Hello! My bf and I (28F) are travelling alone for the first time (exciting!!). I am delighted to say we are going to take on Portugal from August 11-22! We are looking for an equal divide between sight seeing and relaxing. We will definitely be planning our trip around eating as we are major foodies and wine drinkers. On that note, we will not be renting a car.

While I understand that we must include some touristy things, I value the more quaint and local feel. Are there any cities you would recommend to visit that are not as touristy?
