We had a great day tour thanks to our guide Joao! He was a wealth of information and we learned so much of the history behind every stop we made that day. There was only one other person besides me and my husband so it made the tour so personalized. FYI- Pena Palace in Sintra was beautiful but be sure to wear comfortable shoes. There was a lot of uphill walking to get to the palace.

Stop at Sintra lighthouse was a highlight. Would have liked more time in Cascais. Peña palace was too long and much too detailed; impossible to absorb so much detail. Also, never stopped at Estoril, but just drove through it. Would not recommend trip unless the person wanted mainly just the palace.

Sintra was amazing, our guide was excellent and was able to make the history very enjoyable. The trip out to the most western part of Europe was well worth the time.

We absolutely loved Valerio! He was funny and passionate about Portugal and its history. Sintra was absolutely gorgeous….we couldn’t stop taking pictures….we loved the gardens and views from the castle! From there we went to Cabo de Roca. The views there are spectacular! Next we drove along the coast to Cascais, a beautiful resort town where we had lunch and gelato and enjoyed the views of the historic harbor. On our way back to Lisbon, we drove along the coast through Estoril. Finally we stopped at the Monument of Discovery, per our wish. There we learned all about Portugal’s rich history of exploration! Bravo Valerio! We loved you!

Joao, our guide was exceptional and a great conversant. He gave us details that only a local would know eg. what’s best in the area and the like. His recommendations did not disappoint!

Great experience traveling along the coastline surrounding Lisbon. Day capped with a guided tour of Pena Palace- well worth to have a guide explain the many symbols in the palace especially given the crowd late in the afternoon- exploring the town of Sintra and Cascais well worth it. If you have limited time in Lisbon area this one day covers the surrounding area and in a small group you gain knowledge - probably would take two days on your own giving parking challenges- our tour guide very knowledgeable and passionate about the sites of Portugal.
