Overview
From learning about Port with a Knight of the Port Wine Brotherhood, to savoring a farm-to-table meal on an organic farm on Madeira Island, Patamar Select offers highly personalized, locally infused experiences throughout Portugal.
Since 2005, Patamar Select has steeped itself in the regions they represent on the Iberian Peninsula. Engaging, knowledgeable guides, exceptional lodging, authentic experiences, and outstanding food and wine result in personally crafted, life-changing trips that inspire travelers to learn and love their Portugal. Discerning travelers may find themselves visiting medieval villages and harvesting grapes at a local vineyard, in the midst of a hands-on cooking lesson with the Viscountess, horseback riding in Alentejo, or attending a signature sommelier session in Lisbon. Consistent exemplary reviews from past travelers and recognition within the upscale, luxury travel community speak to the dedication Patamar Select gives to nurturing relationships, making every moment count, and uncovering the very best of the region they love.

Portugal
Comfortable shoes for cobbled streets and coastal walks, a reusable water bottle, sunscreen and a light layer for cooler evenings. Bring a swimsuit and a small day bag for beach days, plus something a little nicer for long lunches and evenings out. And, most importantly, leave a little room in your suitcase for local treasures such as Portuguese ceramics, textiles, olive oil, wine, and other beautiful discoveries you’ll want to bring home.
Spring and Fall are generally the very best times to visit Portugal.
Patamar Select profoundly believes in supporting the local economy and culture. Their staff is primarily composed of Portuguese women, and our suppliers are mainly small local companies that equally value exceptional service. Patamar Select owns a natural wine shop that supports over 120 small Portuguese producers whom they have visited and hosted to forge friendships and align common values. This ensures that they can offer their clients authentic experiences that match their specific needs and wants.
Portugal is our home, and we want to take care of it. At Patamar Select, we believe travel should support the people, places, and traditions that make our country special. We are currently pursuing B Corp certification as part of our commitment to continually improving the way we operate and the impact we have. We work closely with small producers, local businesses, and independent partners, and through our organic wine shop, we champion producers who share our values. For our agent partners, this means creating thoughtful, authentic experiences that give back to the communities and landscapes we are proud to call home.
