Highlights
- Sintra - Historic center of Sintra is an ancient and mainly pedestrian village that was founded a thousand years ago.

Here you will have free time for lunch (lunch costs are not included) and to enjoy some famous travesseiros in an old bakery that has existed since 1862 - these are light puff pastries that are turned, rolled and folded seven times and then filled with a delicious cream of egg yolks and almonds and lightly sprinkled with sugar.

Look no further for the best Tour operator! - So many good things to say about the tour. My guide, Pedro, was professional, and friendly, and great information and tips. He took me to all the best spots for photographs in Sintra and Cascais. It was a packed seven hour day and my mind was blown by so much beauty.

Day trip to winery and Azeitao - I had a wonderful day with Pedro! He immediately made me feel welcome and cared for, ensured my planned winery and estate tours went easily and then made amazing recommendations for lunch and an afternoon dessert and aperitif.
He gives insights and information in an entertaining way. He made adjustments based on my interests and needs.
I’m already planning my next tour with him!
Book him. You deserve it.

Multi City 5 Day Tour Custom Built Coastal Cities and Evora Region - Pedro who was our driver for 5 days was so spectacular.Besides being knowledgeable and flexible with your personal interests his cost is well below all the tours .We visited 10 cities Nazare and Penichee and Evora and Sintra and many small villages including Ericeira and Arrolios where the hand made ryhs are made and there is a free castle in the city to see too.We cant say enough and our last day we did a fantastic tuk tuk tour of Lisbon and surrounding areas. We will be back and plan to use Pedro again .We also stayed at Penha Longha Resort which was so great and reasonable as a Ritz property.Pedro met us at the resort each day and was so great .

Brilliant tour, highly recommend - What an amazing tour! We saw so much, the Pena castle is stunning and such a beautiful coastal drive, Cascais is lovely. We had lots of opportunities to take photos, our guide Pedro was a very good photographer! Pedro made the tour for us too with his friendliness, kindness & his jokes. He looked after us so well & shared so much knowledge. He was also very helpful with my mum, not rushing at all, asking us to tell him how we would like the tour to go. I 100% recommend this tour & want to do it all over again!

A great trip. Thanks Pedro! - We had a great time with Pedro. Knowing all the attractions like the back of his hand, he expediently whisked us around in his clean and comfortable car to many great spots, viewpoints, local cafes and shops, skipping a bunch of queues and parts that weren't worth the trouble.
Pedro was very friendly, kind, expedient, and accommodating. He made us laugh a lot and was looking out for us at all times. He was a little light on the history, but he made up for it with fun. He even bought us a shot each!
