Welcome

​

Welcome to Portugal Vegan Tours — your plant‑based gateway to discovering Portugal in a meaningful, sustainable, and joyfully vegan way. We believe that your values don’t need to be left behind when you travel — they can lead the way. Whether you’re a seasoned vegan explorer or someone curious about travelling more consciously, we’re here to help you experience Portugal without compromise.

 

What Sets Us Apart

​

• Deep Local Insight: Having worked in Portuguese tourism myself, I bring the insider knowledge of hidden gems, local producers, community stories and vegan‑friendly spots to every itinerary

• Small Groups, Shared Ideals: Unlike larger tours, we keep our groups small and composed of people who share vegan values and a desire for responsible travel.

• Vegan‑First Approach: We don’t adapt a general tour to vegan guests — we build the tour from the ground up with plant‑based meals and mindful practices at its heart..

• Your Values, Your Journey: Whether you’re a fully committed vegan or exploring plant‑based travel for the first time, our tours are open, inclusive and designed for people who care about the planet, the plate and the people.

​

Why We Do It

​

• Authentic Connections: We travel in small groups so you can truly connect with your fellow travellers, your hosts, the local culture and the land.

• Plant‑Powered Cuisine: Every journey features carefully curated plant‑based meals — from local vegan‑friendly cafés to home‑style meals in smaller communities — so you can relax and focus on enjoying the moment.

• Sustainable Travel: We strive to tread lightly. That means choosing local accommodations, supporting community‑based initiatives, minimising waste and encouraging travel that benefits both people and place.

• Cultural Immersion: Portugal is rich in heritage, traditions, landscapes and stories. We’re committed to helping you go behind the scenes — meet locals, visit lesser‑known places, understand the roots of culture and cuisine — all with respect and curiosity.

​

Our Mission

​

At Portugal Vegan Tours, our mission is simple but powerful: to create immersive, small‑group travel experiences where vegan food, responsible tourism, and cultural connection join hands. We design every journey so you can savour delicious plant‑based cuisine, engage authentically with local communities, and travel gently on the land you visit. Because we know that how you travel matters as much as where you go.

 

Our Story

​

This story begins with me — after two years working as a tour guide across Portugal for travel companies, I realised something important: for the vegan traveller in Portugal, options were limited. There were wonderful landscapes and rich culture everywhere, but few trips designed for vegans who didn’t want to worry about their meals, ethical values or sustainable impact. I decided to change that.
And so, Portugal Vegan Tours was born out of passion and purpose: to carve out a space where plant‑based travellers come together in small groups, share their values, explore Portugal responsibly, and make memories without compromise.

Our Vision

​

We envision a world where vegan travellers feel at home wherever they go — including Portugal. Where travelling, eating, meeting and exploring don’t pull you away from your values, but reinforce them. Our goal is to grow gradually, to continue opening up Portugal in new, meaningful ways, while keeping the heart and soul of what we do personal, ethical and community‑centred. One journey at a time, we aim to contribute to a more compassionate tourism industry and a more connected world.
