Great trip to Nazare - We had booked a private trip to Nazare and the tour exceeded our expectations. The tour guide Marco was really nice and took good care of our family. We liked the fact that he messaged us one day in advance and communicated clearly what was covered and what was not.so there was no confusion He was flexible with the amount of times spent at various points. He was knowledgeable about why there are big waves in thst area as well as with the history of that area. He was also very thoughtful as he had some snacks in the car for our kids. Overall it was a very memorable experience and we would do it again.

Do not miss this tour to Nazare - Great guide (Marco) and nice mix of history and site seeing of the "not to miss" sites in Nazare. You will want more time, so I recommend booking as much time as possible (a full day is definitely needed) since there is more to see than just the big waves and the town is absolutely beautiful, and restaurants smelled amazing. Easy drive from Lisbon. Pickup from hotel was also a must.

Loved This Nazare Half Day Visit - Marco communicated with me regularly during the planning process of this tour. He picked up our group of six adults at our hotel in Lisbon to head to Nazare. We went first to the historic city center and visited the beautiful cathedral. Marco shared the city’s legends and amazing history throughout our visit. Next we visited several of the famous viewpoints for big waves as he shared his personal experiences of past surfing competitions and giant waves. Marco was a fantastic host and guide. I would definitely book more excursions with him and his company if I am ever in Lisbon again!

Nazaré, the place, beyond Big Waves - Nazere is more than big waves, especially when they are not big that day. The cobblestone, the cliff, the king saved by the miracle from Mary, the shrine, the wine, the underwater trench. Then sacred ground: The big waves board hall of fame. Our guide, Marco, anticipated what we wanted, adjusted for the circumstances, narrated our way through history, in a conversational style that allowed him to be such a great guy.

Fantastic Navarre Experience with Tour Guide Rocco! - We had an amazing tour exploring Navarre’s old town, historic fort, and beautiful beach. Our guide Rocco was exceptionally knowledgeable about the area’s history and culture, sharing fascinating stories that brought the past to life. The drive was luxurious and comfortable, and we truly appreciated the special privilege of being able to drive down closer to the fort...it saved us time and steps! Highly recommend this tour and guide for anyone visiting Navarre!

Personalized Experience - Wonderful personalized experience to Nazaré! It was great to learn about the origins of the town. The story of the shrine was pleasantly unexpected. It was great to learn about the traditions of the fishing village, and the new Big Wave phenomenon. The day was beautiful and the half day tour was perfect thanks to Marco!

Trip to Nazare - Our trip to Nazare was special, made so by Marco's great historical overview of the area and the special nature of the surfers who set records for successful rides on some of the worlds highest and strongest waves. Prior to our visit to Portugal, many of us in the family wanted to see what we had often read about. Marco gave us that opportunity with a vibrant walk around the town and onto the cliffs to view the site of so many great surfing events. It was a long drive and the one suggestion I would have is to possibly swap out our visit to the dried fish beach for lunch at the medieval Roman city that we passed on the way to Nazare.
