About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- V3495NYanitap0 contributionsFado dinner experienceI planned the Fado dinner experience for my husband’s birthday which we were celebrating in Lisbon. Our evening started out very nice. Our driver arrived on time and took us for a ride through the city center and to the river. At the restaurant, the service, Fado musicians and food were all great. The reason for only 3 stars is due to the fact that the tour operator “BeDriven” did not coordinate with the restaurant to let them know we paid in advance for the dinner. The restaurant had absolutely no record, even with our confirmation email, event ticket through Trip Advisor/Viator including the booking reference number. Our driver came in to help us and the restaurant deducted a significant portion of our bill. However, the whole ordeal was extremely embarrassing and overshadowed what would have been a very enjoyable evening. I would avoid this particular tour operator in the future and seek out a more reliable one. 5 stars for our driver, venue and musicians, 1 star for the tour operator.Written August 19, 2024

- charliemT433IA0 contributionsTerrible customer serviceThe booked driver wasn't at the meeting point We tried to contact him but he wasn't answering calls, texts or WhatsApps so we joined the normal taxi queue Terrible service - never use them againWritten November 10, 2023

- D7316HLmaryd0 contributionsThey let us down 110%I cannot say anything positive about this company. They cancelled the tour at 5pm the day prior to our scheduled activity and did not give us a way to contact or communicate with them or find another tour. This tour was for 6 people who planned a special day around this tour and BeDriven totally let us down. It was very upsetting and disappointing. As a travel agent, I will never use them again.Written September 25, 2023
- Stay124116736140 contributionsA wonderful day with GustavoGustavo guided us through these beautiful villages and shared the history and significance of these lovely places. Do not be misled by my lack of poetic prose, he wove a narrative of these places and this remarkable country that left me wanting to learn more. As a seasoned traveler, I highly recommend this tour and Gustavo.Written May 18, 2023
- 381patrician0 contributionsTrain strike Lisbon to Porto ongoingTrain strike cancels express trains first without any notice leaving passengers running from platform back to queue at ticket counter with no help or consideration from staff making it impossible to rebook for next train. Use Flixbus or Rede Expressos bus instead, more reliable & cost effective with new bus station in Porto.Written May 6, 2023
- Rita A0 contributionsPerfect culture dayI had a great time doing this tour. The driver was very nice and knowledgeable. the wine tasting was delicious. We were delighted with the tastings, views and the way that the staff did everything to feel like at home.Written March 4, 2023
- Rita A0 contributionsPerfect eveningVery intimist dinner while ear Fado! An amazing evening. The driver was puntually and took us to very nice places before dinner.Written March 4, 2023
- LovealohaFamily0 contributionsWorst experience on our last day during our 2 months stay in Lisbon! Don't use them.WORST AND DON'T USE. We used Viator to get a shuttle from our apartment to Lisbon airport in July and we had a great experience. But for this operator, we booked a reservation and paid at least one week in advance, and kept requesting to confirm a pick up location as we particularly needed to be picked up in front of our apartment since we had several heavy luggages. They did not confirm until the day before for 6:30am pick up, and they insisted that their driver could not come to our apartment despite the fact that another driver could in July. And they still charged us. My understanding is that the operator does not have a certain license when they could not come into some streets. Unless you are staying at hotel on the big street, I would recommend not using this operator.Written September 21, 2022
- 754mariateresag0 contributionsEduardo is a great guideEduardo has lots of patience when it comes to the wine tasting. I found it a little long. Eduardo knows Evora’s history very well and explained it in a wonderful way. Great guide!Written September 16, 2022

- 234idila0 contributionsHORRIBLEDo not bother booking with them because they do not show up. The trip was confirmed and payment was made the day before. When we arrived at the airport no one was waiting for us and they said for whatever reason I was not on the schedule. Very disappointing service. I should have paid more attention to the other reviews.Written July 11, 2022

We did NOT get to go...booked through Viator and Viator cancelled our trip twice. Didn't care one bit! Here is the full story on our Portugal tours through Viator.
A group of 12 went to Portugal and booked various tours through Viator. The first tour to Sintra, Regaleira and Pena Palace went great...had a fantastic tour guide who stayed with us the entire time.
The next tour was a Douro River Boat Trip which was fun, but about 2 hours too long...also the "wine tasting" event was very poor...one small glass of Port and that was it!
The Obidos, Nazare, Batalha & Fatima tour was ok - but the tour guide was a joke. She spoke a little on the bus and then when we got to the places, she did not get off the bus to guide us...we were on our own to figure things out.
The final tour was supposed to be the Templar Knights...Viator cancelled on us the night before we were to fly out. It took our travel agent HOURS to find another tour only for the second tour to be canceled on us the day before the tour. Viator did not care about it at all. Very disappointing.

Everything was very interesting & our guide was very knowlegable of the history. Our group was 4 people & were disappointed to be picked up in a station wagon instead of a van. A little uncomfortable especially driving for over an hour.
