We had a private driver and tour guide who was fabulous. He knew the history of both Spain and the places we were going to see. It was a completely customized tour. We were going to Sintra and then Obidos. But the day of I asked if we can instead go to Sintra and more of Lisbon. He was completely fine with the switch. He stopped all kinds of places just for the view or he thought we may like to see it. He knew the best place to buy tickets in Sintra for the lines. He talked us into trying some pastry delicacies that are integral to the area. We are not shoppers, but it was sweet how he wanted us to experience Lisbon and try everything it has to offer. He maximized our time in a way no other tour has in the past. Plus, he was simply sharing with us his love for his country, which was genuine. I would recommend this trip to anyone.

This was an excellent tour. Francisco was very knowledgeable, a good driver, and he made an excellent recommendation for lunch. We enjoyed visiting each of the stops on the tour and getting some history from Francisco on the way. The vehicle was very comfortable and it was fun to have WiFi access. This was definitely a highlight of our time in Lisbon.
