“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

“Fantastic experience!”
We had the most delightful time with Joana today in Porto! It did not come without its challenges. There was a week long college graduation celebration going on with thousands of visitors yet Joana managed to cater to all of our wants and needs. We had an awesome overview of the beautiful and charming city, visited all of the highlights and important sights, and felt very special and catered to. I highly recommend her and used her dinner recommendation as well!!

Thanks for your kind words and also for our great time during this morning! We could visit many places in Porto, yet having interesting conversations about life in Portugal and in USA. That's always a priviledge, to share some knowledge with travelled people. Even the weather was on our side today, as eventhough many roads were not open, due to the university graduation that was happening in the city, the rain stoped just so we could have Porto on it's best version! And also you could enjoy the colorful tiles around the riverside and downtown. Thanks for being always with great energy and enthusiastic about the places and little stories of each place. Was a true pleasure being your tour guide. Have a lovely rest of your trip in Iberia and all the best! Joana
