Sergey is a fantastic guide! His enthusiasm was wonderful. He's organized, considerate, and knowledgeable. He even took everyone's pictures at all the sites. We thoroughly enjoyed the day with Sergey.al
Dimas was an outstanding guide, timekeeper and trainer who was knowledgeable about trivia for each location.
Sergey was driving well. Really great story and history teller! Amazing! Would go anytime with him again!
Good day with Sergey with many insights!
Sergey was an informative and attentive guide. He gave plenty of time at the beautiful attractions and rest stops and lunch stop. Convenient pick up and drop off and a comfortable vehicle. Would definitely recommend Sergey and the Sintra tour as a day well spent when visiting Lisbon
Sergei, our guide was perfect and so polite. He helped always during the tour and explained lots of information.
Although there was some confusion about the port times for our ship, Celebrity Xcel, on October 15, our guide, Dimas, took it in stride and made the day work for the time. Dimas was absolutely amazing in his planning, knowledge, support, and kindness.
Very nice tour. We had a wonderful guide. He managed both historical todays facts including fun facts. And made us feel part of the group. All destinations was nice, and we had common information before we had a little time on our own at each stop.
Everything went really well! Dimas was amazing! Before we started, he took the time to ask where we wanted to go and helped plan the route to make sure we had enough time to get back to the cruise port. There were six of us from different groups, but he made sure everyone was happy with the plan. He was super friendly, listened to what we wanted, and explained everything really well. He knew all the shortcuts and even ran to the parking lot to pick us up so we wouldn't have to walk too far. We really appreciated that! I'm so glad we booked this tour! I would definitely recommend this tour to my friends and family if they ever visit Lisbon. Thank you so much, Dimas! You're the best!
We absolutely loved this tour. Our guide, Dumitru was very engaging and knowledgeable. We had a great time. The only drawback was that the four other people on this tour were from a cruise ship and had to be back by 6.30pm. Not their fault but we would have loved more time especially at our last stop. Perhaps consideration could be given to separating those that have more time from those that are on a tight schedule!
Today’s trip was great. We visited 5 scenic spots, and the tour guide gave patient explanations.
Sergey is an awesome tour guide. He was patient, gentle, and a great problem solver. Our van broke down and he quickly found us transportation to the next destination and met us again to continue the tour. Pena Palace is impressive and Cascais, beautiful. Quinta de Regalería was my favorite with beautiful grounds and a peaceful garden.
One of the best experiences ever. Our guide, Dumas, was outstanding in knowledge & so friendly. We had such a wonderful day. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Best guide I’ve ever had and I’ve had many
I was excited about this trip and it did not disappoint. Stops in Cascais, Boca do Inferno and Roca Cape were so interesting and Sergey was very knowledgeable about the geology and history of the area. The hike up to Pena Palace was steeper than I expected but the stroll up to Quinta de Regaleira was easier. Our guide Sergey is kind, full of interesting stories and facts and an excellent guide. Well worth the cost!
Picked up on time by a very friendly man Dimas who took us to the transport. He explained the itinerary for the day and options of entry to palace and gardens etc. He was very knowledgeable about everything and took time to answer any questions asked of our group which was made up of a family of 4 and another English couple took photos with our camera at best view points gave recommendations for restaurants but not pushing. All in all a great day spent with a lovely guy would recommend this trip
Excellent tour and the guide Dimas was very knowledgeable of the history and had a very good command of the English language. He gets an A+ rating.
Dimas our tour guide was very thorough explaining the history and he was very knowledgeable about the tour. He was very pleasant, friendly and helpful throughout the day. Nice guy to spend the day with. I would recommend this tour to all my friends and family.
Lovely day in Sintra-Cascais Loved the castle. It was so amazing. And so high up!!!!
Sergey was very attentive and responsive.. He told us in detail about all the landmarks he showed us and answered all our questions. We are very satisfied and highly recommend this excursion.
Sergey, was an amazing guide. Went above and beyond drop off and pick up points. Which I was very grateful for. Had plenty of time to explore.
Sintra becomes pure magic with Dimas, an exceptionally cheerful and charismatic guide. His kind energy and informative storytelling bring fairytale palaces to life, turning an incredible day trip into an unforgettable, deeply engaging and seamless Portuguese adventure.
Sergey is an excellent guide, with lots of information and a great personality. The only downside was the pacing. I recommend skipping either Cascais or the Boca so more time could be spent in Sintra. We had to practically run through the last site there.
We were so lucky to have Dimas as our guide. He provided wonderful hospitality and shared his extensive knowledge and experience with us throughout the tour. Thank you so much for waiting in line for us under the scorching sun at the entrance to the Sintra palace until it was time for us to enter. We really appreciated your thoughtfulness and dedication! If you’re joining this tour, I highly recommend asking for Dimas. You’ll be in very good hands!
We had an incredible day exploring Sintra, Cascais, and the surrounding areas with Sergey as our guide and driver. From start to finish, he was enthusiastic, engaged, and full of energy, which made the entire experience so much more enjoyable. Sergey struck the perfect balance with his commentary, providing just the right amount of historical context to keep us interested and engaged throughout the day without ever feeling overwhelmed. It was clear he is passionate about what he does, and his knowledge really brought the history of the region to life. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a seamless and memorable way to see these beautiful locations. A huge thank you to Sergey for such a wonderful day!
A must-do tour if you have a couple of days in Lisbon! You cover a lot of ground without getting worn out. Sergey was such a warm, helpful, and insightful guide. Thanks for a wonderful experience!
This tour was amazing and Sergejs did an amazing job, told a lot of interesting stories and jugled between english and russian very well. Amazing tour☀️
The highlight of the trip was our guide, Dimas, who was especially knowledgeable and personable. We visited Cascais, Boca de inferno, Cabo da Roca, town of Sintra snd Pena Castle. Dimas was a wealth of knowledge, resourceful, and friendly. He made the entire day worth the experience. We wish all guides were as knowledgeable and fun to be with.
Wonderful day trip from Lisbon to Sintra, via Cascais, Boca do inferno, Cabo da Roca, with tours of Pena Palace and Quinta da Regaleira, with our tour guide Sergey. My husband and I, along with our 2 friends, all really enjoyed this tour. We loved the size of the group, only two more people. I struggled trying to choose which tour to take, but this one was the best, $45 per person, pick up from our lodging in an exceptionally clean Mercedes Benz Van, a guide who was well versed in all locations and a good driver. We did have to buy tickets to the castles (an additional $32), but everything was taken care of, we just needed to show up, exactly what you want for this kind or tour. We had a great lunch - good food and price (on own) based on Sergey’s recommendation in Sintra. Highly Recommend!
Great trip would do it again. Sergey was a great tour guide and very attentive. He was very also knowledgeable. I would take another tour with Sergey
It was really lovely and informative. Dimas,our guide was super helpful and made everything really easy and fun
The tour was excellent. Our guide Dimas was suberb! He was so informative, friendly and helped make all the stops comfortable for all the couples. He also helped us take a number of pictures, and allowed us to make decisions about what to do and where to go.
Amazing experience with seeing all sorts of different palaces and monuments and cities around Lisbon. Sergey, our tour guide was super duper helpful and had incredible information of stories of each place we visited. Great sense of humour and very nice guy to do the tour with, highly recommend!!

We had an amazing time on our tour! Our guide was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. He explained everything so clearly and made the tour both interesting and enjoyable. He was very attentive, patient, and made sure we had a great experience throughout the day. Thanks to Sergey, we discovered the beauty and history of Sintra in the best possible way.

Demas (Dimas) was an absolutely excellent tour guide. I have traveled all around the world and I have never ever experienced a tour guide as excellent as he was. Everyone on the Tours agreed even people that I didn't know that he was fantastic and adds great benefit to the Tours. I cannot highly recommend this Tours and him as a tour guide, enough. Absolutely wonderful experience
There is a lot of walking on hilly, rough uneven surfaces. Sergey K was our guide and he was the best!!!! Very caring and friendly guy! Stopped for lunch at a great restaurant Sergey recommended! It’s a long day, but we saw a lot! Couldn’t have asked for a better guide!!!
Dima is not only incredibly knowledgeable and professional, but truly passionate about Portugal and its history. He has a wonderful way of making everything easy to understand, with great stories, quotes, and just the right amount of humor. He listen to our preferences and made adjustments to make us all happy with the plan. But what really made our experience special was Dima himself - warm, welcoming, naturally tactful, and simply a pleasure to spend time with. He was fantastic with our 11-year-old daughter, and incredibly accommodating and thoughtful with a member of our group with limited mobility. A brilliant guide and an even better person! Highly recommended - 5 stars, and probably a few extra for patience! 😊
Such a wonderful experience! The tour was fantastic, and our guide Dimas was amazing- so patient, helpful, and kind throughout the entire journey. We had the best time and would 100% recommend this tour to everyone!
Sergei is an absolutely brilliant guide and a wonderful person. His incredible local knowledge of Cascais, Sintra and the magnificent Pena Palace brought the whole experience to life. He shared so many fascinating stories and insights that made our visit truly special. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Sergei and could not recommend him highly enough. If you’re visiting this beautiful part of Portugal, having Sergei as your guide will make the experience even more memorable!
Sergey is a wonderful guide that was on time, efficient and showed us Sintra (and more) through a fairytale- like storytelling. He is a wonderful person, excellent photographer and a fantastic guide. Definitely recommend.

In summary the total experience was EXCELLENT, Dimas/Demitri our tour guide was very knowledgeable of his craft. He was fluent in english, knows very well the history of the places we visited and even entertained some of our petty questions. He was very respectful, kind and helpful.
