Amazing Guide, Saw a lot of sights, amazing experienc - this was an amazing tour! Despite unfavorable weather conditions in the morning, the views were beautiful, and we enjoyed everything we saw, and the company was very accommodating! Ivo was very knowledgeable and friendly, and an amazing guide… he knew a lot about the history of Portugal, as well as local places to eat and shop. This was a very convenient excursion, which allowed us to see a lot of of different sites without the stress of booking it ourselves.

Informative and knowledgeable guide, great to see other parts of Portugal. - Ivo our guide was great, he was very knowledgeable and made the tour enjoyable. Even when we couldn’t see the Pena palace he eventually found a way to get us back. We were lucky he offered us a chance to join a smaller group with air conditioning van. The coach we was on was so hot as it was 32c outside and no air conditioning in the coach meant most people on the coach felt hot and sticky. The places we went were great and could easily spent more time at each destination. It was very windy along the coast but at the beach town there was plenty of sun and good seafood. We really enjoyed our tour! Highly recommend this tour but please fix the air conditioning in your coach!

Ivo and Edwardo are legends - Ivo was an amazing tour guide and very knowledgeable about all our stops including where to eat, and spend our free time. Edwardo was also an absolute legend behind the wheel, even going up tight roads it felt fully safe and I would highly recommend anyone visiting Portugal to take the tour
