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.

Recommended for a day of touring - Had a very nice day with Guide Gustav. Small group, He could tell a lot about the history of Portugal and the kings. Plenty of time for ourselves to see the town and have lunch. Especially Quinta da Regaleira is beautiful , similar to Parc Guel in Barcelona. Architecture of the buildings typical Portuguese.

Perfection! - This tour was awesome! I learned so much and felt the locations were all worth it. To see 3 beautiful palaces and also time to walk around the town...it was a great day. Augusto knew so much and gave us good info. Tickets to Pena were already reserved for us (you pay the guide for these) and we were one of the first ones in. The other 2 locations, I pre-purchased on my phone on my own. Some people elected not to do Quinta but instead have more time in the town. I really wanted to see the well so had to visit. This tour is one of the only ones that also includes Montserrate. I would recommend this tour. You get an early start to beat the crowds. It was organized and timed well. I had a fantastic day!

Stunning day and stunning photos.

Our trip to Sintra - We visited the Pena Palace and Quinta da Regaleira. Under the sun, the red and yellow color of the palace really shined. The different style of architecture made this palace unique. We explored the secret Infinity Well in Regaleira was an exciting journey. The garden was overall interesting to visit. Our guide also recommended Tascantiga for our lunch in Sintra and the famous Piriguita for pastries. Both places servers our stomach well and ended our trip with an excellent memory.

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
