Hello June, Good morning. First of all, I would like to thank you for your kind words, and it is also with great pleasure that I often remember you and your lovely family. I apologize for not responding sooner, but I only returned yesterday from a trip lasting several days... and covering many kilometers. I hope I contributed in the best way possible to ensuring you had an unforgettable vacation, which has now made you true ambassadors for Portugal, in India where you were born and in the US where you developed your careers and families. In the future, when you want to bring your grandchildren here, I will be here to welcome you with open arms. Thank you very much for being the special people that you are. A big kiss and hugs to all of you. All the best Duarte

“A Day To Remember”

My family and I had a great day with Duarte. He is a great conversationalist and extremely courteous and considerate. He planned the tour to my family's specifications and we appreciated his flexibility. You cannot find a more knowledgeable and passionate guide and we would not hesitate to book him again for a future tour in the Lisbon area. Thanks to Duarte for showing us a great time.

Duarte P.

Good morning, Mr Scott. Thank you very much for your kind words, but I must say that the ‘culprit’ behind the wonderful day we spent together was you and your super friendly family. It was indeed a day well spent, one that I will remember. Thank you very much for choosing my services, and I hope to be with you again as soon as you wish. A big hug and kisses to the girls.
