Recognised for Excellence in Bespoke Travel, Client Service and Luxury Experiences
What These Awards Mean For You
When you travel with Classic Portugal Travel, you are working with a specialist agency recognised for service, innovation, leadership and personalised travel design. For our clients, these awards provide reassurance that every recommendation, itinerary and experience has been carefully curated by a trusted Portugal expert.

Classic Portugal Travel is recognised for bespoke luxury travel, thoughtful service, and deeply personalised journeys across Portugal. Awards are not simply recognition for our business. They reflect the standards, expertise and attention to detail that go into every journey we design.

Awards are not the reason we do what we do — but they reflect the care, creativity and consistency behind every journey we design. For our travellers, this recognition offers reassurance: you are working with a specialist agency trusted for service, originality and attention to detail.

For founder Hayley Sercombe, success has never been measured by awards alone. It is measured by the messages received after a journey, the returning clients who travel with us again, and the unforgettable experiences created across Portugal.
"While we are proud of the recognition we have received, our greatest achievement is the trust our travellers place in us. Every award reflects years of building relationships across Portugal, understanding our clients' needs, and creating journeys that feel deeply personal."
Every journey we create is tailored to the individual traveller. Whether you're celebrating a milestone, planning a family adventure, exploring Portugal's food and wine regions, or simply seeking a more meaningful way to travel, we'll design a journey that feels uniquely yours.

Our commitment to personalised service, local expertise, and exceptional travel experiences has earned recognition from leading industry organisations and publications.
