Sintra palace - There are lots of steps and hills. Beautiful place to visit, worth the hike up. There is a cafe at the top to grab a snack and eat

Disappointing - We booked a small group excursion, and you combined us with four other groups, making us more than 20 people. Not enough headsets for everyone, and traveling more than a few feet from the guide you couldn’t hear on the headset. Bus was more than an hour late on arrival and took more than an hour to return making us late for our dinner reservations.

Great timing to see and enjoy. - Leonor was an excellent guide - made us all feel welcome and our driver was smooth. The timing of the tour was great as we got to Sintra before the vast crowds and got to try some pastries and a Jin-jinga which kicked our day off brilliantly. We did split up though so that we could get both types of pastries and the Jin-jinga. Just remember to get a ticket from the deli if you’re going to the pastry shop for ‘pillow’ pastries. Up a hill to the Quinta de regaleira- it’s the only way up there. Leonor was able to give us a great synopsis of some cool history then back to Santa for lunch - we were able to get off the beaten track a little bit thanks to Leonor’s tips and our party of 6 got a table. Great time for lunch then off to the Pena palace - again lots of climbing and stairs.

Guided Tour: Sintra, Pena, Regaleira, Cabo de Roca & Cascais - Joao M was our tour guide for this all day excursion. My wife and I firmly believe that he created the right atmosphere for our 8-person tour group. He was witty, friendly, engaging, very knowledgeable, all important qualities that one must have to effectively and successfully engage a group. Additionally, Joao was able to pivot between the group, as some of us spoke English while others spoke Portuguese. He was sensitive in such a manner that nothing was lost in translation and in the process, he met everyone’s needs. Joao took us to each historical location and provided historical context and bring it to life for us to see the rich and vibrant history of the Portuguese culture. He helped us understand the more influence while touching on the time of the Salazar dictatorship and authoritarianism. Through that lens, what was evident in his presentation was the resolve and resilience of the Portuguese people. To be fair, the tracks were grueling, but Joao made the experience tolerable with his wit and engaging smile. In addition, having umbrellas was a great help for all of us! While we saw many things throughout the day, perhaps the most important event occurred at lunch. During that time, we all bonded and connected as a group, forging relationships that will extend beyond today’s event. Joao help to make that a reality, and we are most grateful to him for his significant role in that process. He is to be commended for the work that he did today. Well done, Joao!
