Francisco was a great host for our group. Informative and fun to be with. We learned a lot about the culture as well as history of the area. Maria was an attentive organizer and checked on us along the way!
Sorry for the late responde but thank you so much for the kind review. It was a pleasure showing you around. We hope to welcome you back to Portugal soon. Thank you.
We did this tour with francisco, very helpful person, nice and attentive to customer requests. He speaks Italian and that helped a lot. Highly recommended
Grazie
We just had a small group tour around the palaces and castles of Sintra. Our guide, Maria, was very friendly and knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. She took us around each site, stopped at several viewpoints and then gave us advice on what to see at each site but let us tour the palaces at our own pace. The whole day was tailored for what we were most interested in. Pena Palace and Regaleira are particularly unique and should not be missed! Took us to excellent places for morning coffee and pastries and lunch.
Thank you so much for the kind review. It was a pleasure to tour you around Sintra. Hope to see you again some time. Thank you
Very cool place, which surprises, we liked the whole family and Francisco guided us, informed and played photographer making us have a great day.
Muchas gracias ! Esperamos que vuelvan a Portugal.
We chose both proposed tour options and we were very satisfied also because Francisco (who spoke a decent Italian) in addition to being a friendly and prepared guide, was able to involve us also by proposing an unusual glimpse of the magnificent Cabo da Rocha. In particular, it was fun to stop to give carrots to a cute donkey. Francisco was always available to make additional stops to take pictures and at our request directed us to a couple of non-tourist trattorias in Lisbon where we had a great time. We thank him and recommend him as a great professional.
Grazie
Maria was the most! Amazing to meet Sintra with her. I really recommend it. He also took care to recommend us before, during and after. You know all the details!
Muchas gracias
Francisco is very helpful, he gave us lots of info and he did everything to facilitate us entry to the different places visited in Sintra because there were 6 of us with additional wheelchair. In short, we couldn't find a nicer one! A very nice meeting!!
We were looking for someone who knew Sintra, speaks English, has their own car and has a pleasant personality. We found all of this in Maria. Highly recommended.
Thank you so much for the kind review. Hope to meet you in Portugal again in the future. Wish you all the best.
Maria Fatima is an excellent tour guide. She’s very knowledgeable about Portuguese history and culture. Her explanations were very clear and she patiently answered all of our questions in great detail. She spent about 6 hours with us and drove us to see various beautiful sights including the westernmost point in Europe. Plus, she was very friendly had a great sense of humor.
We had the best day tour of Sintra with Maria. She went above and beyond to make the whole day fun and easy… we saw everything we wanted to see and didn’t have to worry about anything! She is knowledgeable, friendly, and kind. I highly recommend her tours, and will gladly take another tour with her again.
Thank you so much for the kind review.
