A Great way to see Sentra - Marta was a great guide. She was knowledgeable and took the time to explain all of the sights. The place for lunch was excellent. We feel like it was a great way to see Sintra

One of the best experiences ever - Our trip started great from the beginning. Filipa, our guide, was wonderful and truly shows a passion for helping others see the beauty in this country, but also the history you probably would never find out about. Nothing but great vibes on the trip, Sintra was so beautiful, and our other stops made us love Portugal even more. If you take a trip with this company, ask for Filipa. If she asks you if you want to see something, or try something put yes in your vocabulary. It's worth it!!

Amazing day with Filipia! - Can’t say enough about how wonderful our day with Filipia was.. Personable and engaging she met us at our hotel promptly at 8:30- throughout the day she shared history of places we saw, and managing time so that we had time to see everything- particularly appreciated as hubby is recovering from surgery and a little slower managing uphill and downhills….thanks so much Filipina and PICTA Travel.

Great guide, beautiful palaces and a wonderful restaurant! - Matheus was the absolute best host - he was friendly and funny, incredibly knowledgable and so easy to talk to. He explained everything clearly and took us to the most beautiful restaurant for lunch. We went to the Quinta de Regaleira and Pena Palace Park and the trip organisers sorted out our entry tickets and we skipped the queues with Matheus. Honestly one of the best days of our trip.

Great Sintra trip! - We had an amazing trip with Danilo and our guide Francisco. They were very accommodating, knowledgeable and friendly. We didn’t choose to customize our trip, but you might want to explore options with Danilo. He speaks perfect English and was easy to communicate w on WhatsApp and email. Our guide, Francisco, a recent college grad, was very knowledgeable about the history and context. He was also very accommodating as far as meals and getting us where we needed to be safely and on time. He was a joy to travel with. Highly recommend!

Delightful Time Exploring Sintra - We really enjoyed being able to explore the palaces and town of Sintra. We were with John and he shared a ton of interesting stories and information with us. He clearly is very experienced with providing tours of Sintra as he knew what would be the best times to visit the different spots. We would have liked to have a bit more time to explore on our own but overall it was a wonderful experience.
