Fantastic guide, fantastic tour - Catering was a fantastic guide and made our day thoroughly enjoyable from start to end. Her knowledge on the history of Portugal was exceptional and she was extremely friendly, courteous and keen to ensure she made it the best experience possible for our family and the other family in our group. Sintra, Pena Palace and Cascais were all well worth a visit and Caterina left us to wander these places by ourselves but was very helpful by texting us her location as to where to meet afterwards. I thoroughly recommend this trip (navigating such a day trip by ourselves would have been a total hassle, from parking and restaurant choices to ticket purchasing for the palace). If you’re lucky enough to have Caterina as your guide then so much the better! X

Great tour proving early birds get the worm. - Evu was our English speaking guide in Libson. The tour location and start time was precise and strictly followed for a good reason! To avoid crowds! This is an early bird gets the worm tour that paid dividends in more places visited with less stress and crowds. Our driver was perfect and even scored bonus points by providing water to fix the broken electric car blocking the narrow road to the Pena Palace!
