Luis was an excellent driver who gave us the day we wanted. He gave us the time we wanted in each place and never rushed us. He was very concerned about our comfort and always had water available. He stopped when we needed bio-breaks. Would ask for him on our next visit. He wasn’t a tour guide but he knew quite a bit about every area we visited. It was a great experience and with the money.

Itinerary
Experience Fátima, a global pilgrimage hub where the Miracle of the Apparition of Our Lady occurred. Visit shrines and absorb the serene Chapel of Apparitions. In 1917, the Virgin Mary's message of peace resonated here, with the “Miracle of the Sun” witnessed by thousands on October 13th. Fátima holds deep Catholic significance, and you'll even have the chance to visit a religious articles factory to procure blessed items like rosaries.
Explore Batalha Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Portugal's Seven Wonders. This monumental Gothic structure holds immense historical significance and birthed the Manueline style.
Visit Nazaré, famed for its 12th-century shrine and legendary giant waves surfed by McNamara. Don't miss Sítio da Nazaré atop the cliff—the earliest spot where Our Lady was venerated in Portugal.
Explore the medieval beauty of Óbidos and savor the authentic "Ginjinha" liquor. Enclosed within castle walls, this village once owned by Portugal's Queens offers stunning vistas from its elevated walkways and invites you to wander its charming streets.

Our tour was fantastic with Pedro. He was a great guide who knew a lot of history in respect to Portugal. He provided us a lot of time to tour and shop and we never felt rushed. I would highly recommend this tour company. Thanks again Pedro!!
We had a fantastic time with Hugo! He was informative, fun and took time to answer questions and make the tour specifically what we wanted. Fatima was so peaceful and moving, Nazare was breathtaking and Obidos was a perfect little village. Would definitely recommend the sites but also Hugo1
The comfort of a Mercedes van for our family of 6 is exactly what we were looking for. Jao was helpful and informative while spending the day as our guide.
Fatima is a great place to visit , and during scenic is very pretty . We had a great time along the way
Hugo was a delightful guide for a full day tour- he was very knowledgeable about the history of each location and provided valuable last-minute information and advice at each monument. He was very flexible with time spent in each place (more time here, less time there) and he was attentive, courteous and conscientious in his explanations. We would be thrilled for him to be our guide on any other tours we have booked. Fátima and Óbidos were the most interesting, historic and religious, but Navaré was beautiful and a delightful place for a seaside lunch. It was a perfect day.
Excellent service, we were able to see the sights and spend time where we wanted to. Great private tour, Fernando was very knowledgeable, patient and a great ambassador for his country!
This was an all day trip that began from our hotel is Lisbon, and traversed a generous portion of local Portugal, encompassing many notable sights. Our guide Ricardo was knowledgeable, personable, generous, enthusiastic and yet respectful of us and the other couple in our group. We were all impressed at the number of people who connected to Ricardo on the trip, and who obviously held him in high esteem. I really felt that we had enough time in each of our destinations, yet not too much. The car was comfortable and Ricardo was a very competent driver. This brief exposure to Portugal outside of Lisbon is a strong encouragement to return soon, for a longer and more extensive visit.
Outstanding trip. Our driver Luis was a very knowledgeable and respectful man who went out of the way to make out trip a pleasure. From guiding out tour to make recommend shopping and places to eat.
The full day tour is fantastic,worth every minute of the trip! Ricardo,our guide is excellent.He is knowledgeable,professional and attentive to our needs.He also has a good sense of humor and made our tour enjoyable. Reviewed by macrina
Our tour guide, Ricardo is a proud Portuguese man. His pride for his home town, his country, and for his fellow Portuguese people oozes from his very core. He enthusiastically showed us all the main focal points of Fatima, Batalha, Alcobaca, Nazareth and Obidos with such passion, filling our minds with historical facts and myths, some truths and some lies...whichever you prefer. Very thorough and enjoyable full day’s tour.
We did two tours actually, one to Fatima and the other to Pena palace, and the nearby areas. Both the tours were done with Ricardo. The places that we visited were very beautiful, and the entire tour was enhanced by our amazing tour guide Ricardo. Ricardo told us Soo many things about the places we visited, even things that aren't on the web and also some of his own experiences. He showed us the most authentic restaurants where the food was absolutely heavenly. Ricardo's a very friendly guy, and makes sure everyone's having a really good time. He also took us to a palace, which is less frequented by tourists, and we were the only ones there at that time, however, it was the most Grand and beautiful palace we had seen in Portugal, even better than Pena Palace. We would have never visited that place if it wasn't for Ricardo as it's not well advertised on the internet. Ricardo really knows Portugal very well, and if your booking with genuine tours, try to get Ricardo as your tour guide, you won't regret it.
Our guide was FANTASTIC, Richardo took us to the most interesting places and helped us maximize our day. He knew so much and was quick to answer all our questions. He picked us up at the door and made sure we maximized our time. I would go back in a second!
We had a shaky start because the other couple did not show delaying our pick up but once on the road Richards gave us a full day of Portugal history and treasures. He is very passionate,loves his Country and his work. My friend & I enjoyed all the special attention and personal touches down to meeting Luis and the roses from his garden that we have enjoyed for our last day here in Lisbon. Yes we would and I have recommended this tour and Ricardo to others. Obrigado for a wonderful way to experience Portugal. Audra from Indiana
The tour company would not email or call to confirm the pick up at the hotel after multiple email and calls. They finally confirmed the afternoon prior to the date of tour. We had no idea if they were going to come or if they knew which hotel to pick us up. They could at least confirm the hotel and date of pick up prior to the date of the tour and explain they will notify us the pick up time the day before. Also we never visited the Montastery of Alcobaca during our tour. This was in our trip. We should get some kind of refund. I have used your service multiple times and never had a problem like this. Our guide was very good.
We were extremely impressed with the courtesy, sites history knowledge and professionalism of our guide Ricardo Melo. The tour was excellent and we highly recommend this tour and the service from this gentleman and company.
<p>It was a very learning experience. Wish we could have stayed in Fatima a little longer.</p>
<p>Spent a most enjoyable day touring all of the sights with Rod. So much to see and do. Very enjoyable tour. Lunch stop was fantastic. Experienced on of the best meals during our stay in the county at a place Rod took us for lunch. Our day was over way too soon.</p>
Purtroppo tempo non favorevole perchè piovoso. Fatima interessante da un punto di vista religioso. Batahla, Nazarè molto carine e Obidòs visita corta in quanto visitata nel tardo pomeriggio. Sarebbe stata più piacevole vederla durante il giorno.
Excelente Excelente Excelente Joao (el motorista) es un guía maravillosa estamos pensando en llevarlo a España porque es un maquina para tratar con la gente, nos quedamos maravillados así que cuidarlo que vale mucho el chaval.
Guía excelente y muy interesado en que supiéramos todo sobre los lugares que visitamos. Terminamos el tour muy contentas y satisfechas.
Great ride with Riccardo. He picked us up from the hotel and brought us back after the tour to Fatima, good guide and excellent knowledge of the places and very good historian. Besides, not only did he show us around the cathedral, but he also stopped in less touristy areas. The period of late January and during the week is ideal because there is not much influx of tourists. Highly recommended!!
Primeiramente achamos que o tour foi feito em horário tarde 10hs da manhã,mas o guia só chegou as 11hs para nos pegar então já ficamos tensas e chateadas,tentou se desculpar e tentamos relevar,mas no percurso do tour o guia Ricardo só ficava no celular e um tour que gostaríamos de aproveitar bem infelizmente não aproveitamos,Pois o guia realmente não estava bem
<p>Nuestro guia fue fantastico. Hicimos ademas de Fatima, que fue una experiencia especial, Nazareth, Ovidos y Batalha, vale la pena el tiempo y el dinero.</p>
