Highlight of our 2 weeks in Portugal - At age 74, I came to Portugal with my family in March 2024 to connect with the land of my Azorean grandparents — and to talk to someone who could explain the country to me. Tour guide Sandra Pestana of No Map Tours checked both boxes. Above all, she’s a superb guide with an encyclopedic knowledge of — and love for — Portuguese history. We learned so much from her during our trip to the Queluz National Palace and the National Palace of Mafra. Equally important, she’s witty, fun, and dedicated to her clients’ comfort. She recommended a wonderful seafood place on the ocean at Ericeira for our lunch. And she never rushed us. Best of all, she was patient and candid with this old Portuguese man from America who had so many questions about his heritage. Our afternoon with Sandra was magical! -David Oliveria

Great Day with Sandra - We had an excellent tour of the palaces in Sintra with Sandra. Sandra is an excellent guide who balances letting you explore along with her deep knowledge of the locations. I'll also give mention to her incredibly comfortable car which made the journey between locations very relaxed.
