Sintra and Cascais with side trips to the beaches. - We enjoyed our tour and tour guide to Sintra and Cascais. He was accommodating and shared rich history and customs. We saw Pena Palace, different beaches and an incredible lunch at a beautiful seaside restaurant.

Highly recommend this Sintra tour!! - My friend & I had the pleasure of exploring Sintra and Cascais with A. Jorge! He was an incredible tour guide - very informative & personable! He made our first visit to Lisbon very memorable. He helped explain every aspect of the tour and provided us with additional information about Portugal. A. Jorge was so welcoming and we got to know him very quickly! We highly recommend this tour & A. Jorge! You won’t regret it :)

Sintra and Cascais - The tour was wonderful! Fortunately for us, there were only 2 couples on the tour and we made fast friends with the other couple! Paulo was a great guide, and he was a fount of knowledge regarding the places we visited. Be SURE to buy your tickets for Pena Palace in advance so that you can visit the interior of the palace. We had the tickets but the other couple was only able to visit the exterior (they forgot to buy tickets in advance). I highly recommend this tour.

Sintra and Cascais, very worth it!!! - I really like small group tours that go in a van. It is very personal, and the driver, Paolo, was amazing. So much knowledge, and you can tell he really loves his country. SIntra and Cascais and a few other stops is the perfect day trip from Lisbon. The pickup at the hotel was the game changer, it is nice in a new city not to have to figure out where to meet a tour.

Perhaps better on a sunny day… - Going to the most western coast of Europe. Our guide was entertaining and quick witted! It was an overcast, foggy day so unfortunately no views from the castle heights. So many tourists, buses etc. made it hard to enjoy the castle tour.

Small-group tour with too many people - We booked a small-group tour of 4-6 people but we were 9 in a Mercedes van. I was squished between my husband and the driver/guide and on the back were two grandparents, one mother, one aunt and two teenagers. They were not related to us. The grandmother had a bad cold (I tested positive for Covid 5 days later) and not wearing a mask. The guide was good and we saw quite a bit but I will never book a small-group tour with Viator ever again. We spent 167e, plus paid our own tickets to the palace, snacks, lunch and we added tip for the guide. We could have gotten a private tour guide for that price.
