OMG what a trip! - We booked this trip not really knowing what it would be like. Well, let me tell you, our group of 8 was hosted by Felipa and she was awesome! She was such a good tour guide, we all loved her. So knowledgeable, so personable, so experienced. If you have an opportunity to do this trip, GO FOR IT!!!

A must do!! - My husband and I were extremely lucky to be the only 2 who booked this tour! We had the tour all to ourselves! Our guide - Nuno - was absolutely amazing!! He is very passionate about his country and showing some of its beauty! He was extremely knowledgeable about history, culture and everything we saw. There was not one question he could not answer!!! When we stopped to eat, he did not direct us to just one spot. He made sure to provide us with several options and left the decision up to us. I would highly recommend this tour!! If you are very lucky, you will get to spend the day with Nuno!!

Great day tour from Lisbon - My husband and I had a wonderful full day tour experience with our fantastic guide Nuno. He was not only knowledgeable about Portuguese history but also passionate about sharing that knowledge and answering any questions we had about Portuguese food, culture, politics, tourism, and the tourism industry generally. He was a delightful traveling companion as well as a terrific guide and we can recommend him highly. The tour itself is fun and a great way to see some of the area around Lisbon.

A great fay trip from Lisbon! - I was looking for a tour that would combine the seaside towns of Estoril and Cascais with Pena Palace. Was happy to have time to walk around both Cascais and Sintra and also to visit Cabo da Roca. Nuno was informative and high-energy. A great day!

Outstanding tour, Outstanding Guide! HIGHLY recommend! - This was an amazing tour and I highly recommend it. Our guide, Nuno, was knowledgeable about EVERYTHING related to Portugal, Lisbon, Sintra, Cascais… not just tour stops but history, culture, symbology, food and more. His whole spirit was joyful and made the excursion that much more wonderful. I would take any tour he is leading, you get so much more than your money’s worth. Sintra and Cascais are must see cities, and even a short visit to each made me want to return for more. Pena Palace was so lovely, and Nuno really took time to share so much information to enhance the experience. Book it, you will love it!

We were not informed... - We were not informed that Castelo da Pena and Cabo da Roca were closed. Even when we decided to buy tickets for the Castle in advance, the platform did not issue any alerts or communications about it.

Okay Tour - This tour was the bare minimum for a tour. The tour guide was okay. There was no microphone in the van so you couldn’t hear what he said. He answered questions but there was absolutely no pro-active stories or information from him. He didn’t even tell us where we were going next. I actually wouldn’t recommend this tour from this company. I could have paid for the 2 Euros for the train ride to the palace and been better off.
