We had an absolutely wonderful day exploring Sintra with Marco as our guide. He was friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about sharing the history and beauty of Lisbon Marco made the entire experience enjoyable and relaxed, taking us to amazing places and sharing fascinating stories along the way. He was attentive to our needs, patient, and always happy to answer our questions. The trip was perfectly organized, and we couldn't have asked for a better guide. We highly recommend Marco to anyone visiting Sintra. Thank you for an unforgettable day!

From pick up to drop off, the tour was fantastic. Our guide was very professional, knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. Manuel F made our tour experience memorable and enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour with this tour guide.
Excellent tour! Very well taken care of byLucia
I recommend this tour especially our tour guide Manual.
The perfect guide- Marco! The trip was very nice and interesting!
Our guide Marco was the greatest
This was an amazing experience. Our guide. Manuela was fantastic. She was so engaging and informative. Not only did she hive us facts about the sites we went to but also gave us recommendations for additional things we could do during our stay. Enjoying the tour with a small group was the way to go. 10 out of 10 recommend!!!
Manuela was absolutely amazing! She was punctual with pickup, friendly, and informative! She added personal touches to make the tour not so scripted. Manuela gave all of the members of the group suggestions on places to visit or restaurants to eat at while we are on Portugal. She provided water and surprised us with a small treat at the end.
What an enjoyable day trip. Our guide Manuela made the trip she was relaxed, fun & a wealth of knowledge.
Absolutely incredible day tour with Marco. He was a real pleasure to spend the day with. very friendly polite incredibly knowledgeable of all the areas we visited. will definitely recommend to anyone looking for an experienced guide.
Absolutely loved Marco! He was the most engaging and thoughtful guide; pick up/ drop off went as communicated, he was attentive to all of our needs throughout tour, he was informative, funny, accommodating and made the trip go smoothly. The trip along the coast was stunning. The only reason for a 4 instead of 5 was because our tour went about 11 hours which was just too long in a car- I should note, this was not because Marco was off schedule, the travel along the coast was extremely congested the day we went.
Awesome day and Marco our guide was excellent.
Marco was amazing and great to be in the guide and driver . 5 stars to Marco
Great experience - fee was reasonable for the time Length was just right Small group of 8 Staff was great- experienced and. Friendly
Great guide very informative
Manuela was great,she tried to cover all places in time! Highly recommend!
Marco did a real great job to grade up our stay in Lisbon
Excellent, within the parameters of the Lisbon tourist milieu.
It was a food experience to go in this tour with Rodrigo, good atmospher and friendly group
The price was decent and it was a whole day plus the tour guide Manwel was very well knowledgeable and informative and communicated well. He was top notch!! The atmosphere was very fun and exciting 😄.
Such a nice Tour. Our Tourguide Manuel was also very friendly, funny and able to show and explain a lot. There’s also time for yourself.
Our guide Rod was superb. His knowledge on all subjects to do with our trip to Sintra, Peña Palace and Cascais was excellent. He was able to answer all questions relating to the trip and about Portugal, whether current or historical with ease. It was an excellent trip, with Peña Palace being the highlight.
My best experience in Portugal so far. Starting from the hotel pickup and the van to every stop on the way to Cascais then Sintra. Our guide Andrei is one of the best guides and most experienced that I travelled with. Very knowledgeable and attentive to our group needs. He helped with choosing the right ticket fees for the trip. The group size was perfect. The atmosphere was friendly and the weather was amazing in Sintra. We enjoyed this 9 hour tour. It was well organised and managed.
Andre was great! He was professional, funny, had great advice and was well organized.
Great trip with Marco who was very helpful
our tour was very good especially our tour guide rodrigo is the best for this job he was very good and talkative person explained every one of the things thank him so much
Well organised tour with Emanuel, had a lot of fun. Yes, there admission fee to the Pena Castle but you will be informed about it. Keep aside a full day for this experience.
We had a wonderful time together with my wife and 5 other guests. Lucia was very helpful and told us many interesting things about the city and the historical cites. Although it took most of the day, it wasn't exhausting and it was all thanks to Lucia. Would definitely recommend her to friends who visit Lisbon.
Excellent day - wonderful guide Andres
Manuella was an amazing guide! The tour was very interesting, pleasant, and enjoyable from start to finish. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience truly special. Overall, an excellent tour — highly recommended!
Marco was simply an amazing guide. 11 hour day went by fast. Great company as well. He was professional and thorough!
Manuel was the most amazing and patient driver one could ask for. We had a 13 year old a 9 year old and a 9 month old baby. Manuel was able to drive well being peppered with questions from the kids and a baby who was mostly happy but started to lose it at the end. His knowledge base was insane. From historical dates, and names throughout the century, to his understanding of the local flora - he could be a professor! Thank you so much Manuel!
Our guide GONÇALO BICHO was super accommodating, very knowledgeable, great communicator, and an amazing professional. We traveled with 4 ppl 2 adults 1 child and 1 elder and GONÇALO made sure my mother was taken care of and assisted throughout the trip! We're doing a second trip on Monday and hope he's our guide again! Thank you
It was very comfortable in the bus. The guide was very kind and he presented the information in a really interesting way that kept our attention during the visits.
Very informative, friendly, and funny.
The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. The locations we saw were amazing and the recommendations we got from our guide for the rest of our holiday was amazing. I’d highly recommend it. The length was just perfect, and the trip ran on time, which I can’t say for others I’ve done in the past with other operators.
Rodrigo picked us up from our hotel, introduced the other 3 people travelling with us and explained what the plan was. As we travelled he explained things on the way and answered our questions. He had to speak in both English and Spanish. He was very informative and knowledgeable and made our day very enjoyable. We learnt a lot and didn’t have to join the big queue for the palace. Being in a small group made it easier and we had more time to ask questions. Would highly recommend
My hotel recommended this guide. Marco was early to pick up and did a wonderful job of showing us all the sights but still giving us some space to explore. The heat was too much and we were unable to see the Lena palace but he was great at pivoting and showing us another palace, recommending food and cooler options to beat the heat. He made sure we were comfortable and happy. Highly recommend this your to see both local gems and mainstream ones
Guide very knowledgeable and friendly. Top of sintra was closed due to fire risk which was unfortunate but out driver/guide Marco did the best he could and took us to other locations to make up for a problem that wasn't his fault. Would very much recommend, car was comfortable and great air con, lovely scenery and great day out
This tour was an amazing trip back in time to history. Worthy, we had a few walking up hill also, be in shape to walk is a must!
Luis was wonderful and gave a very interesting history.
Our guide Lucia was amazing. She was knowledgeable, smart, funny, patient and kind. I would highly recommend her. The tour was organized perfectly. We had just the right amount of time in the locations that we visited. We had a great day. It was totally worth it.
We had an incredible experience exploring Sintra and Cascais, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing tour guide, Lucia! She was so friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable, making every stop interesting and enjoyable. Her passion for Sintra and Cascais really shined through, and she went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great time. Lucia's warm personality, great sense of humor, and thoughtful recommendations made the tour truly unforgettable. If you're visiting Sintra, I highly recommend taking a tour with Lucia—you'll be in excellent hands!
Lucia is a very, very nice person. We couldn’t have a better guide.
This was the best tour and tour guide I've ever had. Lucia was very personable, knew the history, answered all of our questions and fully accommodated us. We saw so many different things. The tour exceeded my expectations. When I come back to Portugal next year I want Lucia to do my tour again!! Thank you so much🥰💯
Lucia is an amazing guide. She provided a wealth of information in a professional and friendly manner. The trip to the Moorish castle, Peña Palace, westernmost point and Cascáis was well worth the price for the service.
Lucia was absolutely amazing! Patient, friendly, informative. Will rebook next year and request Lucia! Private tour included Moor Castle, Pena Palace, Sintra, Cascáis.
Our full-day private Sintra and Cascais tour from Lisbon with guide Manuel Fernandes exceeded every expectation we had, and I cannot praise him highly enough.
Wonderfull!! Al was perfect!! And luis pape did the best experience !! I recommend him , thanks for all
We did this tour with Marco earlier today and it was a Portugal holiday standout. He’s a fantastic, knowledgable guide and kept everyone in the group engaged and entertained. I’d recommend this tour to anyone interested in learning more about this region of Portugal.
