We were slightly hesitant to book our tours in Portugal with a small, private tour company not as well known as the larger tour operators we used in the past. We decided to take a chance on Van Go Tourism based on positive reviews by other travelers. We were NOT disappointed! As part of the planning process, Margarida knew we were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and kindly suggested we modify our “walking” tour of Lisbon to a walking tour with transport which we did. We truly appreciated her insight and perceptiveness in helping us plan our itinerary as first- time, older visitors to Lisbon. She was always quick to respond to our questions and concerns. The half-day tour of Lisbon was incredible with Nuno as our guide, driver, and magician … his perfect parking into the tiniest space kept us entertained in the back seat. His talent was also enjoyed by a group of tourists on the street watching Nuno maneuver out of the tightest parking space with minimal effort to which we heard them exclaim “That was awesome!” That is the best way to summarize our first half day tour with Nuno … simply AWESOME!
