5.00Our tour was so worth it. Ricardo was very knowledgeable about the history of all the areas and we saw everything we wanted to see and more. He was also a nice guy and our whole group had fun chatting with him the entire time. Request for Ricardo!

5.00We had an great day exploring Sintra, Pena Palace, and Cascais with our guide Ricardo! He was engaging and knowledgeable about the history and culture of the area. Ricardo gave us great recommendations throughout the day from the best viewpoints to where to lunch with locals which made the experience enjoyable. The weather was challenging but he knew how to pivot to maximize our experience...we also appreciated his very cautious driving through some inclement weather!
Excellent tour!

5.00The private tour was wonderful! Our guide, Ricardo was passionate about Sintra! After viewing the palace, monastery and castle areas, Ricardo took us to a local restaurant for lunch that his family frequented when he was a young boy. Afterwards we drove along the Atlantic Coast to Cascais and then back to Lisbon.

5.00Had a wonderful experience with Riccardo as our guide - if you are able to request him, we highly recommend it! Thoroughly enjoyed all of our conversation with Riccardo, and the experiences he shared with us. It was our choice not to go into the ruins of the Moorish Castle, just to walk to the top, and we heard from others that even though it's in ruins, it is worth the time and cost to go inside. We were not able to go to Cascais as it was closed for the International Ironman, but that gave us more time in Sintra and also at Pena Palace.

5.00Ricardo, our guide was incredible. He knew the history of his Country and the surrounding area inside and out. We visited little known points of interest as well as tourist must-see places along the way. From start to finish, we would not change a thing, especially our wonderful guide!

5.00We had arrived at the train station not knowing where to start. Luckily, we found Nuno & Diego and began the adventure with them. We were a group of eight, and we split into two vehicles. We got the jeep! Nuno and Diego know a lot of history about the places we visited. They were very cordial, polite, and informative. They also carefully planned the timings at the sites we visited. We recommend other tourists have an unforgettable day with these two guys! Thank you so much for everything, Nuno and Diego!
