Our driver Rui was great picking us up and getting us there and back however, it rained that day put a bit of a damper on our adventures. and i dont think a half day really gave us enough time to see all of the sites since you have to walk quite alot to be able to see everthing and it takes some time to get to each place also if you dont book ahead you take the risk of not getting in and it gets busy quick. we did have enough time to walk one of the gardens and go into the manner Palacio e parque Biester not busy at all and walk around town abit . it all worked out but if you want to see more or dont want to feel rushed you need about 6 hrs to explore Sintra and longer if you want to take your time especially if you have to wait to get in. we opted for the self guided half day tour just to get a taste of Sintra so that gave us more time in lisbon since we only had a couple of days there. I would recommend Our tour company they did exactly what was expected of them that being said take the longer tour option if you can
After a little confusion as to if Sintra was “open”, our guide made the day more than amazing. Great stories about the palace. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Absolutely loved spending most of the day with Luis. He even sang a Fado song for us, on the way back home.
Was the best that me and my family ever had since we arrived in Lisbon, very professionals and friendlys. Thank you Mr José and all the team of Tours4Lisbon.
