Awesome Knows his stuff Very helpful with limited walking ability Great time Enjoyed hearing about family Everyone enjoyed it
We had a fabulous time on this private tour. Luis is a terrific guide and very knowledgeable about his country’s history. I’m addition to the planned stops, he took us to a cool little miniature village which depicts all the different areas of Portugal and a wonderful traditional seafood restaurant in Nazare’. He also got us a private tour of a store just outside the walls of Obidos that makes their own Ginja. I highly recommend this tour to anyone that wants to cover a lot of ground outside Lisbon. It was a very full day with a lot of great memories made. Tony G. Sun Lakes, AZ
