BEST tour guide EVER!!

My wife and I have taken numerous tours when traveling abroad. By far, Miguel gave us the best tour guide experience we ever had. Communication, pick up and drop off, pricing, and customization of our personal tour exceeded our expectations. Miguel was passionate, knowledgeable, and excited to share with us his culture. He helped us experience Sintra in a way we would never have otherwise. He truly left us with an immersive experience into the Portuguese culture, and a new found friendship. If you’re wanting a memorable tour, look no further!

Operator response

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It is very rewarding for us that our guests have unforgettable experiences. It is with this goal and motivation that we are here for you. We wish the couple all the best, and the feeling of friendship is mutual! We hope to welcome you again in the future! Our kind regards, BoojieTours
