Flights + Wheels Up Wallet Information

✈️What About Flights?
Most airlines don’t open their schedules until about 6–11 months out (roughly 330 days), so even if we wanted flight prices right now, they simply aren’t available yet. But don’t worry, Girl Let's Go offers a Wheels Up Wallet that allows travelers to set aside funds toward airfare while our Destination Darlings assist with monitoring and coordinating flight options once pricing becomes available. The Wheels Up Wallet may be added during registration. Official airport guidance, suggested arrival windows, and transfer details will be released once airline schedules become available.

Word to the Wise
Book the trip, but protect the bag. All payments made toward travel packages are nonrefundable and nontransferable. Once received, funds are applied toward vendors, suppliers, accommodations, operational planning, and curated trip components through Girl Let’s Go.

For that reason, travel insurance is strongly recommended. Travelers seeking additional flexibility should consider Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) coverage when available. Travelers may use their own provider or request a quote through our partners at www.girlletsgo.com/travelinsurance.

Hello World. Portugal is calling. 🇵🇹

Hello World, sis. You made it.

Touch down in Lisbon and let Portugal officially begin. After clearing the airport, you’ll meet your driver and settle in for a scenic private transfer south to Portimão — where coastal views, ocean air, and slower energy start setting the tone for the days ahead.

Today is intentionally light. No rushing. No packed agenda. Just enough time to arrive, settle into your hotel, freshen up, and take in the feeling of finally being here. Whether you decide to walk the marina, grab dinner nearby, enjoy the beach views, or simply recharge in your room, the night is yours.

This is the calm before the music, movement, and unforgettable moments ahead.

Overnight: Portimão
Meals Included: None (Arrival Day)

Wake up in Portugal, sis. Today is where the scenery and the energy both start showing out.

After breakfast at the hotel, head out for a coastal boat experience through the famous Benagil Caves and Algarve shoreline. Along the way, you’ll pass beautiful cliff formations, hidden beaches, turquoise water, and iconic coastal spots including Boneca, Algar Seco, Vale Covo, Vale Centeanes, Carvalho, and Benagil.

This is one of those days where your camera roll starts working overtime. Sun on your skin. Salt in the air. Good music somewhere in the background. Portugal doing what Portugal does.

After some time to freshen up and reset, it’s time for the main event — Afro Nation Portugal. Expect music, culture, fashion, people from all over the world, and an atmosphere that honestly can’t be explained unless you’ve experienced it for yourself.

When the night wraps up, your private GLG coach transportation will be waiting to bring you back to the hotel comfortably — no figuring it out after the festival, no shared shuttle chaos, no stress.

Important Note: Afro Nation Festival admission tickets are not included in the Girl Let’s Go package and must be purchased independently.

Good morning, Portugal. Today is about taking in the beauty of the Algarve beyond the festival grounds.

After breakfast at the hotel, head out with your local guide for a half-day experience through Lagos and Sagres — two coastal gems filled with history, cliffs, ocean views, and the kind of scenery that almost doesn’t look real in person.

Explore the town of Lagos and learn about Portugal’s connection to the Age of Discovery while walking through streets layered with culture, charm, and history. Then continue toward Ponta da Piedade, where dramatic rock formations, turquoise water, and cliffside views make this part of the Algarve unforgettable. The drive through Sagres brings a slower, scenic side of Portugal that perfectly balances the energy of the festival experience.

After some time back to refresh and reset, it’s time to head back into the Afro Nation atmosphere for another evening of music, culture, and unforgettable energy by the coast.

And when the night wraps up, your private GLG coach transportation will be waiting to comfortably take you back to the hotel — because figuring out transportation after a festival is not the vibe.

Good morning from the Algarve, sis.

By now, Portugal should be starting to feel familiar — the ocean air, the slower mornings, the late nights, the music, the energy. Today is another chance to enjoy it your way before heading back into the Afro Nation atmosphere later tonight.

After breakfast at the hotel, the morning and early afternoon are yours at leisure. Maybe you spend it poolside with a drink nearby, maybe you head down to the beach, explore local cafés, enjoy the marina, or pull together your look for another festival night in Portugal. No rushing. No strict schedule. Just good weather, beautiful scenery, and time to enjoy being somewhere else for a while.

As the afternoon rolls in, get ready for another Afro Nation experience filled with music, culture, style, and unforgettable energy along the coast of Portimão. And once the night wraps up, your private GLG coach transportation will be waiting to comfortably take you back to the hotel.

Good morning, sis. Today we trade beach cliffs for city streets.

After breakfast at the hotel, check out and settle in for your private transfer to Lisbon — Portugal’s vibrant capital filled with history, charm, culture, and beautiful contrasts between old-world architecture and modern city life.

Once you arrive and check into your hotel, it’s time to experience Lisbon through the eyes of a local guide. This half-day city experience takes you through some of the city’s most iconic neighborhoods and landmarks, from the historic Baixa district and Praça do Comércio to the beautiful riverside area of Belém.

Along the way, you’ll discover the layered history of Lisbon, a city shaped by explorers, traditions, and cultures from around the world while still somehow holding onto its neighborhood feel and character. Visit the monumental Belém area and see landmarks including the famous Jerónimos Monastery, built to honor Portugal’s Age of Discovery and the legacy of Infante D. Henrique.

And yes sis… there will absolutely be time to stop and try the famous Pastéis de Belém because leaving Lisbon without trying them would honestly feel disrespectful.

The day continues through Lisbon’s medieval quarters before exploring more modern spaces like Parque das Nações, where contemporary architecture and waterfront views show another side of the city.

This is the Portugal experience in full — coastlines, culture, history, nightlife, food, and moments that all feel completely different from one another while somehow fitting together perfectly.

Good morning, sis. Today feels like stepping into another side of Portugal entirely.

After breakfast at the hotel, depart with your local guide for a full-day experience through Sintra, Cabo da Roca, and Cascais — a day filled with castles, coastal cliffs, charming streets, ocean views, and the kind of scenery that honestly feels cinematic in person.

Your first stop takes you into the storybook world of Sintra, a destination known for its romantic architecture, colorful palaces, hillside streets, and dreamy atmosphere that almost feels untouched by time. Explore the historic town center and visit the famous Sintra National Palace with entrance included.

Along the way, make sure you save room for one of the best parts of the day — tasting Sintra’s famous regional pastries including the beloved travesseiros and queijadinhas de Sintra. Sweet, flaky, warm, and honestly part of the experience at this point.

The journey continues toward Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of continental Europe, where dramatic cliffs meet the Atlantic Ocean in a way that makes you stop and just take it all in for a second.

From there, travel along the beautiful Atlantic coastline before arriving in Cascais, once known as the preferred vacation retreat for European aristocracy and royal families. Here, coastal elegance, relaxed cafés, marina views, and charming streets create the perfect ending to the day before returning to Lisbon.

Today is Portugal in layers — history, beauty, architecture, pastries, ocean air, cliffside views, and moments that feel almost unreal while you’re standing in them.

Take your time this morning. Maybe it’s one more coffee, one more pastry, one more look out the window before it’s time to head to the airport. By now, Portugal probably feels a little familiar — the cobblestone streets, the ocean air, the late nights, the music, the food, the conversations, the moments you didn’t even realize would stay with you like this.

After check-out, your private transfer will take you to Lisbon Airport for departure. And somewhere between the ride to the airport and your flight home, you’ll probably realize this trip became more than just another stamp in your passport.

New memories. New connections. New stories.

And maybe… a new reason to say yes to the next one.

Meals Included: Breakfast

Safe travels home, sis. Until next time. ✈️
