Every winter, travellers from colder climates flock to southern Spain and Portugal to trade snow and grey skies for sunshine, seaside promenades and outdoor café culture. Long stays in these regions are incredibly popular – but many require you to stay in one location for weeks, organize your own sightseeing, find grocery stores, cook meals, or search for restaurants every day.

I wanted to create something far more relaxing, social and exciting.

This Travel With Bradley Long Stay Journey combines the comfort of extended stays with the ease and discovery of a fully escorted tour. We will stay in four uniquely different hotels across Spain and Portugal, explore historic cities, charming villages and breathtaking coastlines, and enjoy included meals every single day. No planning, no grocery shopping and no wondering where to eat – simply relax and enjoy the sunshine while everything is taken care of.

Our two coastal hotels are perfectly suited for long-stay living. Rather than large, glitzy resort properties that you find in some parts of the world, these welcoming seaside hotels focus on comfort, location and relaxed coastal lifestyle – exactly what makes winter escapes in southern Europe so enjoyable. Spending a longer time at two of the properties allows you to truly settle in and enjoy day-to-day Mediterranean and Portuguese life just like the many European travelers who return year after year.

Long winter stays in southern Spain and Portugal are hugely popular with travellers from the UK and Northern Europe, creating a lively and social atmosphere throughout the season.

With so much included – hotels, excursions, meals, experiences and full-time hosting – considering the tour length this journey offers outstanding value and a wonderful escape from the Canadian winter.

As a bonus, I can’t wait to share two of my favourite cities – Seville and Lisbon – with you on this incredible adventure.

Be sure to join me,
