A great tour and tour guide for the experience in Sintra - This private tour was very convenient and the tour guide was very flexible! We got to see tourist sites, as well as amazing beach views, and even stopped by downtown, which surprisingly had more to explore than we thought. The van that the tour guide drove was comfortable and accommodated our family of 7. The tour guide didn’t go into Pena Palace with us and didn’t come with us to downtown, which allowed us freedom to explore the area within a very reasonable time frame. He also recommended a great restaurant that we stopped by for lunch. Overall, the tour guide was very nice and the tour made the day trip to Sintra very easy and stress free, and it was a great experience!

Great excursion and amazing organisation - We are a family of 6 and we booked a private tour with Paulo cos we don't like to share excursion with others and many languages speaking at the same time. And we are so happy with our choice! The places were beautiful, we enjoyed it so much to discover this part of Portugal and our guide Paulo was so friendly, calm and respected our wishes. It was so much better than our last expérience in other countries with a shared van! And the van was clean and so comfortable for 6 adults ( it was even possibility to be 8 persons). For sure, we recommended this tour of Sintra, Pena Palace, and Cascais and especially with Paulo. I will recommend it around me and when we'll be back in beautiful Portugal, we will take again their service. Thanks so much for the amazing memories!

Nice tour day - a little more info / history would have gotten 5 stars - Beautiful sights! Our driver adapted to our hopes (ie to see the Initiation Well, etc) and suggested a great place for lunch. Only missed opportunity, is the driver didn’t have a lot of information on the areas we went to see, was definitely friendly enough and gave some helpful suggestions, but in past tours, the driver has also been a bit of a guide and able to provide some historical context and details. This driver offered up a little less in that respect.
