Sintra and Cascais outstanding tour. - Diana was wonderful. She was energetic, knowledgeable, caring, well organized and charming. You can tell from her interactions with her fellow guides that she is respected by all of them. The tour did exactly what we wanted; to get outside the city and see the Pena Palace. But we also went to Sintra town center and then on to the coastline and Cascais. Lunch at a beach side restaurant was outstanding. We spent 9 hours with Diana and it went by quickly. She is also a very safe driver. We highly recommend her and this tour.

Evora exploration - We had such an amazing time with Bruno, who came highly recommended by Diana. Not only was he interesting and knowledgeable, he was also funny and thoughtful. We were fortunate enough to spend three days exploring neighboring areas to Lisbon. Bruno made sure everyone (group of 7) was engaged, and with ages varying from 21-75 it was no small feat. Bruno was always ready with umbrellas, waters, and even a bandaid for a blister. He was a wizard at avoiding traffic, crowds and lines (cues). If you are fortunate enough to get a tour with Bruno you will be as thankful as we all were.

Lisbon Treasures - Diana was our tour guide and driver for our trip. We arrived at Lisbon on March 6tt and departed for USA on March 10th. She picked us up at the airport as promised, took us for a city tour after fee freshened up. Our last trip to Lisbon was a short day and a half visit. Diana showed us unbelievable points of interest along with its history. We never knew that before. The next day was a memorable visit to Pena Palace in Sintra. On March 8th we visited Óbidos and Nazare. On March 9th she took us to a cork factory, a classic winery and caldas da Rainha and Évora. So we went to Lisbon, the western part, about an hour North and an hour and a half south with unforgettable memories and impeccable guidance by Diana. She took extra care in arranging vegetarian restaurants for us. We are thinking of her as our family rather than a tour guide.

Great tour - My husband and I and our two kids (7 and 4) just returned from a tour to Pena Palace, Sintra, Cabo da Roca, and Cascais with Diana. It was wonderful! Diana provided a clean, well equipped van with a car seat and booster seat. She was an excellent guide and took time to explain the history and facts to the kids in a way they understood. Knowing we were coming with children she also built in playground time to our tour. She was knowledgeable and kind. This tour was a highlight of our trip! Thank you Diana for a wonderful experience that we will not soon forget.

Diana is the best! She KNOWS the area!!! - Diana was perfecto! She was patient with the kids, attentive, and full of information about the culture and history of the area. She even had towels and blankets in case our kids accidentally stepped too far into the water when walking in the beach (which of course they did!). She was patient on the road and avoided traffic with her expertise. The restaurant reservation she made was perfect. She was a joy to be with the entire day. She was easy to talk to, and you could tell she is passionate about her job. She knows everyone and was constantly saying hello to people she knew as we passed by them on the streets, in the cafes, or at the paces or tourist areas. Highly recommend!!!

Amazing full day trip!! - We had an amazing day with Diana from Ride for You Portugal! She was fantastic with our kids and made the entire experience unforgettable. We started our day at 8:30 AM and visited incredible spots like Pena Palace, Quinta da Regaleira, Cabo da Roca, Cascais, and Sintra. Diana even took us to one of the oldest bakeries in Sintra to try their famous pastries, which was a delightful treat. Throughout the trip, she shared fascinating stories about the history of Lisbon, Sintra, the Moorish Castle, and the Portuguese kings.Cabo da Roca was stunning. Diana was very easy to work with and reasonably priced. She asked all the right questions about our itinerary during the planning stage to make sure everything was perfect. She also provided car seats for both of our kids, which was really helpful. My son had plenty of questions, and she patiently answered every single one. Her driving skills were impressive, especially on the narrow roads of Sintra, which isn’t an easy task. We loved our day trip with her and would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Portugal!
