Great Tour - We did 2 tours with Bruno- a tour of Lisbon and a tour of Sintra, Cascais and Cape Roca.
Bruno helped and guided us about our tours right from the planning stage. He guides you with anything you need to do before your trip.
Bruno is very knowledgeable and shares his love of Portugal with all that he says. He makes you feel comfortable as you enjoy your day with him among these beautiful sites.
He was very considerate of my husband’s mobility issues.
We would highly recommend Bruno for any tour in Portugal.

Birthday Trip to Portugal - I highly recommend BA Tours. Bruno and Amanda were awesome. Prior to my arrival Bruno chatted with me to help me select the best 2 day tour for us. He sent instructions on things I needed to do prior to make things go smoothly. He paired us with the perfect your guide. Amanda was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable and interesting to chat with. She is a safe driver and made sure we had all the water we needed for each day. Had recommendations for places to eat based upon our preferences. She let us go with our flow so we had time to shop. We enjoyed not being part of a larger group so it was tailored to us. After everything they left the door open for us to ask any additional questions during our stay. Great customer service. I will use them again

Best private tour - If you’re looking for a private tour, please consider Bruno Miguel.
4 of us hired him to share Lisbon with us and he did not disappoint. We learned so much about Portugal history.
Bruno has a comfortable way with communicating which makes the time fly by with enjoyable conversation.
Also a very safe driver.
We spent a month in Portugal and utilized various guides and he exceeded our expectations.

Sintra, Obidos & Fatima—our wonderful day with Bruno - We had a perfect day trip yesterday, from Lisbon to Sintra, Óbidos, and Fatima, with the best tour guide, Bruno Miguel! We requested a slight variation from the standard day tour, and from start to finish, Bruno planned a wonderful itinerary for us, taking into account all our wishes for a full day embarking from our hotel in Lisbon. We couldn’t have asked for a more pleasant and joyful experience, with Bruno as driver, historian, and guide—with a healthy measure of fun thrown in to pass the highway time. We highly recommend his services—Bruno is a gem!

Excellent tour guide and fantastic experience. - If you are looking for an excellent tour guide, I cannot recommend Bruno Miguel enough. He made us feel we were not just clients but friends, asking questions about us too so he could understand our needs. His knowledge was impeccable, he was funny, engaging, and was not over the top. We got the optimum experience with him and nothing seemed like it was too much trouble for him even when we requested something different in the moment. He is extremely passionate about his work which makes the experience so much more incredible. Thank you Bruno for an amazing day with you. We look forward to explore more with you in the future.

Sintra to Cascais - Wow!! - Bruno was great to deal with before arrival, on time as promised, comfortable vehicle provided, and he provided a lot of fun in shaping the tour to fit us perfectly. He is a historical wealth of knowledge - we learned so much. From the views, to the history, to the lunch spot he did an amazing job in showing us this piece of Portugal. I would highly recommend Bruno for your next adventure in Portugal.

Family time with Bruno - This trip was a return for me. Bruno guided me 8 years ago. I had the opportunity to return and share the beautiful sites and history of Portugal with my daughters. I wouldn’t think of anyone else to be my guide. I called and he arranged two days of sightseeing. He picked us up from the hotel and spent two days sharing the history and sites. He’s an amazing guide and at the end of your trip he will end up your friend. First class operation five star service!

Amazing 2 day Private Tour! - The Short Version: Look no further, book a tour with Bruno! Seriously one of the best tour guides I have ever come across.Â
The Detailed Version: Bruno helped us plan 2 wonderful days for our family of 14 (ages 10-68) to Sintra, Cascais, Fatima, Nazaré and Óbidos. We had a long list of places we wanted to visit while in Lisbon, and Bruno worked with us to customize two incredible days. He answered all of our questions during the planning, ensuring all needs were met and even providing us with recommendations for the tour and even within Lisbon on our non-tour days, which turned out to be wonderful places we probably would not have found on our own. He also provided us with great restaurant recommendations!Â
Bruno and his colleague Amanda arrived on our first day with two beautiful, well air conditioned vans, that accommodate our large group comfortably. Both Bruno and Amanda were incredibly knowledgeable in the history of Lisbon and all of the places we visited, but moreover they made it fun and engaging! They equally engaged with the kids, teens and adults -- everyone raved about the experience. Their passion for what they do came through each day. While we covered a lot of ground visiting a great number of sites/cities, it was all so relaxed! As an added bonus, Bruno is also a talented photographer and helped capture family photos of our large group!
Bruno provided us with a wonderful, stress free, fun two days in Lisbon. The time we spent with Bruno was like spending time with a friend who is showing you their city they love so much. By the end of the trip, it felt like we had a new family member. The only downside was not being able to take Bruno with us for the rest of our trip up north, but we all agreed, Bruno is our first call on our next visit to Portugal. Thank you Bruno!
