Inside Lisbon -Great company and tours

Benny was our guide into Sintra and Cascais. He was easy to talk to and had thorough knowledge of all the areas with little gems added into his talks. Pena Palace is beautiful and is a must do as early as possible as the palace gets crowded quickly. My only wish is that we had more time to include Regaliera but you can book that separately but lose the beauty of Cascais. Cascais is a breathtaking beach town that you don’t want to miss. Our kids enjoyed the trip and took many pictures die instagram 🤣. I would book again with Inside Lisbon tour and ask for Benny!

Pena Palace / Cabo Da Roca/ Cascais

We had a great experience with Inside Lisbon. Our tour guide Benny was absolutely awesome! He had a full itinerary planned for us and so organized. He gave a lot of information about Portugal‘s History and it helped us during our visit to the Pena Palace. I would highly recommend them! Thank you for a fantastic day 👍🏽

It’s official- I love Portugal!

The trip starts out at the Hard Rock Cafe in the Ave of Liberty, a high end shopping district. We drive up to Sintra, spend time at the castle which is beautiful. The town of Sintra is very quaint with lots of food and trinkets. We then drive along the coast to Cabo de Roca, the westernmost point of Europe,. We then drive to Cascais, a resort town with delicious seafood. Ricardo was our tour guide and he is just so knowledgeable about Portuguese history, local restaurants, etc. tour was well worth the money.
