Organized small group, only 8 people. Our guide is funny and informative. Recommended for anyone who is too lazy to find the way to Sintra.

Our guide was really wonderful. Engaging, funny and accommodating. My mother is 72 years old and our guide took time and didn’t rush us while walking the 30 minutes uphill to Pena castle

Palace and gardens were delightful, lunch was delicious, and the westernmost point breathtaking! Tour guide was phenomenal and due to unforeseen circumstances pivoted nicely!

We had the best day with our guide, Tony. He was informative, engaging and eager to share his knowledge of his beautiful country. Great tour guide! Even offered suggestions for our trip to Porto. He seemed to enjoy his job and is great at what he does.
