Lovely day with Maria
Danusia M, 14-09-2022
We’ve had a perfect day with Maria, our guide. The palace, the town of Sintra, and the other sites we visited on this tour came to live with Maria, who is very knowledgeable, personable, and charming.
Thank you Maria!
Enjoyable day

Excellent day. Our tour guide was prompt, knowledgeable and an amazing driver! She did a
Splendid job navigating traffic while filling our heads with an abundance of information on everything around us ( in 3 languages no less!)
She assisted us in beating the crowds and maneuvering through the huge line ups with minimal waiting time for entrance to the castle. We made adequate stops for refreshments and bathroom visits. She also ensured everyone was comfortable and hydrated during the day. A wonderful tour. If I had to give one criticism: it would have been nice to have her navigate throughout the palace with us. ( other tour groups had a guide and it seemed like a great bonus.
Fabulous visit for first-timers to Portugal

This is a wonderful 7-8 hour tour of some of the best sights in and around Lisbon. Maria does a wonderful job of scheduling the trip correctly, down to precise pick-up times at the various sites, and the proper advance ticket purchases (at a discount!) which make for an early arrival at the Palace Sintra ahead of the crowds of tourists that follow. There is a nice blend of van time, tour time, and individual shopping/dining time. And the van time highlights some of the best ocean views you will ever see! Maria is a great story-teller on the romantic history of Portugal!! Including some interesting facts on how TEA gets its name, and where the tradition of drinking tea in the evening comes from!! My spouse and I really enjoyed this tour and strongly recommend it for newcomers to Portugal looking to get quick insight into Lisbon and Cascais.
Great tour
