Extremely helpful in planning and executing our return to Portugal trip. They always provide current tips and tricks and links. The tear out maps are a must have and very helpful pre trip. We rented a car this trip so these worked great when Wi-Fi left us in the middle of nowhere. Amazing how much Portugal has changed in the 25 years since we last visited. Thank you for keeping things current. Much appreciated.
