What travelers are saying
We were supposed to see the Pena Palace but could not due to wild fires. Not all was lost. We had a great tour of the National Palace in Sintra (ended up being one of my favorite of all time) and we walked around the town, which had some really cute shops. The beach tour and other stops were also interesting. Our tour guide was a wealth of knowledge and a safe driver. Great day.
Good tour. Didn't love where we were taken for lunch. Since we were headed to locations near water, I thought our lunch spot would be at one of them. But our guide was cheerful and also knowledgable. Just wish we could have spent more time in Cascais. SIntra was extremely crowded.
Wonderful day! Excellent tour
Great tour with a wonderful tour guide. Our tour guide Antinio even made us a reservation at a great restaurant with a spectacular view of the ocean. He was very knowledgeable, and friendly. He even sent us recommendations for our next few days in Porto and for our stop in the Algarve later that week. Highly recommend!
This was a great tour. It was rainy so we didn't get to see as much of the coast but still a great tour.
Wonderful tour, beautiful town!! Loved this tour! Full of information !
Amazing tour by project expedition. I actually shared your company with a guest we met at the castle in Sintra. Our tour guide Luis Lobo well educated and e planned all of Portugal’s culture with us. Stopping at all the most beautiful beaches, views to take photos, walk around while getting a historic background. Stopping at shops for wool sweaters, then dropping us off at a local restaurant for an authentic fantastic lunch. Luis even shared his WiFi hot spot with us. Be prepared for a full day we are a good walking show and don’t forget your sunglasses. The day was amazing. I would highly recommend it. We did a one on one tour so it was only the two of us and the driver you pay a little extra but that’s the way we like to go :)
Louis was AMAZING The tour was spectacular! So much history was learned, Our tour guide loves his culture and it showed. Cascais was such a quiet, beautiful town I wish I stayed 2 days in that area. Sintra is a must castle to visit photos do not do it justice a must visit if you are in Lisbon. Made another visit to a good bakery to eat nada ????
