Great tour but weather inhibited seeing Cascais - Loved our guide. So knowledgeable and interesting to listen to. It was so unfortunate that the weather was SO rainy and foggy. I am quite disappointed that we weren’t able to see and enjoy Cascais. Can’t control the weather, though.

Wonderful - We had a great time visiting Pena Palace, Sintra and Cascais as well as touring all around the seaside coast. We learned so much about Portuguese history and life in Portugal.

Thank you to Noono and around Lisbon tours - One of the best tours I’ve been on. All due to our knowledgeable and helpful guide. An absolute pleasure. The views were fantastic and learning the history of the Sintra and the surrounding area made this the perfect introduction to Lisbon. I can’t imagine a visit without such an engaging guide. Thanks so much. Noono!

Very enjoyable day. - Excellent tour to Cover Sintra area. João was a great guide (informative, helpful, upbeat and fun). Sintra is best seen with a guide due to complicated grounds. Highly recommend this tour!

Sintra day trip. - The tour was very good, however, I was disappointed we did not see the Quinta da Regaleira Tour driver was very passionate about Lisbon and Sintra.

Very long, but saw some good sights. - Nice tour. Sintra is awesome, and definitely worth a visit. Our guide Thiago was excellent. Very friendly and informative, and I appreciated that he gave us all a bottle of water. Be prepared for a good hike up to the palace in Sintra. My biggest disappointment, though, was the stop for lunch. It's in a small town that is not worth visiting, and it took too much time. I would've rather spent that time in Cascais, which is a beautiful resort town on the coast.
