Family tour to Sintra, Cascais, and more - Jose was fantastic! He was accommodating from the start, taking us to a convenience store before the tour started when our luggage was lost by the airline. He was entertaining throughout the tour, extremely knowledgeable on every stop, and genuinely passionate about sharing his knowledge and experiences with us. He treated us like friends and tailored the day to us. Fantastic conversations, information, and bonding — and of course great sights in Sintra, Cascais and more!

A must do in Sintra! - This tour was without a doubt the best thing we did in Portugal! Our tour guide, José, was incredible and made the day so special and memorable. Not only did we learn so much about the history at each stop but be he really tailored the flow of the day to suit our interests which added another level to the experience. He was so genuine and such fun to hang out with all day so it felt like hanging out with a friend instead of being guided by a stiff tour guide speaking from a script. This was our favorite day of the our trip! The company was also very easy to work with so I was able to customize the pickup and drop off points along with the specific sites I wanted to see which was very convenient to me!

A wonderful day in Sintra/Cascais and surrounding area - Our trip w Jose was terrific! He was so knowledgeable about the region, its history and places we visited. He provided us also with some unique experiences that were most personal - a wine tasting at a local cooperative, a visit to a unique vineyard and a wonderful lunch experience on the beach. Above all, he was extremely congenial and took great interest in us. The connection w Jose was immediate and one day we hope to travel with him again.

Lisbon Adventure Tour with Jose - We had the most amazing day with our guide, Jose, yesterday! He could not have been kinder or more patient! We first when to Pena Palace. He had already purchased our timed tickets and transfer shuttle. The palace was incredible and the in depth history José shared made it even more meaningful! That man knows his history! He then took us to a winery - the only where the grapes are grown in the sand. Delicious! Then on to a local restaurant where we got to chose our own fish. Delicious! Then a lovely drive to the the western most point of europes mainland. On to the sweet little town of Sintra where Jose took us to his favorite bakery for amazing treats! Yum! Jose is the best! Grab him if you can!

Beautiful private tour with world class guide. - What an excellent tour this was! Jose was the best guide my family and I could have been gifted with. His knowledge and professionalism was unmatched, and his kindness is second to none. I would recommend this tour to anyone seeking a day full of beautiful views, historic insights, and a chance to make a new friend in Portugal. Thank you Jose for a perfect experience.

Epic Tour of Lisbon! - Our "driver" Jose was incredible. He kept referring to himself as nothing more than our driver with jokes, but that couldn't be farther from the truth. Jose took us around Lisbon and adjacent areas, showed us from a locals perspective the best parts of Lisbon, and even took us to some hidden gems! We had to modify our trip due to conflicts, and Jose took his subject matter expert knowledge and without hesitation modified the trip to accommodate our change in schedule. 10/10 would recommend Lisbon on Wheels, and specifically Jose!

A fabulous tour of Pena palace and the coast with wine tasting and lunch. - Wow! Definitely 5/5! We had a fantastic day with Lisbon on Wheels. Our guide, Jose, was truly excellent. He was attentive, informative, humorous and relaxed. He even managed to keep our 14 and 17 year olds engaged all day. We did a trip to the palace, Sintra, wine tasting in Colares, Cabo da Roca and finally Cascais. There were some additional stops off the tourist tracks too, which felt very special. We thoroughly enjoyed our day. Lunch was amazing, especially if you enjoy seafood. Jose even extended the day by a couple of hours, which he discussed and agreed with us. Highly recommend.

Our best tour in Lisbon - Jose is a true gentleman with a wealth of knowledge about his native Portugal and its history. He picked us up promptly at our hotel and became a true friend over the course of our all-day tour from sites in Lisbon, and then to Sintra where we visited the Royal Pena Palace with Jose as our personal guide. He then took us to a wonderful seafood restaurant on the ocean shore before moving on to a wine tasting at a vineyard where Gordon Ramsey had highlighted a new grape growing technique. He had everything planned out to beat the crowds and give my wife and I the best experience of our trip. Would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Lisbon
