Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
" My husband and I had a wonderful tour with Luis, visiting Sintra and Cascais. Luis was incredibly accommodating and knowledgeable about the areas, providing us with fascinating insights into the history and culture of each location. We also appreciated having some free time to explore on our own. His enthusiasm was evident and made the tour engaging. We thoroughly enjoyed the day and appreciated Luis's friendly nature. Thank you, Luis, for a delightful day!" "
"We did a Sintra Jeep tour with Ruben and had an absolutely fabulous day. This was possibly my favorite day of our entire vacation. We loved the combination of experiences that made the day filled to the brim with history, spectacular food, stunning views, and a fun Jeep experience. Ruben was a truly wonderful guide- incredibly knowledgeable about the history, vegetation, and life in this part of Portugal. He struck a perfect balance of casual and laid back yet professional and informative. The lunch was one of our favorite meals of the entire trip as well. We would recommend this tour to anyone and would request Ruben for an extra great day! "
"The highlight of our trip to Lisbon was our day trip to Sintra! It is a magical place and our guide João was amazing! The tour to the Palácio das Regaleiras was so unique! The lunch in Sintra and then the trip to the beaches, everything just stunning! Highly highly recommend! "
"Rita guided our 3 generation family group through a truly amazing day. She has a very warm personality, connected immediately with our grandchildren (9 and 12) and kept them and all of us immersed in the history of the Peña Palace and the playfulness of the gardens of Quinta da Regaleira. "

"We had a great time seeing the Sintra area with Andres. Lunch at Francisco’s house was special and delicious! I’d highly recommend the jeep tour - it’s a great way to see a lot of the area that would be inaccessible with the tour! "
"We thank Silvia for a fantastic day of learning and exploring! The trip was run very well and Silvia was entertaining and informative. We recommend her very highly for any Portugal tour! "
"Silvia was an amazing tour guide. She accommodated our older party, and limited the walking and added other areas instead. She helped us with our luggage and was just incredibly kind. Additionally, she was so knowledgeable about her country and shared so much information. We absolutely can't say enough good about our tour with Silvia."
"Silvia was fantastic. She was very knowledgeable and also very fun to be with. Both are important when you are on an 8-hour tour. She takes her job seriously and knew a lot about every place we visited. We did not ask a question that she did not answer quickly and completely. We would love to tour with her again!"
"We would totally recommend Silvia as she has a wealth of knowledge about the area. She was very accommodating when we became tired and made sure we enjoyed our day. She went out of her way to help us whenever needed. "
"Silvia is an expert guide - knowledgeable, humorous and kind. We strongly recommend her services"
