definetly worth it! beautiful places
Amazing day finishing with a great surf session 😃 highly recommend!
Very nice experience, thanks it was amazing!
Our day trip to Óbidos and Nazaré was one of the highlights of our time in Portugal, and that was entirely thanks to Luís and Francisco. From the very beginning, they made us feel less like tourists and more like friends they were showing around their own country. They struck the perfect balance between sharing fascinating history, local stories, and giving us the space to simply enjoy each place at our own pace. Óbidos was magical, but hearing its stories through Luís and Francisco made it come alive in a completely different way. And Nazaré was unforgettable—not just because of its breathtaking views and incredible waves, but because they shared the traditions, culture, and hidden details you would never discover on your own. What really stood out was how genuine they both were. Their passion for Portugal is contagious, and their kindness, humor, and attention to everyone in the group made the experience feel incredibly personal. If you're considering a tour to Óbidos and Nazaré, don't hesitate. Spending the day with Luís and Francisco is so much more than sightseeing—it's like experiencing Portugal through the eyes of two people who truly love sharing it. Thank you both for such a memorable day. We'll be talking about it for a long time!
An amazing experience. Fun and interesting. Super recommend!!
