Plan your Portugal road trip

This guide isn’t for everyone. If you enjoy spending hours digging online to find every location yourself, then this probably isn’t what you need: so don’t buy it.

But if you’ve watched our video and want a clean, well-organized overview with all the best spots, ready-to-use GPX files, and detailed notes from our trip, this is made for you. All the info is out there on the web already, this guide is about saving you time and supporting our adventure a little bit.

This isn’t a map of every possible route in Portugal. It’s our personal Portugal Overland Itinerary, created after three weeks of exploring, mapping, and testing every place ourselves.

We’ve taken the detours, checked the views, and documented everything so you don’t have to.

How to Use our Portugal overland itinerary + GPX Files

We designed this itinerary to reflect the routes as seen in our video.
Here’s how it works:

  • Open the interactive PDF on your phone or tablet
  • Load the GPX files into apps like Gaia GPS, Maps.me, or Garmin
