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!

Fantastic experience. Ask for Anna! - The tour went perfect. Anna was there right on time at 9 AM in front of our hotel and greeted us very warmly. She then proceeded to tell us the entire history of the country which was excellent because the palace visit because we knew a lot before we even got there. She then took us to the Western most point, which is fantastic and then we had a great lunch at a restaurant by the ocean. She was so kind to make a reservation for us and we got one of the best seats in the house. She also sang some Fado for us, which was a pleasant surprise and I think she should continue to Sing For other guests as well. Thank you once again for a fantastic day.

A walk through history - Ana was very friendly, genuine, and outspoken. It was a pleasure talking to her. She shared a wealth of details about the history of the buildings and places we visited, and we truly learned so much from her. She was also very thoughtful, offering to help us take photos and even showing us the best angles for capturing the sights. There was never a dull moment, thank you for the wonderful tour!
