Beautiful sites - Rubens was very professional and knowledgeable. We loved Pena palace, Sintra town, Cabo das Rocas and Cascais. Highly recommend it. Palace is very whimsical and beautiful. Recommend you get the transport to the entrance because it is uphill.

Private tour to Sintra with Walkborder tours - We utilized Walkbordwe Tours to book a trip to Sintra during the first week of October. It was so worth it- we visited the main three places in Sintra- Monserrate, Pena palace and the Regaleira- all with the help of Hugo the owner and Alfredo the driver and tour guide. Alfredo was very knowledgeable, professional and super easy to get along with. Before booking, I had many questions and Hugo patiently and professionally answered all of my questions and assisted us. Many thanks to you both!

Excellent tour with built in flexibility tailored to your interests - A really convenient start to the day, picked up right outside our hotel, bang on time, by our tour guide Manuel in a comfortable air conditioned and spacious vehicle. We'd already bought tickets for Pena Palace but hadn't realised how busy that place gets... Manuel got us inside on record time and once there, gave us an impressive tour, pitched just right with pockets of fascinating detail. Clearly, because we'd unknowingly chosen the most busy of the palaces, this cut into the time we had for exploring Sintra and Cascais but we saw everything we wanted to see, and later, Manuel found us a lovely little town with a flea market and a bakery before talking us on an extensive coastal tour with breathtaking views. All the way, he gave us fascinating information, not just about where we were bit also about the Portuguese way of life. Highly recommended!

FANTASTIC - Our driver, Jose was THE BEST!!! He was absolutely amazing. He helped us with all our luggage (6 housewives from the US so it was quite a bit. He led us to and through the entire tax refund process and where we needed to take our bags. It was the least stressful I had been in the airport EVER! Thanks so much Jose!!!!

Visit of Sintra and the others - No matter where in the world you visit, if your Guide is Manual as today for visiting Sintra and others, the day will be more than successful. With Manuel we tasted the soul of Lisbon and its surroundings. I leave Portugal in love with this country. Thanks, Manuel.

Full day private tour of Sintra , Cascais and Estoril - Alfredo was such a wonderful guide. He drove us everywhere on a private tour and came inside wherever we were touring giving detailed explanations of what we were seeing. He took great pictures at each stop to share with our friends and families and have as memories. He was friendly and knowledgable and it was such a magical day and amazing experience.

Terrible experience in a luxury private guided tour that’s mostly failed to meet expected standards for the price - 1. Nice driver is not a tour guide at all 2. Being a private « deluxe » tour at $500 for a couple for a day, they sent an older mercedes mini van for 10 people with stiff seats (and suspension) that don’t recline AND manual transmission. That makes for a rough ride. At this price point you would expect a sedan with automatic transmission. Makes for a very uncomfortable ride for a tour that’s mostly about riding around the area. The operator was completely irresponsible and disconnected from the client. They knew there was a major Iron Man competition and everyone in the business knew that access to Cascais would be compromised and that destination is a major part of the tour. After driving around for one hour trying to reach the restaurant it became evident that it was impossible to continue with this unpleasant tour and we decided to stop it and head back to Lisbon. Ended up asking for 1/2 of our money back through the customer service based in the Orient (which is completely dysfunctional) and we received an email stating that they were sorry that we were not satisfied but essentially to take a hike. These subcontractors don’t care and hide behind the layers of intermediation in the system Trip Advisor is doing a disfavor to consumers by referring us to companies that are irresponsible and don’t care about the satisfaction of the customer.
