Around the Dinner Table
Cascais, Portugal
Around the Dinner Table
On our trips, we have a few main goals: connecting amazing groups of like-minded people, eating an endless amount of delicious (local) vegan food, staying at beautiful local properties like Casa Vela Hotel, and diving into the vibrant culture of the locations that we visit.
In 2022, we could think of no one better to partner with to help create a warm, family atmosphere than the lovely and talented mother daughter duo Crowded Kitchen.
Beth and Lexi will both be joining us for a full week in Cascais, where they will not only participate in our fantastic activities, they will also be hosting two exciting cooking demos throughout the week!
Beautiful sunsets, a city trip to Lisbon, traditional Portuguese tile-painting, a wine-tasting, a hike through the village of Sintra and mouth-watering vegan Pastel de Nata!
These are just a few of the highlights we’ll enjoy on this magical adventure through culture-rich Portugal, which will ultimately bring us together Around the Dinner Table.
We continue to have a very close eye on the Covid-19 pandemic around the world.
At each of our getaways we work hand in hand with local teams to comply with the regulations in that country.
If it becomes impossible to run any of our getaways a refund or credit will be extended to our guests.
