Excellent guide and fun tour of Sintra and Cascais - Miguel was an excellent guide. Very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a great time! The Mouros Castle was fun to explore. Pina Palace was pretty cool (although if we were to do it again, we’d skip the inside and just explore the outside. There was a long, slow moving line to get in and then to go from room to room). Quinta Regaleira was incredible and easily our favorite part of the day. The stops along the coast were great too. Highly recommend this tour

A day in Sintra, a memory for a lifetime! - Our tour for our wedding anniversary was FANTASTIC. Paula was our guide, and she's a treasure. She picked us up in the morning at our hotel, and took us on an unrushed journey of Sintra. We had our list of of must-sees, and Paula filled in the rest. We started at Quinta da Regaleira because we weren't touring the inside of Pena Palace. We got very lucky all day with parking and ended up seeing A LOT more than we bargained for. We made a quick stop for traditional pastries and an espresso. DELICIOUS! Paula was able to guide us to try the best local cafe in town while beating the line that was out the door by the time we were finished. We purchased our tickets for monuments online, but ended up having time to see the Palace of Monserrate, so we easily purchased tickets on-site. Our guide certainly helped us save time by knowing which lines to be in and knowing various people at different monument sites. We had an opportunity to eat lunch in town, and tried a new restaurant that had only been open 12 days! We had the roasted salt cod, pork cheeks, and the steak. The meal outstanding and much needed. Thank you Victor! By the time we checked out even more than expected, we got to experience the mist in the hills around Sintra and Cascais. We had an amazing time on our tour and would definitely use the same operator again when traveling to Portugal. Thank you Paula for a magical day!

Wonderful day - Highly recommended. Interesting contrast between the mountain terrain and the stunning coastline around Quincho made more memorable by the commentary from Miguel our guide. He was excellent.

Best sintra tour - Our driver Esmil was amazing! Funny, kind and so knowledgeable. We were able to see all the monuments and learn a little bit of the history around Sintra too. We wouldn’t have been able to see everything without his expertise, and knowledge of the roads. His directions when we went inside the monuments to where we were to meet him afterwards helped too. Truly an amazing experience!

Fabulous Private Tour of Sintra, Cabo and Cascais!! - Our private tour was amazing. Eduardo was very accommodating with all the arrangements and customizing the itinerary for our group of 11. He was responsive with questions and communications. Jorge and Leo were the BEST guides. They had such passion and stories to share about all the places. They made sure our every need was met and navigated crowds at entrances to ensure our easy access. We always felt assured of everything being coordinated without being overly managed. Highly recommend!!!

Great tours with Paula - Some monuments closed due to fire risk but decided go keep the tour with Paula as I got a good ‘vibe’ from her messages. She created a unique experience seeing the ones we could then exploring the coast and hidden gems that only a knowledgeable local guide could deliver.

Great day in Sintra - Leo was great! Unfortunately, a lot of the monuments were closed today due to fires. He took us to some beautiful spots, especially our lunch location on a beautiful beach. We had a great day and would highly recommend Leo for a tour.

Beach Hopping, Pastry Shops, and Sintra History - Had a great experience with Patrícia. Would easily say she made this trip! With her cool insights on Sintra and Portugal that I didn’t know, to the amazing hidden gems like viewpoints, and pastry shops (best in all of Portugal). She lets you take your time and isn’t ever pushy to finish sooner. 1000% would recommend to anyone even slightly considering it!
