Our Palace

ARRIVAL IN LISBON: Downtown Lisbon is just a twenty minute cab ride from the airport. We will meet at the Luxury Sofitel on the Avenida da Liberdade, the most fashionable street in Lisbon. You can arrive any time on September 27 and we will be there to greet you. We'll have a dinner and show in Lisbon that evening and then proceed to the Bussaco palace the next morning. Several of us will be in Lisbon a few days early, so if you'd like to come and explore Lisbon on you own for a few days we'd be happy to reserve you a room for your early arrival.

WHAT'S INCLUDED: All accomodations and group ground transportation, including to and from Bussaco on September 28 and October 4, respectively. All meals are provided with Breakfast each day during the excursions, and dinner and a show each night in the palace. House wines are included with dinner. The best inclusion, however, is the camaraderie and memories that will come from being surrounded by your friends, old and new, all while enjoying music, port wine and general revelry in a palace the comes straight out of a fairy tale fantasy.

COSTS: The all inclusive cost of the adventure is $4,950 per person, double occupancy. All the rooms in the palace are very nice, with private baths. Most of the bathrooms are large and all have updated plumbing. This palace is quite unique, and no two rooms are alike. So if you want to splurge a little, you can have one of the twenty largest and nicest rooms or suites in the palace for a supplement of $650 per person.

DEPOSITS, RESERVATIONS & CANCELLATIONS: A $500 deposit will hold your place. Your deposit is fully refundable for any reason, up to the time of your second payment, which will be due in spring of next year. Your deposits are fully transferable to someone else at any time. If you need to cancel, you will receive a full refund if either you or Castles & Concerts can find a substitute traveler to take your place.
