Three Palaces in One Day - Three Sinatra palaces in one day from Lisbon is a lot to pack in, and this tour manages to accomplish it with a break for lunch. Our friendly and multi-talented guide Augusto not only drove us safely, he coordinated all the tickets, and provided historical and local information. Free time is provided at Quinta de Regaleira and Sinatra for lunch, and also at Montserrate Palace. Be prepared for lots of walking, and much of it uphill.

A great tour on September 15th! - Paulo was a great tour guide. His explanations greatly enhanced our experience. Unfortunately we were unable to see the Monserrate Palace due to a shutdown of all sites in the Sintra area because of high temperatures and fire danger. As a result, Paulo took us to Cabo da Roca and Cascais instead.

Highly recommend - I highly recommend them. We liked that despite other tours available in Lisbon, we managed to see Pena early in the morning when it’s less crowded and pleasant to visit. Also, we visited Monserrate which other tours are not including it in their itinerary (really beautiful and underrated). Our tour guide, Paulo, was very friendly, funny, he shared a lot of interesting facts with us and was very engaged with the group. Also he is a very good photographer and singer. Would totally repeat this experience.

Not worth the money - Guide needed more talk, more knowledge of the area. Headsets would have been very handy, a lot of talks are lost. Didn’t know we would have to paid additional money. Another place was visited and felt as a filler, not part of the original tour. Expensive
