It will pass trough some historic cities of Portugal, and the best of all, is that the Tour can be followed by car, so that you don't miss none of the dozens of Ultralights! APAU also managed to get spotters credencials for the places were it will land during the tour. In this particular photo, we can see the River Tejo (photo facing North), the LPSR (Santarém) airstrip and the fantastic city of Santarém, that lays on a hill!
