DesWhit Touring Evora - This trip was amazing. Hugo was very personable and a great host/guide. We got to learn about his family and history along with the history of Evora. The sites were wonderful from the cork factory, the town, lunch, and wine tasting. Everything was top notch. We would recommend this experience.

Perfect Day - Hugo (driver/guide) was exceptional. Great advice, great driving, great conversation. The Evora/Monsaraz tour was exactly as advertised with a great lunch reservation. Hugo also added very valuable assistance on how to deal with the forest closures that happened the next day. Basically he saved our vacation and chipped in with a great restaurant recommendation in Cascais.

The best guide ever - Hugo was amazing. Excellent driver. -Beautiful clean car-Good ( English) communication. Wonderful suggestions and helpful hints for the rest of our vacation. Hugo went out of his way to take us back to Belem where we couldn’t get in due to long lines the day before, that was so thoughtful. You won’t find a better guide. Great day!. Thank you Hugo.

Definitely will hire him again - I took my parents to Portugal for my mom's birthday. I am so glad that I booked the tour trip with him as I got sick unexpectedly. He showed my parents around while I stayed in the car and took good care of them so I could get some rest. He is very knowledgeable and shares his love of history. I am grateful for his dedication.

Frita Preta - Evora - Private Driver - Hugo Romano - I would highly recommend Hugo Romano as a private driver and tour guide if you are visiting Portugal. He was our driver for two days for my 3 girlfriends and myself. He was extremely professional, friendly and personable. We felt very at ease with him, and he is a very safe driver and very knowledgeable. We visited the Frita Preta winery for a tour and tasting. Was an amazing winery. Then Hugo recommended and took us to a great little restaurant in Evora. After lunch we toured around Evora, went to the Chapel of the Bones, and had an amazing day all around. Hugo's customer service and love of his country (and 'Red' football team) is what made our trip memorable. Don't hesitate to reach out of him for all your travel needs in Portugal.

Everything awesome - This was the second day of the trip with Mr. Hugo. He went back to planning our itinerary, starting with the cork factory. Then we went to the center of Évora, saw the monuments and had lunch in a restaurant next to the chapel of the bones, with very tasty food, advised by Mr. Hugo. We ended the day trip with a wine tasting. We recommend Hugo, very professional and friendly.

Great tour with a great guide!! - We spent an amazing day with Hugo Romano traveling from Lisbon to Lagos. He was very prompt (early) for pickup, his car was very comfortable and he even had cold water for our journey. We stopped to sightsee in Evora on the way. He brought us to a great lunch spot and even booked us a wine tour. Hugo is a super nice guy who entertained us with information about Portugal and just easygoing conversation. My group of four highly recommend Hugo!! Thanks Hugo!!

Excellent Evora Adventure - Hugo drove my friend and I to Evora from Lagos and then on to Lisbon. It was a fabulous day with him! Hugo took us to Evora an pulled out all the stops! We saw the Roman Temple, walked through town, visited Chapel of Bones and had lunch outside at an adorable cafe. Hugo is so friendly and easy to talk to and has answers to any questions. Hugo also took us to a winery, which the wine was some of the best I’ve ever tasted. He really did a good job recommending experiences to us to make our transfer special. His car is clean and nice and even has wifi! Five stars for Hugo and I 100% recommend connecting with him for your trip.
