Travel is by direct flight, out of Paris to Lisbon and back from Porto to Paris. Participants starting from a regional city can be pre-routed by the operator’s transport department, which quotes that leg case by case; it is not part of the published price. In the cities the group moves on public transport — bus and tram — and on foot.
In city-centre youth hostels, in single-sex dormitories of four to ten beds. Showers and toilets are shared and sit outside the rooms. A collective kitchen and a common or activity room are available to the group.
Breakfast is taken at the hostel, lunch is a picnic or a snack while the group is out, and dinners are eaten in snack bars or small local restaurants.
The operator publishes a minimum of twelve and a maximum of twenty participants for this stay. Supervision is by a qualified director and activity leaders, at a ratio of one adult for every eight participants.
Yes. The operator takes out cover for every participant — assistance and repatriation, individual accident, third-party liability, legal costs and baggage — and advances medical expenses incurred during the stay.
A valid passport or national identity card that meets the requirements of the destination country. The operator asks families to check the physical condition of the document as well as its validity: a tear, a damaged cover, loose pages or water marks can lead to refusal of boarding or of entry, even when the details and photograph are perfectly legible.
