Vila Real

Located in northern Portugal, Vila Real is a municipality that lies along the Rio Guadiana separating Algarve, Portugal, from Spain, although the two are connected by a bridge from Ayamonte, Spain. There are a number of sites that glampers simply cannot miss in Vila Real, including the Mateus Palace, thought to be the epitome of baroque style down to every last detail, the Cathedral of Vila Real, the Vila Real Theater, and the Alvão Natural Park. This easy-to-navigate area is great for travelers; it's layout is not like other European cities, as it's designed on a grid, instead of primarily winding, narrow, one-way streets. Glamping in Vila Real features luxury yurts with an unparalleled view of the Peneda-Gerês National Park, Portugal's only national park. Walk the trails to the waterfalls, or canoe down the nearby rivers and streams—there's just so much natural beauty to soak up while luxury camping in Vila Real.
