A must-do when in Portugal! - We’d like to start by saying Hugo was amazing. The tour, the sightseeing and the service were top class! We had a great time at the scuba lesson, and the fish Hugo took us to have was absolutely unbelievable, definitely one of the highlights of our entire trip. To finish off, we had a lovely time learning about the wines in Portugal, and the wine tasting was the cherry on top. Thank you for a wonderful adventure!

Best day of the trip - Best day of the trip and one to remember forever. We asked to do some scuba diving and the team set us up with a nice dive of some shipwrecks in the morning, followed by a perfect lunch at a fresh fish place near the water. The food was incredible. We drove through the mountainside to see ancient ruins and the views of the small towns and ocean. We took pictures but I don’t think we’ll need them, I’ll never forget that coastline. Our tour went to a popular winery with delicious options and good prices. All in all an exception tour of the countryside. Our guide was Phillip who was thoughtful, fun, and accommodating. His presence made our experience somehow even better. I would highly recommend a tour with him to see all the best sites in Sesimbra!

Great, safe family fun with excellent guide - this was the best part of our trip to Portugal. Hugo was an amazing, attentive guide who ensured we didn't miss a thing. Jorge, our dive instructor ensured we were safe, but saw fantastic sea life, and truly got to “scuba”. The teams working together relaxed any timid feelings I had and the guides and instructor made sure we had fun in a way that was supportive. Highly recommended
