Like being taken on a private tour by a family friend - Bruno was the best private guide we have ever had. He was upbeat, joyful, and genuinely excited to share his hometown with us. Pena Palace was a highlight and Bruno navigated it and us perfectly. He knew to book the first tickets of the day to get ahead of the crowds, took us to the best spots for photos, and helped us maximize the experience by sharing stories of the palace’s history, and how the royal family affected the evolution of Portugal and its culture. Next he drove us into his hometown of Sintra and left us to wander on our own. We had wonderful pastries and browsed in the touristy shops. It was very crowded as it’s still high season but the city is beautiful. Bruno gave us two suggestions for lunch and the one we chose was delicious and in a spectacular setting. Next, he let us wander the beautiful upscale beach community of Cascais. On our return to Lisbon he offered wonderful, personalized suggestions of how to maximize our last day in the city. I would recommend Bruno to anyone looking for an educational, memorable private tour.

Wow…what a great tour day with Bruno! - A tour of Sintra with Bruno is a must!!! You cannot go to Sintra and not go with Bruno. We had the best day on our vacation thanks to him! He is soooo knowledgeable and knows all the local spots for lunch, coffee, some yummy ginjinha shots and even some delicious local pão com chouriço yum! He even knows where alllllll the bathrooms are ;) We started with a tour guide but ended with a friend for life. I would recommend tours with Bruno to everyone. Wish I could give more than 5 stars!

Bruno is the BEST! - My family of four loved everything about our tour. Here are the reasons I think Bruno is the best: 1. Excellent communication from when I booked- recommending when to purchase tickets to get the right entry time to Pena Palace and then sending a reminder text. 2. Communication and reminders before the trip to include current weather and reminders to bring layers. 3. Very comfortable minivan with panoramic roof. 4. Well designed route with wonderful commentary throughout the drive, tour of the palace, and specific details about what sites to see at both stops in the towns. Bruno catered our experience to our preferences to include dining- giving excellent snack and lunch suggestions. We particularly enjoyed our lunch in Cascais at the Albatroz. 5. My son is a birder and Bruno went out of his way at several stops and within our route back to Lisbon to try to accommodate all that he could see. 6. Most important reason- Bruno's charming, warm, and inviting personality. He engaged each one of us in lively discussion and gave colorful and fascinating background on his hometown of Sintra. His pride and love of Portugal is infectious. Our hugs goodbye were heartfelt. Bruno is the best!

Don’t Miss This Lisbon Travel Experience! - We highly recommend Bruno and Dreamscape Lisbon Tours. We booked this not-to-be-missed travel experience online in advance of our arrival in Lisbon. Bruno communicated extremely well prior to the start of our tour and was prompt on his arrival at our hotel. We saw everything that we could have ever expected to see of Sintra, the Pena Palace, and Cascais and missed the crowds too! Bruno treated us like members of his family. He was informative, conversational, extremely interesting, knowledgeable flexible and most importantly, kind and attentive to our needs. The day flew by and before we knew it, it was time to return to our hotel. We can’t recommend Bruno and Dreamscape Lisbon Tours highly enough. Thanks Bruno!

Wonderful day in Sintra - We had an exceptional day in Sintra with Bruno. His knowledge of the area and its’ history is without equal. More importantly the way he delivers this information is perfectly paced and natural/conversational. If you are looking for a wonderful day in Sintra with a guide, look no further than Bruno

Book with Bruno for an incredible Portugal experience - Our day trip with Bruno was fantastic! Words really cannot describe how much my family enjoyed the day. Bruno’s knowledge is incredible, we all learned so much. We would absolutely do another tour with Bruno, and cannot recommend him enough! He is such a kind person, and my whole family truly loved spending the day with him. The sites we visited were beautiful, rich in history, and again, I cannot describe how much knowledge Bruno has to share. He was able to answer every single question we had and we loved learning more about Portugal’s history .Booking a tour with him is the best decision you can make on your trip to Portugal! I can honestly say this is the best tour that I have done (and we are frequent travellers).

Great Experience - We went on this tour in April. We had a great time.. Our tour guide Bruno was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable about the area and the history of the palace. He left plenty of time for us to explore on our own and gave us great recommendations for sight seeing and dining. We would highly recommend this tour.
