Awesome Tour and Guide

Leisha_P, May 2026

Our local guide/driver Teirry was very knowledgeable about history of Lisbon, Sintra and Cascais. Along with the sights and tour we tasted food & pastries. Teirry was on time and very personable. Our transportation was very clean & comfortable. Sintra was absolutely amazing!

Go local- they know the people.

George was on time awaiting for arrival. Easy directions right actors from port. He was very informative, spoke very good English and a pleasure to spend our day with. He was very accommodating dropping our party off where they wanted to be. His philosophy was this is your time. We were a group of 7. Very personal. Highly recommend. So much better than a large bus tour.

Amazing Sintra and Cascais

Linda_B, Nov 2025

This excursion was truly outstanding. Even though we didn't have time to go inside the Pena Palace, even the outside is something to be seen. We had perfect weather, and our guide was fantastic. He even brought us treats - a typical local pastry that was delicious. We had some time to browse on our own in Sintra prior to going to the Palace. Then we went to Cascais, which was a lovely seaside town.

We enjoyed our shore...

We enjoyed our shore excursion to Sintra, Pena Palace and Cascais. Tiago not only shared the rich history of the places but also guided us to the best spots for stunning photos and good food recommendations. He is a very good tour guide, very prompt and on time. Thanks
