Carolina was the best tour guide. She engaged all of us including my kids so well and made the trip so enjoyable. She had the best breakfast and lunch places as well serving traditional and authentic Portuguese food. Highly recommend Carolina and this group.

This was a really nice way to see highlights of Sintra and Cascais. Nuno was our driver and he was so sweet and respectful as we had 2 toddlers with us, he went at our pace and was very knowledgeable and even recommended an excellent place for lunch. The beauty of this tour is you can make it jam packed as you want or relax, the tour guide really works with you and your group!

This day trip was amazing. Lisa was a fabulous tour guide for my boyfriend and I. She picked us up at a location super close to our hotel. From start to finish we had wonderful conversation and learned so much about Lisbon, Sintra, and Cascais from Lisa’s knowledge. She made sure we were comfortable, safe, and had a wonderful experience. She also directed us to a GREAT restaurant for lunch in Cascais, right on the water, with fresh food, lovely wait staff, and incredible views, which made the whole experience. Would recommend this tour and Lisa to any travelers looking to book! Thanks for a great day, Lisa!

The best day ever! Our guide, Marta, was excellent! The entire day really was a dream! Marta provided us a running commentary everywhere we went, she knew so much, it was a treasure of a day! The stop at the ocean was just stunning, and lunch at Nortada was our favorite in all of Portugal. If you’re thinking about going to Sintra I highly recommend booking this tour. Sintra is extremely difficult to drive around and navigate unless you’re a local, Marta was such a pro. Thank you for a priceless experience!!

We enjoyed the tour so much. Our tour guide (Anait) is very friendly and welcoming. She is knowledgable about the history of the places we went to. We were given enough time to appreciate each venue. In the end, it felt like we were going at our own pace.
