On June 26, the weekly newspaper O Expresso included a new feature: the Circuitos Ciência Viva magazine – The Guide to Exploring Portugal through Science! This is a special edition born out of a curiosity to observe and discover the country through science, based on the National Network of Ciência Viva Science Centres.

Across more than 60 pages, you can explore our suggestions of Journeys and routes for this summer and get a first-hand look at the new Campo Maior Ciência Viva Journey, with a special focus on the Centro de Ciência do Café – Ciência Viva Science Centre.

The magazine tells you everything about the Ciência Viva Journeys card, its benefits and how you can set off on an adventure to discover Portugal with the help of the Ciência Viva Science Centres. You’ll be guided by the diversity of landscapes, the wealth of natural resources, the depth of history and the value of science and technology that form part of our heritage.

And if you’re looking for some great ideas for your summer holidays, be sure to take a look at the suggestions in the 2026 summer programme. Make a note of the dates for the upcoming Geração Ciência Festivals, which celebrate Ciência Viva’s 30^th anniversary across the country, and get ready to safely observe the Total Solar Eclipse on 12 August.

At the end, take our quiz and find out which Ciência Viva Journey is ideal for you, based on what you most enjoy doing and visiting with your family.
