Reviews

Fantastic tour of Sintra
Rick F, 27-09-2022
Our guide, Pedro, with Pipefly Tours, was wonderful. He was deeply knowledgeable about the history and culture of all the places. More importantly, he was incredibly thoughtful, kind and patient. He gave us an exceptional tour, gave us time to explore a bit on our own, and made sure we felt safe and comfortable. We highly recommend this tour for a great introduction to Sinatra and the surrounding area.
Great tour, helpful tour guide and fun experience!

Rui was absolutely amazing and was very thorough with his tour. In the middle, he took us to a very typical Portuguese restaurant that was incredible. Overall, he was very kind, knowledgeable and helpful throughout the excursion. If you have the option, certainly do the tour with Rui!
Amazing Sintra/Cascais Tour!

We booked the small group tour with Pipefly and Pedro was very responsive and helpful in answering my inquiries. For all the tour stops, he would walk with us and tell us interesting stories. For both Pena Palace and Quinta de Regaleira, his walking tour takes us to some stops off the main touristy sections too which we would have never found on our own. For lunch, he even took us to a local cafe which we really enjoyed :) He even bought us local snacks to try and gave us ginjinha to try at the end of the tour.

I would definitely recommend this tour and Pedro to anyone wanting to make their Sintra/Cascais tour memorable!
Wonderful site, grate guide!

Our guide, Pedro was outstanding!! He explained everything clearly and vividly, stood in line for us at several sites, so we could explore the area while he waited in line and held our place (it was Easter week, long lines, lots of people).
Sintra is beautiful, and this trip was well worth the money. Highly recommend it!!
Beautiful Sintra

My 2 friends and I visited Portugal on our Christmas vacation for 3days. On one of those days we decided to visit Sintra. We took a train there and was greeted with pouring rains haha. They do say Sintra has a mini climate of it's own. Now to be honest I don't think we had a well thought out plan of what we were going to visit in Sintra or how we were going to get about. In our heads we thought we would walk. But later we realized that was totally unrealistic. As we walked out the train station, and trying to figure out our plan of action, a man asked if we needed any assistance and was showing us the different things to do in Sintra. I think ideally we'd have ignored and Gone about trying to do things on our own but with the pouring rain, we knew we wouldn't be able to get about on our own. So, we listened to what he was offering, which was
Pena Palace, Historic centre for lunch,
Quinta de regaleira, Cabo da roca and made the quick decision of going along with the tour. It was 30 euro a person.

The tour itself was lovely. Pedro drove us to the various locations in his van and would talk to us and give us a bit of the history. He would go into the various monuments and locations and walk with us. Our own private tour. Was very special. Walking about these places alone, I wouldn't have learnt or understood as much about the history. It was nice having someone to ask questions and to get such great responses also. And just to add, if you're picture savy girls like us, Pedro takes great pics
