Wonderful September Tour of Sintra, Cabo da Roco & Cascais - Excellent tour by Paulo for seven of us traveling in Portugal! We enjoy the safe tour, in a clean van with wonderful stories at the sites, best photo points and smooth progress through busy events complete with parking close to the activities! We were thrilled with the tour and so appreciate Paulo's wonderful leadership. Looking forward to our next tour!

Sintra, Cascais and More... - We met Paulo at 9am in Lisbon near our hotel and from the start of the ride to Sintra he was very friendly and knowledgeable about Portuguese history and the castle and coastal points of interest we visited. Paulo speaks Portuguese, English, and Spanish which was very helpful for our group. We also stopped at Cascais toward the end of the tour which is a great beach city. One of our friends got sick and Paulo was very accommodating and waited for us to be ready to head back. We arrived at home around 5pm. It was a great day and very worth the cost.
Thanks for a great day! We would recommend this tour company and Paulo for anyone looking to see the Lisbon area and wanting to learn about the history.
