Terrific guide - Francisco is an amazing guide. I was fortunate to have him for our trek. Very well educated and knowledgeable on history, geology, environment, culture, and all things Portugal. A very interesting well educated global citizen, he can provide valuable and unique insights making the journey more enriching. Would definitely use him again!

Amazing day trip, many thanks to Flavio - Our day trip from Lisbon to Sintra and Pena Palace was absolutely fantastic, largely thanks to our incredible guide, Flavio. From the start, he brought energy and enthusiasm, setting a perfect tone for the day. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about Portuguese history and culture, which made the whole experience feel both educational and enjoyable.
The journey from Lisbon to Sintra was smooth, and Flavio kept us entertained with interesting facts about the area, the history of Sintra, and some local legends. Sintra itself felt like a step back in time—a magical, charming village surrounded by lush greenery and beautiful architecture. Flavio knew all the best spots for photos and took us to some hidden gems off the beaten path, making the experience even more unique.
Our visit to Pena Palace was the highlight of the trip. Flavio’s insights about the palace’s history, architectural styles, and the lives of the royals who once lived there made the visit come alive. He gave us ample time to explore the vibrant terraces and enjoy the breathtaking views over Sintra and beyond. The palace itself is stunning, but having a guide who could share the stories behind every colorful wall and intricate detail elevated the experience tremendously.
If you’re considering a day trip from Lisbon to Sintra, I highly recommend booking this tour. Flavio expertise, warmth, and dedication to his work make the trip truly unforgettable.

Great day in Sintra and at the westernmost point of Europe - Super nice and fun tour guide who already imparted a lot of knowledge on the route, responded to the wishes of the group, showed the best photo spots and even organized free tapas for everyone on a beach.
The driver was also very nice and took us well and safely to all destinations and then back to town.
All around just a great day with Ricardo, thank you!!!

Great day at Sintra - We enjoyed our trip to Sintra and the hike that followed. We are a family of two adults and two older teens. The pacing was good, the amount of time spent in each location was just right. Pedro was very informative and friendly and really enjoyed showing us his hometown. The views during the hike to the beach were stunning. It was too windy to swim but it was still a beautiful destination. Highly recommend.

Great walk - Rui was a great guide, very informative and friendly. We learned a lot of history on our tour of Sintra and even found a lost dog that we brought back to the owner on our hike. A great experience and would highly recommend for anyone who wants to connect with nature while learning more about Sintra.

Trip to Sintra - We spent a wonderful morning with Joao, who showed us the natural and architectural beauty of Sintra. We move from a walk surrounded by greenery, to a moment of relaxation by the ocean to conclude with an external visit to Pena's palace. Joao proved to be a pleasant companion, prepared and capable of transforming every unexpected event into an opportunity to discover curiosities about Sintra and its surroundings. If you like taking a walk, highly recommended.

Cabo da Roca Lookout and Beach definitely worth the hike!! - The tour of the outside grounds of the palace and the hike to Cabo da Roca were both great. Our guide was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of fun facts along the way. The logistics were a bit chaotic as we were together with another group that was doing the palace and wine tasting and there were a couple of times where we had to wait for our transportation but overall a worthwhile tour.

Cancelled without apology or explanation - Our tour (scheduled for 13 April 2024) was suddenly cancelled at 7pm on the evening before, with no apology or real explanation given. (The email said "unsuitable or dangerous weather", but it was actually a perfectly nice spring day.) They are only reachable by phone until 6pm, so we could not even contact them to ask for an explanation and to inquire if there are any alternative options. We understand that tours might have to be cancelled for various reasons, but in such cases we expect much better communication!
