Mauro was fantastic, very personable and extremely informative with a deep passion for the history of Siintra. He made us feel very comfortable and answered all our questions. He even returned us back to the hotel rather than the point of pickup as it was late in the evening. Will recommend highly, you will not be disappointed.

We picked this tour from reviews and agree that the guides, Nelson and Lukas, were very knowledgeable. The palace was amazing and beautiful. Our time in the town of Sintra was an added bonus. Would highly recommend if you only have half day to experience. We had extra time and they drove us out to Belem on the way back :-)

Lucas is very...

Robert_P, Apr 2026

Lucas is very knowledgeable about Sintra and the castles in the area. He explained the history, architecture, and historical figures. This is a great tour. Highly recommended

If you come to Lisbon you...

Mackenzie_H, Feb 2026

If you come to Lisbon you must take this tour with Mauro! I have been on tours all over the world and this was one of my favorites because of his knowledge about Portugal! I am so happy we decided to go with a tour vs walking around pena palace on our own. Could not recommend this tour more!

A lovely morning with some beautiful sites!

Helen_B, Dec 2025

Mauro made our morning in Sintra amazing! He was friendly, informative and accommodating throughout. He made nice conversation and was very knowledgeable about the area. We were given water in the car and time to relax and get coffee. The day was adapted to suit the weather and the crowds so we were never queuing for anything. A nice touch at the end was he dropped us off at the market we mentioned we were going to afterwards so we didn't have to make our own way there.

Over the top

Disappointed!

Isabel_R, Nov 2025

Love the company but the tour description was not at all clear. We thought we were going inside the palace with the tickets we had but our tickets were not included for that. We climbed to the palace to only see a church. We traveled from USA to Sintra so excited to see the palace but never saw inside. We were so disappointed and very sad. Loved our tour guide!

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Dear Isabel… I’m very unhappy and I’m in shock after your review ( 1*) In the description is clearly wrote you will visit “ terraces and chapel “ which you can find ; Point 1 / Itinerary Also mentioning about no offering you ginjinha is highly no fair , because our guide offering you but you skipped because you are kosher and vegetarian!!! By your unfair review, our 5* services dropped , where reason of your unhappy is on your side. For further experience with tours I highly recommend for you to read carful description or use contact button with seller to confirm your doubts. Regards Lukasz

Dinted and penna palace

Jane_P, Oct 2025

The guide was courteous and thoughtful having short frequent stops on the way to the top! He was very interesting to listen to and made it a very fun if energetic trip.

Excellent

Aleyda_D, Oct 2025

It’s a place you should go in Portugal and enjoy the view and the weather. Have extra time to enjoy the local food there

Great tour

Loretta_H, Sep 2025

Very nice 1/2 day tour

Christine_G, Sep 2025

Very nice morning/afternoon in Sintra with a tour of the outside of Penna Palace and some downtime in the town of Sintra. If you are interested in a quick tour this is a very nice experience. The guide was very knowledgeable and very proud of her country and provided lots of additional information along the way.

Duarte was an excellent...

Lynn, May 2025

Duarte was an excellent guide who told us so much about Sintra and the Pena Palace. Then we had time to shop or eat in the little village of Sintra. It really is a not to miss experience.

Sintra trip

Cathy_S, Oct 2024

Sintra was a beautiful village, and the palace and surrounding gardens were amazing. Loved the stunning views at Cabo do Roca and a great a dinner in cascais. A very full and fun day. Our tour guide Lucas made the whole trip very enjoyable.
