U owe it to Travel in Lisbon with only the best guide - It was a 8mth planning for our Portugal trip for 4 retired ladies. Our first stop at Lisbon went well as we were able to plan visiting the tourist spots on foot
However when it came to Sintra and our bucket list to Nazaré and traveling onwards to our next stop at Porto , it posed a bit of challenge as we were uncomfortable joining a tour and undecided if we shld diy
As fate would hv it, we chanced on Hugo Romano who not only gave us sound advice on covering Sintra, nazare, Óbidos and aveiro before dropping us off at Porto on a two day trip . Again we can’t thank him enough for taking such good care of us and being a careful
Driver . Trust me .. I did a lot of enquiries and he was really reasonable
Throughout the two days with him, he shared us interesting stories on Portugal, tickled us with funny quips and blew us away with his passion for football . He even offered to bring us to a football match and gave us great tips where to dine
Traveling is a blessed way to discover the world and make acquaintances. We left Lisbon with great memories and a new found son in Hugo
Pls do consider contacting him @ +351 967 633 573 if u want a genuine guide who is considerate , flexible and keen in fulfilling your thirst for adventure in Lisbon. He also packaged himself in as our photographer🤗

Turning a tedious drive into a day of adventures thanks to Hugo. - What could have been a simple transfer from Lisbon to Porto turned into one of the most memorable parts of our entire trip to Portugal—all thanks to Hugo.
Let’s be honest: long drives can be tedious. But not with Hugo behind the wheel. From the moment we set off, it was clear this wasn’t just transportation—it was a curated experience. Hugo turned the journey into a rich, engaging, and downright delightful adventure. With his signature blend of charm, deep knowledge, and sharp sense of humor, he transformed every mile into a story worth hearing.
What made the trip truly special were the stops he planned along the way—hidden gems, breathtaking overlooks, charming towns, and even a surprise food spot we never would have found on our own. Hugo instinctively knew what would resonate with us and customized the experience on the fly, tailoring the day to match our pace, curiosity, and energy.
He’s not just a driver. He’s a cultural ambassador, a walking encyclopedia, and a travel whisperer all in one. Hugo has that rare gift of turning even the “in-between” moments of a trip into something meaningful and unforgettable.
If you’re lucky enough to travel with Hugo, prepare for more than just a ride—prepare for a journey filled with insight, laughter, beauty, and unexpected joy.
Thank you, Hugo. You elevated our trip in ways we didn’t even know were possible.

A++. Fantastic driver. Perfect introduction to Portugal. - A++. Hugo was perfect for private driver upon our arrival in Portugal. He was friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, humorous, and safe. Best of all he was very responsive and helpful as we planned out our travel and sorted through all of the logistics. Honestly on other vacations we have arranged transfers through our hotels — we wish there was a Hugo everywhere that we went. Thank you Hugo for making our Portugal experience memorable!

Transfer with stops - great experience! - We (2 adults, two 12yo) used Hugo for a transfer from Porto to Lisbon via Aveiro, Nazaré and Obidos. We spent just enough time in each place. He was a safe driver despite some terrible weather. In Nazaré he suggested a Clifford restaurant with ocean views. He even asked the restaurant to remove the shrimp with the head on as part of the couvert because I had told him my kids get a little freaked out by it! He was sensitive to my son’s medical condition. He clearly knew people in each location and was well liked. He always offered to take pics of us at opportune moments (like trying Ginja in Obidos) and kept the kids engaged with just enough history. He was also reasonably priced! He was well humored and patient whether w you are an introvert or extrovert. You don’t need to worry about keeping constant conversation but had comfortable chit chat when we were in the mood
Highly recommend and would use him again!

Great day and transfer with Hugo - We highly recommend considering this transfer. Hugo was able to answer questions, and help plan our stops before the transfer. He adjusted the usual tour to our liking. It was great to see more of Portugal on out way from Lisbon to Porto. It made our adventure much more exciting, seeing things that we would not have seen otherwise.
Hugo was great. We highly recommend him!

Daytrip Lisbon to Porto - I arranged for Hugo Romano to drive my husband and I from Lisbon to Porto w/ stops in Obidos, Nazare, Figueira do Foz and Aviero. From our first contact, Hugo was extremely responsive and helpful, offering insights to my travel itinerary (even for my plans outside of the day he was driving us). He is knowledgeable and personable. As an aside, he taught us a bit about Portugal’s soccer clubs and has promised to send my husband a Benefica jersey! Hugo takes great pride in his country and doing his job well. It’s important to him that his clients enjoy themselves and it shows. After delivering us to Porto, he has continued to send me helpful information for the remainder of our stay in Portugal.
Hugo is personable, knowledgeable and helpful. I highly him as your guide to a great Portugal trip.
