Pedro was fantastic, we were so lucky to have him as our tour guide today to Sintra & Cascais! He is incredibly knowledgeable and shares his love of Portugal. A truly wonderful day/experience… from the moment he picked us up to drop off and everything in between. Great trip and delicious wine tasting topped it off!

We had a great day with Pedro Alves our French speaking guide of the day. We will have wonderful memories of this day. The day trip passed very quickly and Pedro mastered his subject. If we come back for another excursion I hope he's still here.

We had a truely amazing day with George. Picked up at 9 and headed to Cascais, George was a walking Wikipedia with his knowledge of both historic and fun facts. Both Cascais and Sintra are gorgeous and no better way to travel than in a bright yellow Land Rover. We went off road to some beautiful coastline which you couldn’t do on any other tour. Highly highly recommend we had the BEST day and huge thanks to George for making it so memorable!

We booked a tour as a family with two teenage girls and had an amazing day in the Sintra area. Our tour guide, Pedro, was exceptionally well-prepared. Not only did he know a lot about the area, but he also made sure we had the best experience throughout the day. If you're not a port wine lover, don't worry—the tapas will make it enjoyable. We had a great day—thanks, Pedro!

PAULA is a jewel. We had a special pilgrimage to make (Boca de Inferno), and we won the lottery with her as our tour guide. From the moment we met her, she welcomed us, she laughed with us; we felt in the company of a friend. Each time she learned something new about us, she seemed to find a way to enhance the experience with the information. I’m blown away by her 4x4 skills! We covered a lot of gorgeous, diverse terrain. Lunch with a stunning view at RESTAURANTE NORTADA was world class. Can’t wait to return there. CARLOS, another gem, blew us away with his brilliant presentation of vintage port wines. This is how one should explore Portugal. Highly recommend!
