Estao a comprar tudo em Portugal, porque tem mais dinheiro, enquanto os portugueses mal sobrevivem com as esmolas dos ordenados minimos ou subsidios do governo socialista, que fica com quase todo o dinheiro do pagador de impostos, nuncaa sequer conseguindo comprar ou construir um sitio para viver.
@@RyanShirley I'm from up town Lisbon. Down town is one of my favorite places to go, is full of history and beautiful views, hope you enjoyed your time there. If you are to visit us again, which you're most welcome, try to go to the Chapel of Bones at Church of St. Francis (Capela dos Ossos da Igrega de São Francisco) in Évora and Archeaological Park of Côa Valley (Parque Arqueológico do Vale do Côa) in Guarda; those are great sites to add to your beautiful collection
I have been living in portugal a year and I remember this time as a stunning long-lasted journey! So beautiful country and so friendly people! Portugal, I love you!
Favorite places in Portugal, not mentioned: Aveiro, Luso, Braga, Marvão, Évora, Lamego, Guarda, Viseu, Mira Daire, Sortelha, Viana do Castelo, and there's so much more to say about Lisbon.
@@RyanShirley Also, Sintra has quite a few more awesome places: Capela da Peninha, Palácio de Sintra, Monserrate, etc. And of course there are the Mosteiro de Alcobaça, Mosteiro da Batalha, Palácio de Mafra, Palácio de Queluz...and many many other places worth seeing!
@@RyanShirley You really do! Adding up to Luis comment - Bragança, Miranda do Douro, Trancoso, Figueira de Castelo Rodrigo, Castro Daire, Penacova, Caminha, Monção, Parque Natural Montesinho, Serra da Lousã and it's schist villages, São Pedro de Moel, Costa Vicentina, pff, impossible to name them all. Probably part 2 and 3 😁
Just visited Portugal and i have to agree it is one of the most beautiful countries i have been to and i have visited Italy, Croatia, Iceland and Scotland among others.
Had to watch this, went to Lisbon and Troia in '88. The castles on the mountains were so amazing.. the seafood was great..the people are friendly and the prices are low!
I spent a couple weeks there in September. We did Porto, Tomar, Obidos, Lisbon, Sintra, Albufeira and Lagos. I LOVED Portugal. Beautiful country and warm friendly people.
That’s amazing. I’m going to porto, Tomar to see the Knights of the Templars castles, and Fatima Any suggestions from you? I’d appreciate it. Thank you, 🇨🇦
@@RyanShirley We were based in Lisbon, so we didn't see the south or any of the islands. But we managed to go to some of the horns on the coastline, incl. Cabo de Roca, those were spectacular, and it was my dream to see the Atlantic Ocean (sadly I didn't swim, it was a bit too cold 😀). I also enjoyed Sintra (it has such a fairy tale quality) and Porto - ever since I've been obsessed with the idea of going back to Porto and also exploring the north of Portugal. And the food was amazing!
When my dad wondered, where to go on summer holidays, he showed a Portugese island called Madeira. When I saw it, then I started to love Nature of Portugal. Portugal has beautifull islands and now, my dream is to going, to Madeira in Portugal :)
I love Portugal so much. Monsanto is beautiful. Benagil cave is breathtaking and berlenga too. The people are so nice and the cost of living is cheap. Next time I'll go to the Açores
We were there October 8-15 touring Lisbon, Sintras, Obidos,Nazare,Fatima,Azehas do Mar,Cabo da Roca and Setubal and my favorite was Nazare. Portugal is such beautiful country, the food and people are amazing. Thanks for sharing other parts of Portugal that we didn’t have time to visit.
@@RyanShirley It is definitely the Algarve region, specifically Lagos. As you mentioned the coast is just beautiful. I have never seen anything like that. Great top 25 man!!
@@RyanShirley Mmm... it's hard to decide! I love particularly Lisbon, Sintra, Obidos, Cabo da Roca, Flores and Sao Miguel (Azores) and in December we have been in Madeira for the first time, and I found this island so so beautiful... a lot of water, trees, wonderful trials (levadas), a nice weather... a true paradise! We are lucky because we live in Italy, so for us it's easy to reach Portugal in a few hours! 😃
Just got back from 2 weeks in Portugal! Truly amazing place. saw half of your list and a few others not on you list. my favorite, ...the Alfama neighborhood. Amazing culture, food, sites and people. definitely returning soon for more!
We`ve visited Lisbon and the area around it and was a wonderful experience. Nice people and a beautiful country. I would like to visit another places there.
Im from Portugal and these are my recomendations: Beaches: Praia da Rocha, Albufeira and Serra da Arrábida Cities: Oporto/Porto (SO BEAUTIFUL !!!!) Best destinations (regions): Madeira, Algarve, Porto, Lisboa and Braga
It is obvious that you didnt go to many places in the interior of Portugal. You have impressive places to visit. To name a few so that you can go next time: Monsanto, Mertola, Monsaraz, Evora, Piodao, Talasnal, Castelo de Vide, Marvao or the villages of Montesinho.
Don't forget, in the northern centre of Portugal, the cities of Aveiro and Viseu. At Aveiro, the Portuguese Venice, you have: beautiful and colourful boats, named moliceiros; beautiful water channels; the ovos moles, a tasteful convent sweet; a small but fine museum; beautiful and coloured houses, in the city and at the beach of Costa Nova do Prado. At Viseu, the center of the city is very beautiful, namely the Museum of Grão-Vasco and the ancient medieval perimeter. Don't forget to visit the villages of Vouzela, Monsanto, Piódão, and Castelo Rodrigo all in the mountains of the center of Portugal and the Bussaco Palace, between Aveiro and Coimbra.
You forgot talking about Aveiro, a city between Porto and Coimbra, by the sea. A drone footage of Ria de Aveiro, the natural lagoon, would be awesome. Thanks!
@@RyanShirley I forgot to say that in addition to Aveiro we have interesting places to visit near Aveiro such as Bussaco. It is a national forest with very beautiful green vegetation, where in the past Napoleon's French invading troops fought an important battle against Portuguese and English troops (our allies). Congratulations for the video that is very good, better than many videos from our Turismo de Portugal. 😃
That was a very thorough tour of a very beautiful place with lots of great drone footage - drones have really changed travel videos. The Azores are so green, I'm sorry I never even thought of going there. Coimbra looked very quiet and the university looked deserted - when school is in session it's a noisy party town. Glad you mentioned Portugal was once Roman - there are some temple ruins in Evora and an intact Roman bridge in Chaves. Glad you got some cliff diving in - that's one of your signature moves.
Thanks so much John! They really are a game changer. I don't think I've seen anywhere more green than the Azores. I need to visit Evora and Chaves next time I go. All the best 😁
I don't like the idea of drones buzzing above me, but you DO have a point there - strange that the natural beauty of a very old country should only be revealed to the world by a Control device...
É o meu lindo Portugal , faltou a região de Trás dos Montes e Alentejo com as suas fantásticas paisagens e planícies , a costa Vicentina ...etc , tantos lugares cheios de história e beleza , é Portugal 😍
@@RyanShirley so how can you make a top if you were not even in Alentejo? Actually you were not in lots of places, which reflects in putting Tomar and Obidos in a Top, where you have plenty of spots more interesting then those, mostly in the north where the origin of Portugal is, and that you barely mentioned. Fortress of Valença which puts Obidos in a pocket, for several reasons... the historical city of Braga, the view of Santa Luzia in Viana do Castelo. Cities like Evora in the Alentejo, or Bragança in Tras os Montes.. The beautiful city of channels - Aveiro... could mention much more. I mean I got the point, but if you want to do a top you have to be sincere with yourself and the others.
And much more....Viana do Castelo, Aveiro, Vila Real, Bragança, Guarda, Viseu, Castelo Branco, Setúbal, Portalegre, Évora, Beja, Faro, Santarém, Horta, Angra do Heroísmo, Mafra ' s Palace in Lisbon, etc, etc!🇵🇹👍🏻
@@RyanShirley You put st Miguel island and pico island , but are other spetacular islands to see like st jorge , FAIAL , Corvo , st Maria, Terceira, Graciosa
Thanks Ryan for sharing this awesome Portugal video. Amazing landscape and the view is just breathtaking! Love the beach with the rock formation, Azores and ... Bengali cave 😍
What an amazing video and also an awesome experience. Thanks for sharing with us my bro! I'm living in Portugal and I'm gonna visit those places for sure! Hugs from Algarve
Ryan, your footage is absolutely amazing! Wow!! Saw your top 10 video first and now your top 25. If you visit Portugal once more, take in consideration also these places: 1. Braga and the Bom Jesus church with its water moved funicular (elevator) 2. Valença with it's XVII fortress and commercial inner town 3. Viana do Castelo with it's iconic view of Sta. Luzia hill 4. Paiva Walkways with the stunning walking bridge 5. Religious city of Lamego 6. Historic schist village of Piódão 7. Batalha Monastery with its Gothic-Manuelin arquitecture style at its peak 8. Fish town of Ericeira and close by Palace and Monastery of Mafra with its unique bell carillons 9. Alentejo - you really have to go to this region: Évora, city-fortress of Elvas, small castle village of Monsaraz similar to Óbidos, same for Marvão or Castelo de Vide 10. In the Algarve, to me the best is Sagres and the St. Vincent cape in the west and the city of Tavira in the east. The old city of Faro and the surrounding isles in the very south of Portugal might also be a hidden gem. 11. Madeira - Ponta de S. Lourenço - you loved Pico do Arieiro, but in the very east of Madeira is also a great place to make amazing footage and you'll be probably alone This is what the small rectangle in the west corner of Europe has to offer with so many differences from the northern mountain granite built towns to southern plain whitewash colored simple houses, some having moorish chimneys.
Congratulations on your beautiful videos of Portugal,It was a pleasure to see the Azores, and Madeira,I was lucky to visit most of those places,born in the Azores,and living in Canadá another wonderful country.
Nice vídeo, nice places. You still have so, so much to see. You missed a lot of beautifull North cities, near the coast like Viana do Castelo or Caminha, at interior like Bragança or Lamego. For sure must go to Azibo "lake". Aveiro, São Martinho do Porto, Arrábida, Foz do Arelho and Peniche others place to visit. You missed also Alentejo, coast or even interior, like Vila Nova de Mil Fontes, Évora or Beja. At Algarve you must the beaches from Faro to interior, like Fuzeta, Tavira or Cancelha Velha. This only to name some places, are still more to list. This 25 top list, will turn on 100 top! So, schedule a new visit, but for let's say, half a year! 😉
Great works! Especially filming is absolutely top notch. Thanks for sharing! How about Alentejo area like Reguengos and Mosaraz… Evora… food and views are amazing too… looking forward to watching more 😊
Thank you Ryan. It was quite wonderful to see someone explore my country better that I ever did :) Very proud of this video and hopefully you come back to Portugal
Amazing vídeo thanks for sharing! One small correction if I may, it's Benagil Cave not Bengali 😋 awesome views of this beautiful country where I've been living for quite some time !
Well, you asked for it: From North to South the must see: Moncao- Valenca-Viana do Castelo & Santa Luzia. Braga-Amarante- Senhora da Graca- Braganca-Chaves- Vila Real-Lamego- Viseu-Guarda-Belmonte-Sortelha-Covilha-Monsanto-Penacova-Bucaco-Batalha-Alcobaca-Praia do Baleal North & South- Dornes- Ferreira do Zezere- Almourol-Marvao- Castelo de Vide- Portalegre-Elvas-Estremoz-Evora-Serpa-Reguengos de Monsaraz-Beja- Santarem-Mafra-Cascais- Estoril-Lagoa de Albufeira-Sesimbra-Portinho da Arrabida-Palmela-Setubal & Troia-Porto Covo-Sines- Vila Nova de Milfontes-Zambujeira do Mar-Praia de Odeceixe-Praia da Arrifana-Praia da Bordeira-
Incredible footage, and helpful info. Thank you Ryan. How long did you spend in Portugal? I’m planning a trip for 2023 and just want an idea of how long I need to set aside for my trip to get to each of these beautiful places.
What a well made video and some excellent narration. Nice to see some spots being highlighted that aren’t usually covered in travel videos! Thank you so much! ❤
Another beautiful video! Cassandra Overby, author of Explore Europe on Foot, recommends Rota Vincentina on the Southwest coast for 4 day hike. Hopefully I can do that and include some of the places you mention.
Yes that part of Portugal, Costa Vicentina, is one of the most beautiful for sure highly recommended 👍 one of the most beautiful sunset views in the world
@@RyanShirley here as we speak, it’s been a week now, one more to go, we have our 8 year old with us so hiking is limited. So far, Oporto, Gaia, bits of Lisboa, Coimbra, Fig da Foz and Aveiro. Going to Algarve beaches Tuesday.
Amazing video Ryan! You've given me some ideas of places to visit which I didn't even know were so beautiful, even though I am Portuguese. It is a magical country indeed :)
@@RyanShirley located 25km away from Porto and got to know most of the places your said already. Added some to my list. Thank you so much for your work Ryan.
The best comprehensive video about Portugal! Congratulations 👏🥂 just one small correction, in the Algarve the famous cave is not called Bengali cave, it's Benagil! 😃
As a portuguese, I am very proud of this video. You captured some of the most beautiful landscapes around here. Thank you for sharing with the world.
Thanks so much Ana! What part of Portugal are you from?
@@RyanShirley be careful anyway, feeling of security can be deceitful. I was born in what they call portugal and little is known for being a french creation and later to become a US colony.

So, schedule a new visit, but for let's say, half a year! 😉
Im brazzilian and i love Portugal because Brazil was built by Portuguese ppl, their culture looks like ours, although their architecture is perfect.
Great works! Especially filming is absolutely top notch. Thanks for sharing! How about Alentejo area like Reguengos and Mosaraz… Evora… food and views are amazing too… looking forward to watching more 😊
Thanks so much Bowen! I need to explore Alentejo next time I visit! Sounds amazing :)

Incredible footage, and helpful info. Thank you Ryan. How long did you spend in Portugal? I’m planning a trip for 2023 and just want an idea of how long I need to set aside for my trip to get to each of these beautiful places.
I’d say at least a month if you want to visit all of them, or if you just want to visit a de of them you could set aside one or two weeks
I think Batalha deserves a mention. Its scale is amazing
Just looked it up and its huge, I'd love to visit!
Thank you very much!Very interestingly!
Thanks so much Olga!

What a well made video and some excellent narration. Nice to see some spots being highlighted that aren’t usually covered in travel videos! Thank you so much! ❤
Another beautiful video! Cassandra Overby, author of Explore Europe on Foot, recommends Rota Vincentina on the Southwest coast for 4 day hike. Hopefully I can do that and include some of the places you mention.
