11/10 Would 100% Recommend - This was an absolutely amazing experience. Jorge was an amazing guide and I would 11/10 recommend.
We got to experience some of the most amazing views I have ever seen and learned so much about the past and present of Lisbon and Portuguese history. His knowledge was amazing.
This recommended restaurant was some of the best food.
This adventure was definitely one of the highlights of our trip.

Amazing day! - We had an amazing day! Our guide not only worked magic to get us in to Pena palace very late (completely our fault), but knew an incredible amount of history which we couldn't get enough of!
We never felt rushed and got to see everything we wanted. We had engaging conversation on our ride and really just enjoyed getting to know our guide- she even took super cool and interesting photos of us throughout! 10/10 and would definitely book again!

Truly a wonderful day in Lisbon! - Everything about the day was perfect. Our guide, Sonia tailored the trip to concentrate on what we were most interested in; we really appreciated the flexibility. Sonia gave us such wonderful historical background to the cities, the castles and the sights along the coast. She recommended a wonderful restaurant that was fabulous and introduced us to the special pastries made famous in Sintra since the mid 1800s-yummy 😊
The tour was the highlight of our visit to the Lisbon area and we would strongly recommend I go Portugal!!

One of the highlights of out trip to Portugal - Fantastic. Our tour was supposed to leave at 8:00 AM but because I had a stomach issue the tour operator was kind enough to change to 10:00 AM The experience was behind fantastic thanks to the compassionate driver that kept the fact that I was not feeling well . This was one of the highlights of our trip to Portugal and the driver sure made it so. I highly recommend
Strongly recommend Miquel

10 hours of gun - As all the guidebooks tell you… go to Sintra !!! They are correct. We did a private tour to Cascais, Cabo da Roca, Moorish castle, lunch in the town of Sintra and the Pena Palace. Lots of driving but I think well worth it.

Portugal's beautiful coast through the eyes of a local. Ana you rock! - Our day trip to Sintra, Pena Palace, Cabo da Roca, and Cascais was absolutely unforgettable, thanks to our amazing guide, Ana! As a true local, she brought the history and beauty of these places to life with fascinating inside stories, especially about the stunning Pena Palace. Her passion and knowledge made the experience so much more special. Ana even took us to her hometown of Cascais, where she shared hidden gems and local favorites that we never would have found on our own. The entire trip was seamless, well-organized, and filled with breathtaking sights. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide—Ana truly made our day magical! Highly recommend this tour!
