“Wonderful trip to Sintra & the nearby coast”

We worked with Nuno to tailor a tour to our liking for a day from Lisboa to Sintra and back along the coast. He speaks fluent English, has a good sense of humor and possesses strong knowledge of the area and the monuments. There was a train strike that day and he expertly maneuvered heavier than average traffic, allowing us to visit the famed Pena Palace (must see, but go early as we did) and the beautiful grounds and palace of Regaleira in Sintra. He also recommended a wonderful seaside restaurant for us to have a leisurely lunch of fresh fish. We passed through Cascais but did not spend time there and had no regrets about our choice to dine elsewhere. Nuno's communication prior to arrival was excellent with prompt responses to every query from our group of 6. We thank him for a fabulous day and highly recommend Nuno for your next visit to Portugal.

“An Amazing Day in Lisbon with Paula!”

We spent a fantastic day exploring Lisbon with our guide, Paula, and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She made sure we saw all the major sights on our list—and even added in a few hidden gems we didn’t know we were missing! Navigating Lisbon’s steep hills and busy streets can be a challenge, but Paula’s deep knowledge of the city and its traffic patterns made everything smooth and stress-free. She knew exactly where to go, when to go, and how to get us in and out of spots efficiently. Her friendly, relaxed style combined with expert-level local insight really elevated the day. If you’re visiting Lisbon, do yourself a favor and book a day with Paula—you’ll see more, stress less, and come away with memories you’ll never forget.

“Day Tour: Defensive Lines of Torres Vedras ”

Henrique was an excellent guide and host for our day trip. He was knowlegeable and informative and we learned so much about the general history of Portugal in addition to the specific history of the lines of Torres Vedras and the Peninsular War. Henrique tailored the tour to meet the specific interests of my husband so that we visited Wellington's headquarters, making the day even better than we had anticipated, and a special birthday treat. We thoroughly recommend Henrique and his tours if you are visiting Portugal.

Hello Carol and Bill Thank you very much for your kind and rewarding review on our tour " The Defensive Lines of Torres Vedras - Wellington vs Napoleon - the Peninsular War in Portugal". I was delighted to accompany you on this visit and I want you to know how stimulating and challenging it was for me to hear of your curiosity and interest in learning more and more about Portugal's history, particularly with regard to its links with England, which went far beyond the Peninsular War. As I think that Portugal still has much more to surprise you, particularly with regard to the Napoleonic wars and the presence of the Duke of Wellington, I hope that one of these days we can meet again. All the best to you, Caroll and Bill! Thank you very much! Henrique
