The tour from hell.

Judy_O, Sep 2023
Disappointed in this tour. We were 2 English speaking tourists with 6 Portuguese speaking tourists. We were told the tour would offer information & descriptions in both languages. But 95% was in Portuguese (I am not exaggerating). There were long conversations with the Portuguese tourists and we felt completely left out. The van was very hot for 9 people and the driver would not turn on the air conditioning. The other 6 tourists were able to sit together but my friend and I were not and not even in the same row of seats. I also feel it’s distracting when tourists answer calls on their cell phone and play loud music. And a safety note, the driver drove far too fast at times. This was the tour from hell, as far as I am concerned.

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Dear Judy, Thank you for your review. I apologize that the tour did not went as expected. Our tours are bilingual, and we always strive for everyone to feel welcome. I am surprised about this, since we have made many bilingual tours the last years, and we never had such feedback. This is a situation we have already revised and talked to our team. I apologize once again, and I hope we can welcome you again soon.

Just an excellent tour! Not the popular tourist route, the region is full of hidden treasures and spectacular view! Plus Leo - a educated, cultivated guide made our time unforgeable! Obrigado! Peter
