Your DMC in Portugal and Spain
for travel agents and tour operators
HighSun is a licensed Portuguese destination management company with more than ten years of incoming experience. We design and operate FIT, group and MICE programmes across Portugal and Spain, with net rates, a B2B booking portal and a team on the ground from the first briefing to the last transfer.
What a DMC does, and what HighSun does differently
A destination management company (DMC) is the local partner of a travel agency or tour operator: it contracts hotels, transport, guides, restaurants and activities in the destination, builds the programme and operates it on the ground. HighSun does this for Portugal and Spain from a single office, so your Iberian programmes have one contract, one contact and one standard of service on both sides of the border.
Every programme is built from scratch for the profile of your clients. We do not resell packages: we design itineraries, negotiate directly with local suppliers we have worked with for years, and keep a HighSun person reachable throughout the operation.

How do I get net rates?
Register on the B2B portal to book hotels, transfers and experiences online at net rates with instant confirmation, or send us a briefing for a tailor-made proposal for groups, FIT and MICE.
Are you licensed?
Yes. HighSun Tourism Experiences Lda is licensed by Turismo de Portugal as a travel agency and tour operator (RNAVT 6070) and as a tourism entertainment company (RNAAT 06/2016), and is a member of APAVT.
What happens if something goes wrong during the trip?
Your clients have a 24-hour HighSun line while travelling, and we solve issues on the spot through our local representatives. Problems reported at the moment they occur are fixed at the destination.
