A Christmas Journey Through Portugal’s Heart – The Comboio Histórico do Vouga
As the holiday season approaches, there's no better way to embrace the magic of Christmas than aboard the Comboio Histórico do Vouga. This special Christmas train ride, running from November 23rd to January 4th, offers a unique blend of tradition, history, and festive cheer.
Imagine traveling through Portugal’s stunning landscapes aboard one of the oldest trains in the country, pulled by the iconic locomotive diesel 9004, a true symbol of railway history. Along the way, passengers can indulge in regional treats like pastéis de Águeda, visit the Museu Ferroviário de Macinhata do Vouga, and take in the festive lights of Águeda, home to the World’s Largest and Smallest Santa Claus.
For families, especially those with young children, this journey is a chance to create memories that will last a lifetime. The Christmas magic is everywhere—from the Umbrella Sky to the twinkling lights and Christmas displays.
