- erinmac700 contributionsFantastic 3-day Private TourWe had a fantastic 3-day private tour with Alberto, who took us through Lisbon, to Sintra, Cascais, Evora, Nazare, Obidos, Porto, and a few additional stops. He also included some surprises along the way. He was very knowledgeable and paced the days perfectly. We also had a great experience working with Joana for scheduling our tours. Thank you Alberto and Joana!Written March 7, 2025
- 2winifredl0 contributionsStunning - beyond expectations.4 adults/2 teens. All sites visited were stunning. Susana our guide was friendly, knowlegable and accommodated our interests. This tour was truly beyond expectation and the highlight of our Lisbon visit.Written March 4, 2025
- CMW8110 contributionsRicardo rocks!!!Ricardo was the best tour guide we could have asked for! He met us right outside of our hotel and took us on a full day tour of the most beautiful places we have ever seen. We felt like we saw so much while not feeling rushed! His knowledge on Portuguese history amazed us. He brought us to an amazing restaurant right near the water, highly recommend the sea bass. We were the only foreigners in the restaurant, it felt very authentic. Ricardo really went above and beyond and gave us follow up recommendations for all of the locations in Portugal that we are traveling to.Written March 3, 2025

- 783rjn0 contributionsHad a marvelous time and want to explore outside Lisbon next time.It’s a must visit country and city, it’s out of this world. We love all the top 7 Portuguese food, and probably have an addiction to “pastel de nata”. Can’t wait to comeback here.Written February 20, 2025
- 422bradye0 contributionsCastle Touring at SintraRicardo Domingues was a fantastic tour guide. Not only was he very personable and very funny, but he also was super knowledgeable about the castles at Sintra. He was incredible in his ability to link the most minor detail about something on display to how people lived back then and how life could have been. He was spectacular in his "wow" moments, making my family and I's jaws drop almost every five minutes. I could say no bad thing. He was incredible.Written February 17, 2025
- Susana M0 contributionsExcelente!Everything was fantastic! Excellent visit to the winery with wine tasting! The restaurant recommendation for lunch couldn't have been better, right on the beach! My husband and I loved it! Fabulous team!Written February 17, 2025

Hello Swingo
I would like to praise Susana for her service. Her driving, punctuality, knowledge and above all her attitude willing to help us in any issue was the main factor for our (family of 6 adults and one baby) successful trip to Lisbon. I will recommend your company and especially Susana as the Driver/Guide to any person looking for this kind of service in Lisbon.

The moment we were picked up at our hotel the history tour started. Miguel was amazing and so passionate about his culture. He listened and gave us exactly what we asked for. The palaces we visited were incredible and Miguel gave us interesting and specific details for each site visited. He took us to a fabulously amazing place for lunch that only locals would know about. I can not say enough about this tour. BOOK IT ! Ask for Miguel. You will not be disappointed.

HOla, estoy pensado en contratar el tour Recorrido de día completo por Sintra para grupos pequeños para 4 personas en agosto. Es posible poner en puntos de recogida, la dirección de un hotel que tenga cerca del piso en el que voy a estar alquilada?
