Great trip / great guide

Exactly as advertised. Prompt and easy pickup. Guide was Benny Ribeiro. He was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and precise. He explained the trip in the morning with approximate times and it all worked out on schedule. Sintra and the castles were great. The well was more impressive in person. Then wonderful town of Cascais for lunch to end out the trip. Small group of 7 people in a nice van. I recommend this trip and ask for Benny!!

10/10 day trip

An amazing day trip - couldn’t recommend more. We went early and in nice weather so that helped. It’s very busy on the later tours. Benny our tour guide was amazing. Very informative, full of fun facts, great recommendations at each stop. Loved the afternoon lunch stop in Cascais, it really put a personal touch on a tourist tour type of day. Very glad I booked overall.

Great Sintra tour with both the Pena Palace and the Quinta

Smooth booking process, easy pick up and best of all a wonderful driver/guide in Miguel/Franklin. The drive in the mini-van was very comfortable and Miguel was very informative, helpful and fun
