Great tour with great tour guide, Filipa - Our tour guide, Filipa Borges, made the entire trip most memorable. She's knowledgeable, engaging, energetic, funny and her voice projects very well. Only wish that there was more time to spend at each stop.

Don’t miss Sintra and Pena Palace! - Nuno was an excellent guide! So knowledgeable! He was also very kind in accommodating my walking difficulties and I had no trouble. In retrospect if I had known about how steep the trek was, I would have brought my knee brace. Nuno made it perfect! Sintra and Pena Palace is not to be missed! The history and architectural styles are wonderful to see! What an amazing place!

Sinatra with Nounou - Sinatra and Pena Palace are lovely even if over popular leading to unavoidable road delays. Company is everything and the fact we were in a group of 6 made it extra special. Nounou was very informative and a passionate patriot. His knowledge was impressive and brought the tour to life. The walking isn’t for the faint hearted so please consider this to be fair to your fellow travellers. We were fortunate but I can imagine how the trip would have been negative had we not been able to move at the pace we did. It’s a long day so make sure you have plenty to drink and maybe a snack as we didn’t get to stop for lunch until around 4pm. There are facilities at Pena but we had the preferred option of going back to Sinatra where the recommended restaurant was excellent.

Fantastic Day Trip - We had an amazing day enjoying the historical and natural beauty of Portugal. Our guide was knowledgeable, courteous and helpful, giving us the right mix of information and time to explore independently. The hotel drop off made this tour especially convenient. It was one of the best tours we had and I would highly recommend it!

Day trip to Cascais, Sintra and surrounding area - The tour was great, beautiful Portuguese history and incredible views. Be prepared to walk a bit to get to the castle but it’s worth it. Our guide Nuno was amazing, he is very knowledgeable about the local history, took his time to explain all the places we stopped at and made the trip fun and enjoyable.
