      Amazing 3 days with Pedro - best guide we have ever had!
      We were in Portugal for 12 days. The best 3 were the days we spent with Pedro. We started with an amazing all day tour of 2 palaces in the Sintra area followed by a visit to the coastal area near Cascais. Pedro speaks fluent English and is very knowledgeable of this area since he lives there. The highlight of the day was a late lunch at a beautiful seafood restaurant right on the Atlantic. We also did a second all day tour to a nature park and other cities near Lisbon. Our last tour was an all day journey from Porto where he picked us up from our cruise ship to Lisbon with stops in 4 beautiful cities. I cannot say enough about how considerate Pedro is. If we return to Portugal he would certainly be at the top of our list to help us have a memorable vacation

      Fantastic Private Tour of Portugal
      Few words can truly express how accommodating and wonderful Pedro was to our family. Yes, he was also the driver and guide, going beyond the call of duty to take care of every request and need during our Portugal travels. His knowledge and fluent English made everything an exciting adventure. His hotel and restaurant recommendations for Cascais, Porto, and Lisbon were excellent choices. We told Pedro which sights we were interested in and he planned our entire eight day itinerary. When we were in the planning stages, Pedro was always very prompt in responding to our emails and texts and was very organized and professional. He is a gentleman in every sense of the word. We would be thrilled to return to Portugal again and Pedro would be the only person we would ever consider asking to be our tour guide. His kindness helped build fun, lasting memories that will be forever enshrined in our hearts. The best and easiest guided tour we have ever experienced!

      Cannot do better than Sintra and Cascais with Pedro as host!
      Pedro is a terrific guide. He knows all the best routes, knows the sites very well, and shares lots of useful and fun info. He’s a polite and an absolute professional host and is focused on your trip being enjoyable. We were thoroughly impressed with his tour. We immensely enjoyed our time and would highly recommend this tour especially with Pedro as the host. It was the highlight of our time in Portugal!

      Magical day touring Sintra, Cabo da Roca, and Cascais

      Sintra off the beaten path
      Pedro was absolutely the best person to provide a tour of Sintra and Cascais since he grew up in the region. He has seen the changes and shared a very up to date understanding of the National Park's latest residents of horses, while also providing detailed explanations of cork harvesting, the Capuchos monastery and the palace in Monserat. There were many other sites he shared with us once he understood our interests. We saw dinosaur footprints, iconic views of the Atlantic coast, Capuchos living quarters and more. Time spent with Pedro will help anyone understand the history and culture of this part of Portugal. The day was worth every euro. Definitely would recommend Pedro and his tour to others.

      Beyond exceptional
      We literally cannot say enough about Pedro and his incredible knowledge of Portugal! We loved him so much that we booked 3 more days with him. He not only took us to Cascais but to Obidos, Nazare and on to Porto. Then another 2 days over night journey to the magical village of Monsanto and more!!! Our trip was truly exceptional once in a lifetime to never forget. We absolutely fell in love w Pedro! Anyone who wants the best guide, amenable, creative and passionate about life and beautiful Portugal will need a passport and Pedro! He is the best of the best. We miss him already!!! Obrigada!

      Perfect tour with Pedro
      Our family of 8 had a fantastic tour to Sintra with Pedro. Pedro was punctual, charming, knowledgeable and efficient. He was so considerate and accommodating to the different needs of our group, and always with a smile. He has a lot of experience on the most efficient routes to avoid tourists and queues, as well as a wealth of historical information on the sites. We appreciated that he listened to our needs, adjusted the plans to suit us and recommended terrific lunch (and other eating places) from his local knowledge.

      Fantastic tour of Sintra
      Our guide, Pedro, with Pipefly Tours, was wonderful. He was deeply knowledgeable about the history and culture of all the places. More importantly, he was incredibly thoughtful, kind and patient. He gave us an exceptional tour, gave us time to explore a bit on our own, and made sure we felt safe and comfortable. We highly recommend this tour for a great introduction to Sinatra and the surrounding area.

      Exceptional guide!
      Pedro is an excellent guide and I highly recommend him for your tours in Portugal. He is the most courteous and accommodating person to guide the tours and I learned so much from his vast knowledge of Cascais and the surrounding national park area. I will look forward to touring with him again!

      Tour with Pedro!
      Pedro did a fantastic job customizing our tours. We planned to do one tour with him but then added another tour since we liked his touring style and skills so very much. He is very knowledgeable and we learned so much Portugal history. He gave just the right amount of time in each area and gave private family time to explore as well. His prices are extremely reasonable for all the education and areas to explore that he provides in a day. I would most definitely recommend doing a tour with Pedro!

    Great hiking experience with a local guide. He was really knowledgeable having lived here almost all his life, and was able to take us to see various sights, explain the history, as well as go on less known trails we wouldn't have gone without a guide.

    My wife and I vacationed in Cascais earlier this month. It was our first trip to Portugal, and we wanted to see more than the immediate area around our hotel. So we tried this tour of the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, even though we are not regular hikers.

    We had the most wonderful time. Our guide, Pedro, could not have been more kind, informative or helpful. The area we visited was as beautiful as it was peaceful and interesting. We took a TON of pictures. We also peppered Pedro with questions on a myriad of topics and he was very gracious in responding to them all.

    On many tours, there is little flexibility. On this tour, it was all about what would be of most interest to us. Pedro also recognized our limits as hikers, and adjusted the tour to make sure we were comfortable at all times.

    We also enjoyed a nice snack overlooking some beautiful views of the coastline. And on the way back to our hotel, a side trip was provided to see some spots in Cascais that we would never have stumbled upon by ourselves.

    What a wonderful and light-hearted experience. I cannot recommend this tour strongly enough.

    We were so impressed with our experience, that the following day we took another Pipefly tour to Sintra. Ana Lucia is a terrific guide, who ensured that we had a most memorable day touring a castle of the Moors, the amazing Monserrate Palace, and the surrounding environs of Sintra. A full day tour that went by in a beautiful flash. Thank you so much, Ana Lucia!!

    We can only recommend to sign up for this! It's a great way to see the somewhat hidden beauty of the area away from the obvious tourist attractions. Pedro is a very enthusiastic and knowledgable guide with lots of interesting stories and the natural park is just stunning. If you are into NATURE, you won't be disappointed!

    Pickup and drop off, logistics, all according to plan, nothing to complain about.

    We met up with Ana Lucia by accident when we got off the train in Sintra. We did not have any plans when we arrived. Ana Lucia made us feel so comfortable that we decided to take her up on her offer to drive us around. She was very helpful and customized our day for what we were most interested in. Very flexible and accommodating to us. Went above and beyond for us. She was informative and educated us on what we were seeing and admitted when she didn’t know things and offered to look up the answers. The only suggestion I would give is to speak louder as the guest in the back of the van could not hear as well.
