Beautiful day in a beautiful setting. - Our guide Diogo, was fantastic. He gave us a great overview of the history of Sintra but was able to answer our more obscure questions also. He took us to many hidden gems for snacks. We would book this trip again for sure.

Great sightseeing and dining afternoon - Had a very memorable excursion from Lisbon to Sintra and the Portugal Coast. Ana, our personal LRS guide, lived near Sintra and was very knowledgeable and well connected in this region for our day-long adventure. Beginning at our first stop at the Sintra Palace, where we ushered to the front of the line and received the right balance of receiving the details about the palace without overdoing it. She read our interests correctly, as we wanted to experience this unique building with our own eyes while asking questions which she answered. We then stopped in the town of Sintra, where Ana pointed out the highlights and where we also had the freshest spring water, from the town fountain. We then traveled to the coast for a sumptuous lunch with some of the best seafood we had during our entire time in Portugal. On our way back to Lisbon, Ana continued to share fascinating information about the coastal towns and the region.

A great way to discover Sintra and surroundings. - An interesting way to discover Sintra and .surroundings. Our river-guide was on time and gave us a lot of explanation on what we saw. The Pena Castle was a bit crowded and we were lucky to arrive early in the morning. The parc surrounding the Castle if gorgeous. Cabo de Roca was nice to see and we had lunch in a restaurant with a fantastic view on the ocean, but the food and the service could have been better. Cascais is worth to see. I would recommend this tour, but take your lunch in Sintra instead of at the restaurant on the beach. Our driver was very cautious, and we looked her good sens of humor.

Want to visit Sintra for longer - Beautiful tour. Sintra palaces and driving around the coast. Weather was perfect and our tour guide Ana was fun to be with.

Lovely place to visit - Beautiful palace with interesting history. A lot to see. Good organisation of flow and very popular place. Good to go early as long queue build up quickly

Sintra was closed but guide saved the day - We couldn’t go to Sintra because they blocked off tourists from going up to it due to the heat and possibility of a fire, which was super disappointing, but the tour guide was great and provided up with alternatives and we still had a great day

Wonderful day! - We joined a full day private tour of Sintra - Cascais. Unfortunately there was a strike and we were unable to visit Peña Palace. However, Rafael was awesome guide. He made the day go by smoothly and was very friendly, polite, professional and attentive to our wishes, making the tour completely customized to our liking. He always ensured that we didn’t feel rushed and wanted us to relax and enjoy the day. He took care of the tickets and was able to get us into shorter VIP line ups. I especially appreciated the extra effort and patience he took to help me sort out some payment issues with Viator. Rafael is an excellent driver; we felt safe and he managed our time well. Rafael also recommended a wonderful seaside restaurant with a beautiful view where we had a lovely lunch. He is a relatively new guide, so did not have as much knowledge of the history about the different palaces. Nevertheless, we had a great time. Thanks for making our first visit to Portugal a wonderful experience, Rafael!
