similar to you in that respect... he keeps a diary and writes in it last thing every night, and always wants to publish videos in real time. I'm more messy in terms of having possessions and photos/videos strewn all over the place, so am happy to work on a video with footage taken yesterday or last year. That reminds me - I need to get cracking on my 2nd Lviv video, which will be more difficult as it was taken with my old Motorola G4 Plus and camera, but it will instantly transport me back to February 2020 and remind me of how much fun we had in that beautiful city! 😁😃 ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers Aww lovely. Do you have any difficulty getting it in order with more than one cam? I was fumbling around with that for ages until I fiddled around and found out I could bung all clips/photos in a project folder, change the view to ‘details’ (I’m working in windows) and then click ‘date’ to sort them into the order they were taken in (might need to do it twice in case it goes into reverse order). It takes into account the time as well as date, so as long as the devices are synchronised it works, other wise I have to move a few around manually. If I drag them straight onto my timeline in one lump they go on in the right order. If I drag it into the editing software folder in the editing software itself it doesn’t work because it defaults to alphabetic order. I don’t know if will be the same with your software but finding that out really sped me up. X
Parque do Bonfim is brilliant! We actually walked past it the first day we arrived, and kept meaning to go back, but left it right until the end! Next time we'll take Nadelina's advice and have a picnic there 😃😁 ~ Mandy
At the end of your blog, you show a picture of BSE wine. Although it stands for "Branco Seco Especial", we call it Bury Saint Edmunds (ie B.S.E ) - which is where we are from in the UK!! Missing our place in Lagos but loving your blogs - exciting new places to visit in the summer.
Oh, we love Lagos! No wonder you're missing your place there, as it must be such a wrench to leave it! We love your BSE renaming... and I'm so pleased you liked the photo as I added them at the end at the last minute, as really couldn't work out where to put them in the video! Neither of us have been to B.S.E so might have to put it on the list for when we return to the UK :)) There are so many amazing places to explore in Portugal, and I hope our videos are helpful to you on your travels around this beautiful country! ~ Mandy
Hi Mandy and Lee, thank you so much for sharing Setubal town and tips. I can’t wait to visit it in 2022. I think I heard Lee spoke Portuguese in one of the videos, I am impressed. I really enjoy all of your videos and I have learned so much from you.
Hello Sue, it's so lovely to hear from you! We're pleased you enjoyed these Setúbal videos as it really is a great city, and we hope you have as good a time there as we did! Yes, Lee has been studying Portuguese on the Duolingo app since September 2020, a month before we arrived in Porto. His Spanish is very good, which has helped him a lot but they're definitely not the same language, and he's had to learn the different pronunciation of letters such as D, T and J! Duolingo is Brazilian Portuguese, so that's also been a bit tricky, but it's such a great language app that he chose to stick with it, and also uses Memrise to learn the Portuguese pronunciation. I am so proud of his language learning skills and motivation... I wish I could be more like him but am too easily distracted by ebooks and Netflix 😁🤣 ~ Mandy
Absolutely blown away by your videos on setabul and can't wait to visit can I ask what pet sitting site you are on as I would like to consider it many thanks and best wishes for the future 🐕👍
Hello Alan. Thank you very much for your lovely comment! It's great to hear that you have enjoyed our Setúbal videos. We had such a wonderful time there, and would love to return someday! If you haven't already, please see our video in the link below for housesitting and petsitting information: ruclips.net/video/Gdmx6tYvu8Y/видео.html Thank you for taking the time to comment, and we hope you enjoy Setúbal as much as we did! ~ Mandy 😀😁
Hi Guys, this video was wonderful. That church looked incredible, I loved those coloured cobbled stones in the street too. Your meal sounded very lovely 😉😊
Thank you so much for your kind comments... you guys are so lovely! Setúbal was such a great place to visit, and we'd go back there in a flash, and would definitely go back to the same restaurants! 😃😁 ~ Mandy
If all goes perfectly, we have 51 days until our move to Lisbon. Setúbal look fantastic. I was just checking out the bus schedule and pricing from Oriente. I think we will be making a visit for a couple days in March and April. Thanks for the tips on the restaurants as they are greatly appreciated. In September we went to the all you can eat Asia Tokyo restaurant in Portimão and it was just as good as your review. Thanks a bunch!
It is so exciting to hear about your move to Lisbon, Todd... it is such a great city in a wonderful country! I hope you enjoy Setúbal as much as we did, especially the great restaurants! It's so cool that you went to Asia Tokyo in Praia da Rocha - I still dream about their food sometimes as it was just so delicious! Thank you for your lovely comment, and we look forward to hearing about your new life in Portugal! ~ Mandy
Hi Todd. Lee here. If you are looking at different options to travel to Setúbal from Lisbon, check out our next video next week which shows taking the train from Setúbal to Sete Ríos station in Lisbon. It's about the same price, €4.55, but slightly faster and a nice journey. All depends on which part of Lisbon you are travelling from. Good luck with the move and all the best. 👍
Thank you, that's so kind! We had such a wonderful time in Setúbal that we wanted to share as much as possible with everyone, and we're really pleased you enjoyed this fifth and final Setúbal vlog! ~ Mandy
That's so kind of you, Outlawes! We're so pleased you enjoyed the video and are happy you found our channel! Thank you for taking the time to comment 😃😁 ~ Mandy
Thank you for the 5 Setubal video: I see that you get to "Convento de Jesus" and visit the amazing church. I wish you a nice stay in Serra da Estrela.If you need some tip about this region, I can help. Cheers
We really appreciate all of your wonderful comments, Luis - it is so lovely to hear such positive feedback from a local! The Convento de Jesus was stunning, as was the service at the Igreja de Santa Maria da Graça. Setúbal is such an amazing city - I hope we can return soon! 😃😁 ~ Mandy
Luis, thank you for offering recommendations for Serra da Estrela! We were housesitting there in September, and will be going back to the quinta to housesit again in December! Lee has made a quinta housesit video, which will be posted in a couple of weeks. It will be great to hear your recommendations as we'll be near Oliveira do Hospital for 2 weeks! ~ Mandy
It's a great city, with so much to see and do... I just wish I'd captured more of the street art! It was difficult not to feel hungry making these videos, as the restaurants we went to in Setúbal were such excellent value, with such delicious food! Thank you, Jay & Jon, for your lovely comment! ~ Mandy
Thank you for your great suggestion! We didn't make it to Troia this time as we were looking after a 16-year dog, but we'll definitely get the boat over the next time we're in Setúbal! ~ Mandy
That's so wonderful, Julie! We loved Setúbal, and would return in a flash. It's such an amazing place, and we still dream of those restaurants and that panaderia! 😀😁 ~ Mandy
You're a pro at the one-handed hand wash shot, and watching you do it in your daily vlogs inspired me to try and film it... not with the same proficiency, but I think it was an ok first attempt 😁😃 ~ Mandy
@@PlanetImo Hahhha... is that the secret to your professional shots? 🤣 What if there isn't a table nearby, as was the case in the Convento de Jesus? I'm going to work on that one-handed camera capture, as it will be so useful if I make another 2-minute noodle cooking video, like the one we made in Krakow last year 😁🤣 ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers I have mine on a sort of hinged clip mount most of the time lately and always have a bag with a shoulder strap so I can clip it to myself or may bag to get a more POV hands free shot. I don’t do it often.
Hi Mandy & Lee, absolutely loved your Setubal videos, and will be visiting there again on our next visit to Portugal to discover some of the places you have shared. Those buffets are amazing, funny I have never seen that chain before, but will be keeping a keen eye out for them next time as well. I'm sure you are somewhere amazing in Serra de Estrella, my favorite place there is Loriga - amazing food in the restaurant on the main road, but if you dont have any transport i guess it will be hard to get around. Can't wait for next video! Are you going to start looking for somewhere warmer to spend the winter?
Hello Cindy! It's always lovely to hear from you, and thank you for your wonderful comment! We're pleased you enjoyed the Setúbal videos, especially as you've been there before so already knew many of the places! Mineiro was an absolutely brilliant find, a view shared by locals as it was always busy! The weekend menu doesn't include a drink, dessert and coffee, so make sure you go during the week, and please let us know what you think! We were so lucky to stumble across Mar Azul 2, as even though @Travel with Nadelina had recommended it to us, we'd hadn't marked it on the map, so it was serendipity that we came across it! This restaurant still has the same €9 menu on the weekends, making it a great option, especially with your Baba de Camelo ! This video was from August, so is approximately 3 months behind real time. We were housesitting on an offgrid quinta in Oliveira do Hospital, and Lee made a video of our experience, which will be published in 2 weeks. The great thing is that we're actually heading back to the quinta after our 5 days in Nazaré, and will be able to explore more of the Serra da Estrela, weather permitting! Hopefully we'll make it to Logria - if so, I'll video everything! We have a housesit in Alcobaça over Christmas, which will be lovely as it's 3 cats and a dog. We have a month off housesitting in January so are thinking about heading back to Portimão and seeing some familiar faces and great beaches! Thank you for your support and your great advice... only 11 days to go until we're in Nazaré! ~ Mandy
Oh, that is so lovely to hear! Lee thought we had enough footage for maybe 3 Setúbal videos, but I love that city so much that I had to make five! I hope you have a wonderful time there next spring! 😃😁 ~ Mandy
😍 I miss it already. Great you’ve been able to attend the church service. Convent do Jesus is so beautiful they renovated it very well. Parque do Bomfin is such a good place, we enjoy walking and picnicking there. See you in your next location.
Isn't Setúbal such a wonderful city! I really hope we can see you again there someday...it would be fun exploring the sights with you and IH 😁😃 Did you ever visit the convent before the restoration work? We loved the Parque do Bonfim and I can imagine it would be a lovely place to have a picnic! ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers definitely ! And with IH too 😂.. No I have not visited before it was restored. I just saw it when it was still in work and I saw it finished.

The art around there is gorgeous! And those buffet lunches - yum! 😋
It's a great city, with so much to see and do... I just wish I'd captured more of the street art! It was difficult not to feel hungry making these videos, as the restaurants we went to in Setúbal were such excellent value, with such delicious food! Thank you, Jay & Jon, for your lovely comment! ~ Mandy
Try to go visit Troy Island, you can go by boat in the Port of Setúbal
Thank you for your great suggestion! We didn't make it to Troia this time as we were looking after a 16-year dog, but we'll definitely get the boat over the next time we're in Setúbal! ~ Mandy
I’ve just been rewatching your Setubal videos ! They have reminded me of all the things I love about Setubal ! Thank you 🥰 Julie
That's so wonderful, Julie! We loved Setúbal, and would return in a flash. It's such an amazing place, and we still dream of those restaurants and that panaderia! 😀😁 ~ Mandy
Ahhh the one handed attempt at hand sanitising with the GoPro in the other hand!
You're a pro at the one-handed hand wash shot, and watching you do it in your daily vlogs inspired me to try and film it... not with the same proficiency, but I think it was an ok first attempt 😁😃 ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers Hee hee hee! I’m rubbish at it. I find it best to put the camera down and film doing it with two hands.
@@PlanetImo Hahhha... is that the secret to your professional shots? 🤣 What if there isn't a table nearby, as was the case in the Convento de Jesus? I'm going to work on that one-handed camera capture, as it will be so useful if I make another 2-minute noodle cooking video, like the one we made in Krakow last year 😁🤣 ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers I have mine on a sort of hinged clip mount most of the time lately and always have a bag with a shoulder strap so I can clip it to myself or may bag to get a more POV hands free shot. I don’t do it often.
Hi Mandy & Lee, absolutely loved your Setubal videos, and will be visiting there again on our next visit to Portugal to discover some of the places you have shared. Those buffets are amazing, funny I have never seen that chain before, but will be keeping a keen eye out for them next time as well.
I'm sure you are somewhere amazing in Serra de Estrella, my favorite place there is Loriga - amazing food in the restaurant on the main road, but if you dont have any transport i guess it will be hard to get around. Can't wait for next video!
Are you going to start looking for somewhere warmer to spend the winter?
Hello Cindy! It's always lovely to hear from you, and thank you for your wonderful comment! We're pleased you enjoyed the Setúbal videos, especially as you've been there before so already knew many of the places!
Mineiro was an absolutely brilliant find, a view shared by locals as it was always busy! The weekend menu doesn't include a drink, dessert and coffee, so make sure you go during the week, and please let us know what you think!
We were so lucky to stumble across Mar Azul 2, as even though @Travel with Nadelina had recommended it to us, we'd hadn't marked it on the map, so it was serendipity that we came across it! This restaurant still has the same €9 menu on the weekends, making it a great option, especially with your Baba de Camelo !
This video was from August, so is approximately 3 months behind real time. We were housesitting on an offgrid quinta in Oliveira do Hospital, and Lee made a video of our experience, which will be published in 2 weeks. The great thing is that we're actually heading back to the quinta after our 5 days in Nazaré, and will be able to explore more of the Serra da Estrela, weather permitting! Hopefully we'll make it to Logria - if so, I'll video everything!
We have a housesit in Alcobaça over Christmas, which will be lovely as it's 3 cats and a dog. We have a month off housesitting in January so are thinking about heading back to Portimão and seeing some familiar faces and great beaches! Thank you for your support and your great advice... only 11 days to go until we're in Nazaré! ~ Mandy
Igreija de Santa Maria is the Cathedral of Setubal
It is so beautiful. We love the architecture. 😍
Thanks for the 5 Setubal videos. You've made planning my trip there next spring so easy😊
Oh, that is so lovely to hear! Lee thought we had enough footage for maybe 3 Setúbal videos, but I love that city so much that I had to make five! I hope you have a wonderful time there next spring! 😃😁 ~ Mandy
😍 I miss it already. Great you’ve been able to attend the church service. Convent do Jesus is so beautiful they renovated it very well. Parque do Bomfin is such a good place, we enjoy walking and picnicking there. See you in your next location.
Isn't Setúbal such a wonderful city! I really hope we can see you again there someday...it would be fun exploring the sights with you and IH 😁😃 Did you ever visit the convent before the restoration work? We loved the Parque do Bonfim and I can imagine it would be a lovely place to have a picnic! ~ Mandy
@@FrugalTravellers definitely ! And with IH too 😂.. No I have not visited before it was restored. I just saw it when it was still in work and I saw it finished.
What camera do you using for your video? 🤣
Check out this video to find out!

Thank you! ~ Mandy 😁😀
The Convent De Jesus is where was signed the Treaty of Tordesilhas.

Thanks 🙏 I find that period of maritime history so interesting. I didn't know it was signed there. 👍
