“I could not recommend them enough!”
I have worked with ACrew4U on a variety of jobs from Entertainment formats like Saturday Night Takeaway to Reality shows in the form of Love Island spin offs. Nothing is ever a problem and the team work extremely well on a fast turnaround basis, linking us up with local facilitators to ensure everything is organised ahead of our teams arrival and that it all runs smoothly on the ground for the duration of the shoot. I could not recommend them enough!

“It’s a real pleasure working with ACrew4U. They are true professionals. They respond and work fast and know how to work within tight budgets. Their international network is topnotch and therefor I work with them.
For my projects I had to shoot A-List celebrities and needed last minute crews in multiple European countries. They managed to organize it all and on top of that, they got us the best local people on the job. I woud recommend working with them any time.”

Factfile: Portugal
Television programmes set or shot in Portugal offer viewers a captivating glimpse into the country’s rich cultural tapestry and breathtaking natural landscapes. From the sun-drenched beaches of the Algarve to the historic cities of Lisbon and Porto, Portugal’s diverse regions provide the perfect backdrop for a wide array of television genres. Crime dramas, for instance, leverage the dramatic cliffs and charming cobblestone streets of coastal towns to heighten the tension and intrigue, while romantic comedies bask in the country’s old-world charm and vibrant cityscapes. Nature documentaries, on the other hand, transport audiences to the rugged Douro Valley, where terraced vineyards cling to steep hillsides, and the Azores archipelago, a remote volcanic haven teeming with unique flora and fauna. Even reality shows have capitalized on Portugal’s allure, pitting contestants against the challenges of navigating the country’s winding backroads or immersing them in the lively festivals and time-honored traditions that define its cultural identity. Regardless of the specific format, these Portugal-set television programmes share a common thread – the ability to showcase the country’s diverse splendor in a way that captivates viewers and inspires them to explore this enchanting corner of the world for themselves. Whether it’s the soulful sounds of fado music, the savory aromas of Portuguese cuisine, or the centuries-old architecture that dots the landscape, these shows offer a window into a destination that is both familiar and foreign, allowing audiences to experience the unique charm of Portugal from the comfort of their own homes.
