“Customized Fatima and Óbidos”
Duarte arrived early and picked family up. Was very patient and was an excellent guide and driver. We removed the Nazare portion and still got back pretty late. Duarte was OK with us modifying our destinations and allowed for extra time where we wanted. He took us to a great restaurant to eat as well! Recommended!
