Frequently Asked

We are not a travel agency. NOMADIQ is a private concierge service: a small, dedicated team you work with directly. There are no packages to browse, no algorithms, no call centres. You reach out, we have a conversation, and we design everything around you.

Our clients are typically international travellers: individuals, couples, and families who value privacy, quality, and their time above all. They come to Portugal wanting more than a hotel booking: they want to arrive somewhere and feel it was made for them.

The earlier, the better, especially for peak season (May to October). The best properties and private experiences in Comporta and Lisbon book months ahead. That said, we regularly arrange last-minute trips for clients who need it, and we will always tell you honestly what is possible.

There is no formal minimum, but our service is best suited to trips of four nights or more where the benefit of a dedicated concierge truly shows. We are happy to discuss any request.

It means we are reachable throughout your stay, not just before it. If a restaurant reservation needs to change, if you want a boat for the afternoon, if the villa needs something sorted: you message us, and it gets handled. Most requests are resolved within the hour.

Yes. Many of the finest properties in Comporta and Lisbon are never publicly advertised. They are shared within a network of trusted intermediaries. Access to these properties is one of the main reasons clients come to us.

Regularly. We work with a select group of private chefs who cook in your villa, trusted drivers who know both cities and countryside, and sailing operators who run day charters and longer coastal voyages. All are vetted and consistently excellent.

Absolutely. Bespoke experiences are central to what we do. We arrange private surf sessions at Comporta's best breaks, horseback rides through the Alentejo, private tastings with winemakers, coastal boat trips at sunset, and much more. Always private, never off-the-shelf.

We charge a service fee that varies depending on the scope and duration of your trip. This covers the planning, sourcing, and on-the-ground support we provide. All fees are communicated clearly before you commit to anything. No surprises.

In most cases, no. We have direct relationships with property owners and managers that often yield rates equivalent to or better than what you would find independently. Where a small premium applies, you receive planning, coordination, and support that most clients consider well worth it.

None. Initial conversations are always complimentary and without obligation. We would rather take the time to understand your trip properly before discussing fees.

These are our core areas and where our network is deepest. We can extend to surrounding regions, including the Alentejo, the Silver Coast, and the Douro, on request, and we are honest about where our knowledge is strongest.

Yes. We arrange private airport transfers in comfortable, discreet vehicles. We also coordinate transfers between Lisbon and Comporta, which takes roughly 90 minutes by car and is often part of a combined trip.

Late May through early October for warm weather and beach days. June and September are particularly special: the light is extraordinary, the dunes are at their best, and the crowds are thinner than in July and August. For Lisbon, almost any time of year works beautifully.
