Lisbon Small Group Shore Excursion: Pena Palace, Sintra, Cascais

Our guide was very pleasant & very knowledgeable. Be prepared to do quite a bit of uphill walking, by doable. Would like to have been able to spend more time in the little town.

Gustavo was an amazing tour guide. He was personal, professional, on time, a great driver, spoke excellent English, and we had lots of laughs. Gustavo, thank you so much for the excellent tour today. We will definitely recommend you if other people come to Lisbon. Some of our shipmates were on another tour and they did not even get to see Cascais at all because of the Ironman event.

This was a great tour. We had a few people in our group that had minor mobility issues and Alex made sure that he was able to accommodate everyone. We got a good overview of Lisbon and the surrounding area. Absolutely a beautiful place to visit!

We had a wonderful expierence with 8 wonder people and exceptional travel guide . Thierry was really helping and good history about the tour

This tour is exceptional!! We would highly recommend this tour....the tour guide (Tierrey) was highly knowledgeable, friendly and made the tour highly enjoyable. Please know that the steps up to Pena Palace are a bit demanding.

We met right across from the cruise terminal in Lisbon. Maria, our guide and driver showed up exactly at 9:30 (not earlier, as there was no parking available on Lisbon streets). there were 9 of us all together including Maria in a large Mercedes SUV. Traffic was bad on the way to Sintra. First she dropped us in the town and we had about 30 minutes to walk around, get a pastry at the famous bakery, shop and take photos of the palace there. She picked us up and we drove up the mountain to the Pena Palace and gardens. The walk to the top was a very steep climb and she arranged the mini bus for the gentleman with a walker. We had time to go into the chapel and around the towers for the view, which is incredible. This is a major tourist site and was extremely crowded, but we didn't have to wait in the lines. Cascais was great for lunch on our own - delicious seafood - we had bacalhau with fresh vegetables. The only complaint I have is that when Maria was talking in the car we could not hear her as there was no microphone. I think we missed the historic and local commentary. Other than that she was great, efficient and gave us fine ideas for restaurants in Cascais.

We had a great day on this tour. Gustavo was on time, gave us great information about the area as we drove from place to place. He gave us time to explore and made helpful suggestions in each of the places we visited. We would definitely recommend this tour

Small group 7 people Sites were beautiful Information was limited of sites and driving along way to sites were limited Communication was good for pick up

Tiago our tour driver was more than excellent in every way . Respectful… Knowledgeable… Friendly… Safe driving . .. We would recommend him to as many people as we possibly can . Paul Erskine.

Our local guide/driver Teirry was very knowledgeable about history of Lisbon, Sintra and Cascais. Along with the sights and tour we tasted food & pastries. Teirry was on time and very personable. Our transportation was very clean & comfortable. Sintra was absolutely amazing!

George was on time awaiting for arrival. Easy directions right actors from port. He was very informative, spoke very good English and a pleasure to spend our day with. He was very accommodating dropping our party off where they wanted to be. His philosophy was this is your time. We were a group of 7. Very personal. Highly recommend. So much better than a large bus tour.

Adelino was a well seasoned guide with a smooth and comfortable delivery. We had a very good experience.

We had a great day in Sintra with Tierry! He was a wealth of information and very accommodating to our needs. I would highly reconditioned this tour with Tierry.

Driver/Guide was excellent. The itinerary included some incredible sights at the palace and westernmost point by the ocean. Loved it all. We could see the meeting piont from the ship. Very easy.

A great day out! Our guide Bruno gave us lots of interesting information. Pena Palace was so worth seeing and also the beautiful beaches of the Portugese Riviera, Cabo Roca and Cascais. Bruno also made our trip relaxing, no rushing and was very considerate to our needs. We really enjoyed it all!

This excursion was truly outstanding. Even though we didn't have time to go inside the Pena Palace, even the outside is something to be seen. We had perfect weather, and our guide was fantastic. He even brought us treats - a typical local pastry that was delicious. We had some time to browse on our own in Sintra prior to going to the Palace. Then we went to Cascais, which was a lovely seaside town.

We enjoyed our shore excursion to Sintra, Pena Palace and Cascais. Tiago not only shared the rich history of the places but also guided us to the best spots for stunning photos and good food recommendations. He is a very good tour guide, very prompt and on time. Thanks

Miguel did a fantastic job of avoiding the crowds and gave us excellent information along the way. Not only that but an excellent photographer as well. He knew exactly where to take the best photos.

Excellent tour. Miguel is a knowledgeable and very responsible guide. Gave us enough free time and also good amount of accompanied time. He is a great photographer too! Got us many family pictures! Would recommend to anyone!

What a wonderful day we had with our guide Gustovo. A visit to Sintra and Cascais is a must do while in Lisbon. I can’t say enough good things about Gustovo. This was by far our best excursion while on our cruise!
