Solaida_M, Sep 2026

Valerie is fabulous!!!!

Valerie was just an absolutely amazing tour guide — she knows about all the small interesting meaningful details of the Peña palace and regaleira and she even gave us great tips on amazing food and Portuguese pastries to try — she also helped us take amazing selfies and group photos to remember our trip — she was fantastic, engaging, friendly and able to accommodate the needs of everyone in our group. I would recommend her any day of the week and ten times over!!!!

Lisbon Small Group 2h Sunset Sailing- Live Commentary & a Drink

Richard_P, Sep 2026

Wonderful Experience

My family was really looking forward to this tour and it did not disappoint. We had great weather and the evening views from the river at sunset are Incredible. But what made the experience all the more enjoyable were our hosts, Vasco and Luis. A wealth of knowledge, they shared details of all the sites throughout the trip as we enjoyed sipping local wines. I cannot overstate how kind, gracious and welcoming they were. They truly made this tour stand out as one of the most memorable experiences of our two week trip. Highly recommended. Muito obrigado Luis & Vasco!

Lisbon Luxury Sunset Boat Tour with open bar and Alentejo Tasting

Kathryn_R, Aug 2026

Superb sunset cruise

Pablo was an excellent host & tour guide with his slightly humorous delivery & interesting facts given. Beer, water & wine was plenty and topped up constantly throughout the whole 2hr duration. The tasty snacks consisted of good quality meats, cheese & bread in an ample quantity. The boat was easily identifiable from the pictures in the tour advertisement & embarkment was smooth with the helping hand of Pablo ensuring everybody boarded safely & without issue. We sat at the back of the boat near the steering wheel which was raised slightly higher than the front of the boat, the seating was comfortable and blankets were provided for some who got cold towards the end of the tour. As we went up and down the river numerous times this insured that everybody got the opportunity to see both sides of the river both pre-sunset and post sunset so everybody could take lots of pictures with and without illumination. For those who get desperate, there is WC on board however this is rather small. I genuinely do not believe you could get a better value cruise of this standard, there were 14 of us on board and ample room for everybody with spare seats. The small number made for a completely relaxing atmosphere where you could mix with others or simply sit back & chill enjoying the scenery. Thank you for such an enjoyable experience.

Sintra and Cascais Private Tour with Pena Palace Ticket Included

Caroline_K, Aug 2026

The best way to see the Pena Palace and beyond!

A wonderful private tour exploring major sites outside of Lisbon with a welcoming, professional, and very knowledgeable guide! Luis made sure we had a smooth and interesting Pena Palace experience ahead of the crowds, and had excellent recommendations for cafes/restaurants, foods to try, photo ops - and even bathrooms - as well as how to spend our free time in both Sintra and Cascais. Seeing the “end of the world” at Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of Europe was impressive, too. Luis guided us through it all safely in and out of a clean, well-appointed vehicle, pointing out landmarks and buildings through the day. My husband was initially reluctant to do a private tour, but his mind was changed within the first hour into our excursion. You will be provided bottled water, WiFi in the vehicle, and ample time to explore each location, and you will be privately guided through the Pena Palace and grounds at your pace. Wear comfortable shoes and be ready to walk uphill over varied terrain, including steps, inclines, and cobblestones. I would advise you leave the flip flops at home, but you will be comfortable in any clothing so long as you have some traction on your shoes. It was also a nice bonus that we were picked up and dropped off at our hotel. Luis shared the historical significance of all of the locations we visited. I would 100% recommend this tour - and plan to do so for some friends who will visit soon. Enjoy and a big thank you to Luis for a truly enjoyable day!

Worth it!

Awesome experience! A very full day and you may be tired at the end of it but it was so worth it. Our guide Paolo, was fantastic! He filled the day with countless stories and details about all the sites. A great way to see a lot of things around Portugal in a short amount of time, highly recommend!

Lisbon Sunset Sailing with Portuguese Wine and History

Josie_M, Jul 2026

Do not miss this one!!!!

This tour was so lovely. The two gentlemen on the boat were so informative yet not intrusive, when it got a little chilly they had blankets for us. The wine was delicious and plentiful and they even served a little snack. The tour itself was very informative and beautiful. I highly recommend this tour.

Kayak and Snorkeling Adventure in Lisbon

Tara_A, Jul 2026

The highlight of my Portugal trip

Participated as a solo female and absolutely loved it! Felt thoroughly safe (including my belongings, which were kept in a locked van), supported, and entertained from start to finish. Denis was an incredible guide - helped give me the courage to jump from a decently high cliff (cliff jumping was completely optional by the way). Loved the versatile activities from kayaking, cave exploring, cliff jumping, to snorkelling. A trip I will remember for a very long time. I whole-heartedly recommend it, even if you are solo! I’d recommend bringing your own lunch/snacks if you are vegan or vegetarian (or have other dietary requirements), as there aren’t many options to purchase on the beach. Was such a special way to experience Portugal ❤️

Lisbon Exclusive PRIVATE Food Tour with 6 or 10 Tastings

Kristen_M, Jun 2026

Delicious food and great tour!

Elisa was an amazing guide for our 6 tastings foodie tour! She reached out to me several days ahead of time to introduce herself and to make a specific meeting plan. She was very personable and likable, and knowledgeable about the foods and beverages we tasted during the tour. She also added so much to the tour by giving us some history and background of the area as we walked to the different restaurants. And, importantly, the foods were so delicious! I would recommend Elisa and this tour to anyone visiting Lisbon!

Small-Group Templar Tour: Tomar & Almourol from Lisbon

Rose_A, Dec 2025

Incredible Tour. Like Stepping Into the Past!

This tour was absolutely outstanding! We explored so much, and our guide, Rodrigo C., made the entire experience unforgettable. His knowledge of the Knights Templar was fascinating and he brought history to life in a way that truly felt like interacting with the past. The boat ride to Castelo de Almourol was amazing, and throughout the day Rodrigo was incredibly observant, patient, and considerate. He and his colleagues made sure everyone in the group was comfortable and taken care of. Excellent driver as well. More guides should be like him! The pacing of the tour was perfect, giving us plenty of time to savor each moment. Despite the changing weather, we adapted easily and never missed a thing. We saw so much. An extensive, immersive experience from start to finish. Highly recommend Cool Tours. This is our second tour with the company and we definitely want to explore more!
