Amazing Sintra Tour for Couples!

Husband and I had an amazing time! André was a wonderful tour guide and extremely knowledgeable. We loved the itinerary of the tour and moments he let us explore freely. It was a plus that we were only a group of 6, so we enjoyed getting to learn about our other companions. I appreciated that this experience came with the entry tickets included to Pena and Regaleira already so we didn’t have to worry about that. Comfortable ride to Sintra and back. We walked up some steep roads, so comfortable shoes are definitely a must!! Overall we had so much fun and would highly recommend.

Beyond awesome!

João and Thomas curate an amazingly engaging and fun experience to match a wide range of interest and abilities. It was a great day filled with stories, dad jokes, food, snacks, kayaking, snorkeling, cave exploring and general food hearted outdoor fun. So much so that our teen declared this as the “best day ever!”. I would highly reccomend them and we will most definitely be coming back to this if we ever travel to portugal again! João - If you are reading this, much gratitude for welcoming us to your home and for a great experience. And like i said, paragliding next. Try it,,,you will be hooked! :-)

Arrabida and Sesimbra Small-Group Day Trip from Lisbon with Wine Tasting

Winesky_P, Jul 2026

Best experience

We had an absolutely fantastic experience! Our winery guide, Juan, was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about the local wines and the region’s history. Every stop was thoughtfully planned, and we never felt rushed. The recommendations were excellent, and we discovered some amazing wines we would have never found on our own. The guide’s enthusiasm, professionalism, and attention to detail made the entire day memorable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an authentic and enjoyable winery experience. It was truly one of the highlights of our trip!

Kayak and Snorkeling Adventure in Lisbon

Jaycee_T, Jul 2026

Amazing Guide and Perfect Itinerary

Amazing experience and great vibes as a small group! Our guide, Denis, was super chill but also knowledgeable, helpful, and accommodating. Even the car ride there was a great time getting to know the rest of the group. It's great that Denis was there to take all the photos with his GoPro so you don't need to bring anything onto the kayak. The tour is very well structured with a good variety of activities without tiring you out too much. Snorkelling finds were pretty good - saw big jellyfish and an octopus, don't expect amazing coral reefs. As someone who can't swim, I still had an amazing time (with a life vest) and built the courage to do the cliff jump! Some warnings: the water very cold, and do bring your own lunch/snacks since options otherwise are limited.

Lisbon SL Benfica Stadium and Museum Tour with Scarf

Excellent experience

Easy directions to pick up tickets. You are able to enter the stadium at the point of pick up. Wish the turf field was accessible during our visit to access. All staff that we encountered were helpful and friendly. Food at the snack bar, not included, was very good and perfect ending for a 2 hr experience. Our son loved the scarf and magnet received.

Worth Every Step: A Wonderful Portugal Experience

We had a wonderful full-day tour of Portugal, and our guide, Joao Gomes, made the experience even better. He was relaxed, friendly, and made everyone feel comfortable from the start. Pickup was easy, yellow shirt can’t miss. The tour includes quite a bit of walking, including cobblestone streets, hills, and an uphill walk (or short hike for some) to castles. A few people in our group weren't fully prepared for the walking (flip flops or sandals with heals) but Joao did an excellent job supporting them while also keeping the rest of the group on schedule. He balanced everyone's needs with patience and professionalism. We had a nice amount of free time to explore on our own, for lunch, drinks and snacks, and the schedule offered enough flexibility without feeling rushed, but enough time for lunch and drink/coffee. It really is a full-day tour, but it was worth every minute, no regrets! A few tips for future travelers: Wear comfortable walking shoes. Stretch your legs before the tour, you'll appreciate it! Bring a water bottle, although there are plenty of opportunities to buy drinks along the way. Bring some cash, as a few smaller shops during free time are cash-only, though many places accept credit cards. If you have any walking or mobility limitations, contact the tour company before booking. Portugal is beautiful, but it can be hot, hilly, and full of stairs and cobblestone streets. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and I highly recommend this tour. Thank you, Joao, for making it such a memorable day! To the person reading this from BOOST TOURS.. please tell Joao Hey, we appreciate you, made the day great “We Got You” “Not Tourists, but Visitors” Jillian & Juston

A highly recommended snorkelling adventure

A great experience for three generations of our family. The crew and staff were both knowledgeable and friendly.

Afonso was the best guide ever. This excursion was one of my favorites the entire trip. We got to know so many cool people from our group, and Afonso kept us engaged and safe the entire way. The beach was insanely beautiful and Afonso packed everything we needed. Our driver was also really cool. Highly recommend this experience.

Sintra, Pena Palace, Cabo Roca, Cascais Small Group from Lisbon

Alan_L, May 2026

Brava

Our guide was very good at all that she had her hands full of that day. The day began for all 8 of us with the surprise of having to share what we expected would be an all English tour with a group of 6 from Brazil. Wow! At first I thought it was a stroke of luck for her, only to find out much later in the day just have difficult languages can be. She was awesome. Brava to her linguistic "chops". She quite easily spoke in Brazilian Portuguese AND English for the entire time. She obviously knows a lot about her country and we were blessed to have her company for the day. We finished our day truly enlightened by the new things that we learned about Portugal.

Sintra, Pena, Regaleira, Roca & Cascais Tour with Pick up

Rosemary_F, Apr 2026

Sintra, Cabo da roca and Pena palace tour

This was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Cascais is a charming beachfront town, offering a delightful selection of eateries and shops. Our second stop, Cabo da Roca, was truly exhilarating—its dramatic ocean views and iconic lighthouse provided stunning photo opportunities. Our tour guide, Vasco, was personable and highly knowledgeable, offering valuable insights into the history of each location as well as Portugal’s political and monarchical past. Sintra, our next destination, was enchanting—rustic, mystical, and full of character. We were given ample time to explore at our own pace and enjoy lunch at a local establishment, which enhanced the overall experience. The final stop at Pena Palace was breathtaking. The palace itself resembles a fairy-tale castle, surrounded by beautifully maintained grounds filled with diverse trees, flowers, and vegetation. Visitors should be prepared for a moderately challenging 20-minute uphill walk to the entrance; however, shuttle options are available for convenience. Overall, this tour was well-paced, informative, and memorable. A sincere thank you to Vasco for being such an outstanding host and guide.
