Best Sintra experience - Ana was prefect knowledgeable, grade 100 in history and managed to keep us in listening mode all the time. She adjusted herself to my walking disability and did all she could to have a 7H experience of this immovable tour. Just perfect.

She was very knowledgeable, funny and friendly. She did not make us feel rushed at all. Ana asked us about our preference for lunch and it took us to a beautiful restaurant on Guincho Beach. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Peña Palace with a Great Guide - Ana did a fantastic job on this tour. Traffic was crazy as was the parking situation. She was very good at overcoming both situations. She also did an excellent job of guiding us through the Peña Palace with just the right amount of detail. When I signed up this tour, I thought we were going to do a self-guided tour. Her guidance and storytelling was great and before we knew it, we had gone through the entire place, including the walk along the wall with great views. She took us to a nice ocean front restaurant as well. She was never lost for words and kept us entertained. I strongly recommend her if you have a choice.

Best Full Day Private Tour with Ana - We had the pleasure of spending the day with Ana on a private tour of Sintra, Pena Palace, Cascais, Roca and the stunning Mouros Castle — and it was truly unforgettable. From the very beginning, Ana was in constant communication, making sure every detail was perfectly planned. Her bubbly and personable nature made us feel instantly comfortable and welcomed. Ana is incredibly knowledgeable about the history, culture, and hidden gems of Sintra, Cascais, and the surrounding areas. She was responsive to every question and offered insights that truly brought the sites to life. One of the highlights was our incredible lunch at Mar do Guincho, which she thoughtfully recommended — the food, the view, and the experience were top-notch. Thank you, Ana, for such a wonderful day. We’re recommending you to everyone we know!

Sintra - David was a great driver, extremely knowledgeable and gave us ample time to eat and explore. Sintra village was very small so not much to see, however the castle and the Pena Palace were fascinating. Lots of walking on stone paths. Rain made it slippery at times. We had intense fog so we were unable to have the views we had hoped for. We booked the full day tour. Our beachside drive home was lovely!!

Private Tour Sintra, Pena palace - Ana, our tour guide, was disappointing relative to all of our other Viator experiences as she provided very limited information and participation in the tour. She spent all of our time with her personal and family life experiences and absolutely no questioning in our backgrounds or interests in this tour. She also spent much of our time policing other tourists not involved in our private tour. Would not recommend this guide, but the sites were worth seeing.
