Wonderful day trip

Great guide and a fun experience!

Sylvia was our guide and she was great - really knowledgeable, funny, friendly - and took us to a part of the city we'd not yet visited. It was good to be asked where we'd already explored and if there was somewhere we specifically wanted to go, rather than just following a set route. We'd recommend this tour to anyone, it's a brilliant way to see Lisbon.

Sintra Private Trip from Lisbon Customizable Dreamlike Experience

Victor_H, Oct 2026

Wow! Amazing in depth Sintra experience! Totally worth it!

We really enjoyed our day in Sintra! Antonio was a fantastic guide and managed our time and day superbly. We never felt rushed visiting the many sites included in this tour. The sights we were able to experience included the town of Sintra, the Initiation Well, Pena Palace, Quinta da Regaleira, Cabo da Roca, and Praia Grande. The itinerary of this tour won us over and it did not disappoint! In between stops Antonio spoke the history of many of the places we were visiting. More importantly, Antonio also played some Fado music as we were driving, interpreting the music along the way to help us get a better understanding of some the the cultural themes Fado music often sings about. All in all, this is a great tour if you are looking for a full, in depth experience of the Sintra area. Please remember you can customize your day which is a fantastic opportunity to organize the day to your liking and preferences. It was great not having to coordinate the time and transportation between all the stops. At the end of the tour Antonio brought us back to our hotel in Lisbon. This tour makes your day in Sintra as efficient as possible so you can enjoy your time. Antonio's time management was superb and we never felt rushed at any of the sites. This tour is totally worth it and cant recommend it enough!

Fatima, Nazare, Obidos 8-People Small Group, Day-Tour from Lisbon

RondiWeber_D, Oct 2026

Enjoy the day...

This choice was perfect for us!! We enjoyed our respectful travel companions - lively conversation in the van and always on time for departures. Miguel ( aka Mike, Michael, Big Mike, Little Mike) made the travel times "fly by" with engaging conversation, personal antidotes and of course- the "required knowledge and history" every guide shares. He made us wish we had more time to spend in Portugal and provided us with the incentive to return. The stops and timing were just right for us. The place we chose for lunch in Nazare (Portobellos) was one of several Miguel recommended - and we were NOT disappointed. (We had the grilled red snapper - AMAZING!!!!)

Sintra day trip from Lisbon

We had an excellent tour of Sintra and we were able to customize our day based on our wishes and recommendations from the guide. We loved Sintra and our lunch in beautiful Cascais and a few recommended stops like Cabo do Roca in between. Very comfortable minivan and Pedro was an excellent driver and guide. We had a wonderful day. 5-stars!

A day rich in discoveries

The minibus was on time in front of our accommodation. We were 5 French people (our family) and 3 English speakers. Luis helped us discover the different places with interesting commentary (in both languages!). We really enjoyed this day. We do not regret our choice.

Excellent views and amazing service

Amazing experience, boat was not too crowded, the staff were amazing. I have to mention how considerate the organizers were in accommodating my family and I when an unforeseen delay due to the metro striking made us miss our boat. They fit us into the next one and it was a smooth process. Highly recommend!!

90 Minute Amphibious Sightseeing Tour in Lisbon

Swiatecki, Sep 2026

Very nice tour.

The tour was a quick snapshot of some of the most important monuments and landmarks around Lisbon. Tomas was an incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. He juggled between Portuguese and English which would be very difficult. My kid loved his energy and enthusiasm. Get your cameras out for the transition into the water. Would have liked a bit more warning so we could get it in film.
