An authentic experience with a top guide! - I had a great experience with Nuno, our guide. He knew perfectly the best spots to enjoy incredible views and was very kind. Thanks to him, we discovered beautiful places and were able to enjoy exciting anecdotes told by a real local. An authentic experience that I recommend to everyone!

Excellent experience with SintraLovers - Hi, I will leave my review about the tour we did with my friends with the company Sintra Lovers. We had the pleasure of sharing the day with Nuno, our guide. It was an amazing day, it took us along all the roads and corners of sintra, the palaces and castles. We also recommended a restaurant for lunch as directed. Thank Nuno for all his patience and dedication towards us, I would definitely choose them again because it is 100% worth hiring your services. (I leave some pictures that we took with the camera of some places of sintra)

BEST TOUR IN SINTRA - Nuno was the best guide we could have found. The whole tour was amazing, a lot of knowledge of Sintra, and Cascéis (it fulfilled all the items on my list ordered) all the "must see" and "do". It was a very personalized tuour and in Spanish (a super plus for my family). Places visited: Pena Palace, Quinta da Regaleira, Monserrate Palace, Colares, Cabo da Roca, Boca del Inferno, Cascaís, Estoril, Belem Tower, Restorers Square, Jerónimos Monastery. I recommend them 10 out of 10!!! Muito Obrigada Nuno!

An incredible tour to the “Mountain of the Moon” - This was an absolutely fantastic and magical experience. It was a long day, but worth it! Our guide (Nuno) was amazing! He was so knowledgeable and shared so much history and information with us! We absolutely loved it and would book again in a heartbeat (we’ve actually already recommend this to 2 of our other friends who are traveling to Portugal). There is a lot of walking, so be prepared!

Nuno was the Absolute Best Guide! - As an American, I have not opened What's App in nearly a year. Today I did, and realized I have never left a review for our tour with Nuno in March of 2024 and we had such a wonderful time that I knew I had to come here to write one. My wife and two young daughters had a wonderful excursion with Nuno, who was not only a local of the area with an extensive knowledge of the history of the area but also a unique insight into the importance of travel and experiencing other cultures from his time as an international student. Not only were the Pena Palace and the Masonic gardens incredibly beautiful, but Nuno was extremely accommodating of all our requests and it was such a pleasure speaking with him about his native country and our combined experiences around the world. I've never had a better guide and would book another tour if I ever get back to Lisbon, and I hope I do!

Wonderful whole-day tour to Cascais with surrounding beaches and cliffs and the beautiful town of Sintra with magical Pena Palac - This was a wonderful whole-day tour to Cascais with surrounding beaches and cliffs and the beautiful town of Sintra with magical Pena Palace. Our guide Diogo was our host for the whole day. He introduced the local culture, history, and since he is a local from Sintra he also told us many stories related to Lisbon and Portugal in general. Such a warm and kind person! I highly reccomend this trip to anyone visiting Lisbona, Cascais or Sintra!

Take the private tour to Sintra and Cascais - Diogo Nunes is the best! We were on a private tour. He gave us as much time as needed. Being that he is from Sintra he knows the area like the back of his hand! Made for a great excursion. Took us to a local restaurant for lunch and had the best cod fish! They treated us to patties and port on the house. It’s a very long day if you include Pena Palace but well worth it
