Susana was an excellent... - Susana was an excellent tour guide.!!! We had such a wonderful trip to three historical sites. She was personable, informative, and kind. She is a professional tour guide with a wealth of interesting details about the history of her country. We highly recommend Susana. She does personal guided tours to variety of places in Portugal so there are many options to choose. We wish we had time to do more travels with Susana.

Sintra Tour - Definitely recommend Van Go Tourism. All details of our visit to Sintra were planned perfectly and the day was flawless. Nuno was our guide and he was so fun and informative. We had no worries about anything. Nuno kept us motivated and moving, lots of steps and walking. Sintra and the Moorish castle, Peña Palace and Quinta da Regaleira were all beautiful!! We 10 star recommend!!!!
Thank you so much

Best travel company - Today we finished a multi-day itinerary in Portugal and we are very satisfied with the performance of the company Van Go Tourism, from the design of the program, communication with the reservations department, to the execution of the tours throughout the country, passing through all the places in the our preference and also adding some time to this program for shopping and visiting football stadiums, trying to please all members of our family. The guide always tried to give us family time for meals, shortened waiting times and adapted to our choices without any problems. Their Vans were always clean, immaculate and smelling good.

Touring Portugal with Van Go! - We (couples) had a wonderful experience in the last week of August this year with both Susana & Margrida right from the very beginning of our contact till the tours execution.
I was very happy with Margrida’s prompt responses and suggestions during the initial stages of planning of our 3 full-day tours outside Lisboa. We were notified of the slight modification with sufficient time on hand and thankfully were able to adjust accordingly.
We had a great experience touring for those 3 days with Susana, our charming delightful and knowledgeable guide. She was flexible with our pickup timing for our first day tour( the 3 UNESCO World Heritage Sites) as we had landed the previous evening after a long journey. Everything went smoothly despite the few times I had to slow down my walking pace( I do have a knee issue) and it didn’t lead to any skipping of sites that were scheduled for the day! Fortunately, we managed it all on time.
My husband & I had a fantastic time at all our 3 tours (day1 - 3 monasteries; day2 - Evora & day3- Coimbra). We were supplied with sufficient portable water bottles for all 3 days. The vehicle was in pristine condition.
This was our 3rd time visit to Portugal. With a contented heart and broad smile, we bid farewell to both Susana & Margrida while being dropped off at our hotel. We definitely would recommend their services and when we return next in future, would definitely book them once again.
Obrigada Susana & Margrida for these sweet memories (that will be cherished) and the comfortable service rendered to us. All the very best :)

fabulous - We loved our day with João our very attentive guide who told us the history of the kings of Portugal, the Templars, the Order of Christ, and the Cistercians through the visits of these three fabulous monuments. João knew a multitude of fascinating anecdotes about the history of these monuments. The van was very comfortable, we left at 8am from Lisbon and came back at 7pm. Very nice day with him.
