CASCAIS full day Tailor Made
Description
The proper way to visit Cascais & Estoril, a Full day tour! An early seaside destination for Portuguese elite emerging from a fisherman’s village, just like so till the end of the 1800´s. From the 1930s on the unexpected happened as international royals and exiles dramatically changed Cascais, transforming it into Portugal´s Riviera. It’s the time and place for the people escaping persecutions to be safe, and this neutral territory to host the greatest spy the games of World War II. The dark years and cities destroyed in Europe were felt totally differently here, when the majority of the continent had no offer of safety or hospitality. Today it’s a beautiful international 30km stretch of Atlantic coastline capturing worldwide traveler’s and investors, for leisure and business introductions to all of Portugal! While doing this, follow the 1969 movie “007 On Her Majesty's Secret Service” as you will be also touring the birthplace of James Bond, the true area that inspired Ian Fleming.

Wonderful Lisbon a pleasure to spend time seeing the sights and of course sampling the famous Portuguese Custard Tarts over coffee. Then on to Estoril the casino and hotel where Ian Flemings James Bond was invented. Finally to Cascais with its lovely beaches marina quaint Old Town with good selection of restaurants. It’s so important to have a good driver and guide like Nuno of Sophia Tours who takes time to explain the history and culture of these lovely places. I have no hesitation in recommending Sophia Tours for quality care and dedication to the travellers needs. Competitive prices assured for all their private and customised tours
Hello Christine B. , Thank you very much for these reviews, and for giving me the opportunity to join and guide you on your vacation in Portugal.

The history architecture and beauty of Lisbon just took my breath away and it’s so essential to have a good guide with you which I did adding even further interest and knowledge of this great City. So enjoyed our stop at the Portuguese Custard Tart shop in Lisbon to sample these sweet delights with coffee. Next stop The Casino and Spies Hotel in Estoril not to be missed and the story attached to these landmarks of how James Bond was invented well narrated by the guide. Cascais our last stop is full of character breathtaking views.The journey along the coastline was a pleasure with Nuno my driver and guide a very sociable person extremely knowledgeable who is a careful driver in a modern vehicle. I had a fabulous day!
