What To Expect
Park and National Palace of Pena
From our meeting point, we take the coastal road to get to Sintra. Visit to the Pena Palace, a must during your trip to Lisbon. The romantic 19th century palace is a marvel to discover and one that you will not soon forget. This is one of the best places to take photos. It is placed on top of the mountain with a splendid view that stretches for miles, all the way to the ocean.
Azenhas do Mar
Short walk along the cliff before reaching the restaurant for lunch. The view is just spectacular and the restaurant excellent.

5.00Of all our extraordinary experiences in Lisbon, spending the day with Christiano had to be our favorite. It was like traveling with a family member in a most unique VW minibus.
The best tour we did on this trip!

5.00One of the highlights of our trip was a tour of Caiscais, Convento do Capuchins, Regaleiria, Pena Palace and lunch at Azenhas Sdomar which would not be possible without Christiano’s presence. He is knowledgeable, patient, friendly, professional and hardworking. The VW van was such a novel way of travel and all the information that was provided was priceless; in fact, the price of this tour is such a bargain. The ease of getting around with someone who knows the roads is worth every penny. If you are on the fence about booking this tour, it is a no- brainer- book it. Watch Ian and Anna’s video which features parts of this trip.
This is an absolute MUST DO!!

5.00Bravo to Christiano for an unforgettable experience taking us to Cascais, Pena Palace and Sintra. We stopped in the quaint town of Colares and indulged in a delectable lunch at Azenhaus Do Mar. The culinary delights were exquisite and the views were simply awe-inspiring. Christiano generously shared his vast knowledge of the area and traveling in his VW van (which actually belongs to his lovely wife, Laura) was a true delight! This is an absolute MUST DO when visiting Lisbon!!

5.00We had a wonderful tour, spending the day with Christiano in their renovated 1974 VW microbus. He was very flexible and accommodating and shared with us this beautiful part of Portugal. Our tour took us to Cascais, an unplanned stop at Cabo de Roca, the western most point of Europe, a wonderful seaside restaurant with excellent fresh fish for lunch, and a tour of the Peña palace in Sintra. Thank you Christiano and Laura! It was great to meet you and we had a great time!
Best tour of our 2- week trip and top 5 of all time

5.00A fantastic trip all around. Christiano was one of the best guides we have ever had. He started off by asking what we most wanted to do and was flexible in accommodating our wishes. The cliff side restaurant was perhaps the best meal we had on our trip and reasonably priced. A true 10 out of 10 rating.

5.00What a special day! From the minute we were picked up at our hotel in the cool retro van, Christiano was the best host and guide. He gave so much insight and history during the trip and we learned and experienced so much. It was a wonderful day and we have so many amazing memories. Highly recommend this tour!

5.00We had an excellent tour with Laura And Christiano. They were very knowledgeable, passionate and they had amazing stories to tell us about the incredible sites we visited. The Volkswagen bus was a perfect vehicle for the tour and the story behind their Volkswagen bus touched our hearts immensely. What a fantastic day we had. We highly recommend Van Tour Way of Life and will definitely tell all our friends visiting Lisbon! Thank you again, Laura and Christiano for making our day so amazing! Joe & Rose Schmidt
