Fantastic tour company. Tour guide Bart was fantastic. Opt in for the lunch! - Our tour was organized by Marta and Bart was our tour guide. We booked this trip while at home (Canada) and read the on line reviews where we decided to go with this tour company because of the positive reviews. We are SO GLAD we went with this company!! We had a question about the tickets and Marta emailed us with a quick reply. On the day of, Bart picked us up at our hotel in Lisbon. He was pleasant and polite and kind. The large van was brand new with probably only 3500 kms on it. Our group had 8 people (inc. one little baby) so we had one family member sit right beside Bart. There are 9 seats and they were all full (our 8 family members plus the driver). We brought our on car seat but the company had one available if needed. Bart was so knowledgeable and spoke perfect English. He gave us the history of the area and answered any and all of our cultural questions about Portugal. We got the optional lunch and it was amazing. Fantastic food and so much to drink - booze or water or pop. Bart was a great driver. I never felt unsafe at all. This was our first time to Portugal and our first trip while here. Our entire group feels this was a highlight tour for our whole vacation. My wife says Bart was a gentleman. He never swore and was very knowledgeable. There is a fair bit of walking on the tour but on both “castle” portions Bart had us wait and went to get the van so we didn’t have to walk as far. We got lost after walking down the well (Bart had to take our stroller because the guard wouldn’t let us carry the stroller down the well) but Bart found us and showed us the rest of the area. I would 10 out of 10 recommend this company and particularly single out Bart for his excellence. Dave, Vanessa, Brielle, Tyson, Kendra, Cody and baby Ro-Ro

Amazing guide and trip. - Alex was our driver and guide and he was phenomenal ! He was extremely knowledgeable about the areas we visited and the associated history and traditions. All stops were excellent and he gave the group ample time to explore on our own at each site after a brilliant introduction and education. The food break at Sintra and lunch near the shore were delicious, well-advised and satisfying. Alex spent group and individual time with everyone and answered any and all questions with charm and patience. I highly recommend this tour, you will be happy and get an honest and fun familiarity with the culture and history associated with Sintra, Cascais and all the other stops.

Great tour, great guide, lots of walking - Alex was great! Very kind, funny and informative about all the locations we visited. The tour does require a lot of walking, much of it uphill so be prepared! We were able to beat most of the crowds and saw all the highlights. I was a little worried about lunch because sometimes on these tours they take you to a tourist trap but this place was delicious and very affordable for the amount of food and drinks provided. Overall great tour!
