Personal, Memorable and Esquisite - There are so many reasons as to why you should book this trip: 1) they accomodated changes to our itinerary permitting us to see what we truly wanted to see. 2) The lunch! They arranged a lunch at a top-notch restaurant....oh so good! I still think of the cod dish. 3) and perhaps the best was our guide, Ricardo. Simply a fantastic gentlemen. His knowledge and friendliness was the cherry on top. It is always great to make a new friend!
Thank you for the memories!

Personable, Memorable, and Esquisite - There are so many reasons as to why this trip was wonderful; the tour company accomodated changes in our itinerary permitting us to see what we really wanted to see. They also arranged a lunch at a top-notch restaurant. But our guide, Ricardo, is just a fantastic gentleman. His knowledge and friendliness made our trip. It is always great to make a new friend.

Exceptional service - David was referred to me by a neighbour. We were in touch a few times before our arrival in Portugal and David gave useful information helping us to determine when to do our trip to Sintra.
Next to providing top service for our trip to Sintra, David came to the rescue to organize logistics around our Sintra trip and subsequent transfer to the airport.
He is responsive and the service is superb for a fair price!

Super Tuk Tuk ride to all sights - It was very nice and highly recommended. Our guide Vanda took us to many sights in a tuk tuk and waited for us there. We had lunch with her at a great restaurant. She has a lot of knowledge and is very flexible in how we plan the tour. It was never boring 😀

Great electric tuk tuk driver in Sintra. - We met David on the road, aboard his super electric Tuk Tuk. Indeed, we wanted to avoid the tuk tuk drivers who were a little too aggressive when leaving the station. David showed us Sintra, the best spots to take photos. He advised us on a pastry/tea room and what specialties there were to taste, showed us what there was to see without wasting time. David is really charming and kind. He was very careful on the road and his vehicle is very clean and in perfect condition. I recommend David, go there with your eyes closed!

Must do tour in magical Sintra - Our family had a great tour with David in Sintra. David worked with me to plan out our day in advance. I thought we were going to go to a few of the palaces and I would have been happy, but this tour ended up being much more than that! I can’t imagine trying to figure out how to get around in Sintra without a guide. David provided so much great info on each attraction and made our visit so enjoyable and easy. You can’t see everything in Sintra in a day so we will need to return and will definitely request David again.
We were also able to see some of the beach areas which were beautiful. This was truly a full day tour and well worth the cost. We saw much more in one day than we would have on our own. Sintra is a must visit, make it easy on yourself and hire David so you can maximize your trip and truly enjoy this magical place.

A perfect day trip - My family did a private tour and had a pick up / drop off at our hotel in Lisbon. We went to Sinta and on the way back we stopped at the resort town of Cascais .
Our driver was Ricardo who was very knowledgeable, friendly and very talkative . Everyone in my family enjoyed having him
Sinta was very nice and saw some castles and the palace.
We went to the western most point of Europe and drive down coast seeing all the beautiful beaches and scenery.
Overall l it was great time and would highly recommend this company and be sure to ask for Ricardo as your driver!

Fantastic, family friendly tour - We had read mixed reviews about visiting Sintra and I now understand them. I think to visit on our own would have been very stressful as there is so much to see and the roads are very busy. With Vanda it was a relaxing and fun experience. She was great with our kids (age 5 and 7) and they wanted her to come with us on the rest of our campervan trip! Our kids say 'Vanda is lovely, we want to do the trip again'. We got to see all the main sites as well as things we would never have found on our own. The tuk tuk was loud but fun!
