The guide Rita is polite and competent. In addition to providing us a wonderful tour, during this, gave us a lesson on the history of Potugal, with mt0s details. IT'S WORTH MT0 TO HAVE CONTRACTED. Congratulations Rita
Muito obrigada pelas suas palavras e pelo carinho! Foi um enorme prazer acompanhá-los e partilhar um pouco da história e das belezas de Portugal convosco. Fico muito feliz por saber que gostaram da experiência e que o tour correspondeu às vossas expectativas. Obrigada pela confiança e espero voltar a recebê-los numa próxima visita a Portugal! 🇵🇹❤️
We had an amazing experience with Rita during our private tour of Sintra, Cascais, and Cabo da Roca in April. We were traveling with our 2.5-year-old son, and Rita made the entire day incredibly comfortable and enjoyable for our family. She was attentive, knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely caring. Throughout the tour, she adapted everything to our needs, making sure we had time for breaks, snacks, restroom stops, and anything else our little one required. We never felt rushed, and her flexibility made a huge difference. Rita shared fascinating information about the places we visited and made the tour engaging and enjoyable from start to finish. What impressed us most was her thoughtful approach and understanding of traveling with a young child. She even spent more time with us than originally planned to ensure we had the best possible experience. We truly appreciated her kindness, patience, and dedication. We absolutely loved our day with Rita and highly recommend her to anyone visiting Portugal. Thank you for making our trip so memorable!
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a real pleasure spending the day with you and getting to know your lovely family. I’m delighted to hear that you felt comfortable and were able to enjoy the experience at your own pace, especially with your little explorer. My goal is always to create special experiences tailored to each family, so knowing that I helped make your trip memorable means a lot to me. Thank you for your trust and recommendation. I hope to welcome you back to Portugal again in the future! ❤️🇵🇹
We did the Sintra tour with Rita last November and honestly it was the highlight of our trip. She’s so passionate about Portugal and knows everything about the palaces. Pena is absolutely stunning, the colors are insane. Cabo da Roca was breathtaking even tho it was freezing lol. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind words! It truly means a lot to me that you enjoyed the tour and that it became a highlight of your trip. Sintra is a magical place, and I’m so happy you loved Pena Palace and the views at Cabo da Roca, even with the cold! It was a pleasure spending the day with you, and I hope to see you again in Portugal someday.

Thanks to Rita, my children and I had an absolutely wonderful day. We were able to see so much in a very comfortable and relaxed way. We enjoyed visiting Pena Palace without any stress, discovered beautiful spots by the ocean, and learned a lot about the region and its history during the relaxed drive with her. We never could have experienced so much on our own in such a short time. The day ended perfectly with her great recommendations for a delicious dinner and some very special ice cream. We truly appreciate everything she did to make this such a memorable day!
Thank you very much for your kind words. It was a great pleasure to spend the day with you and to be part of such special moments. I’m very happy to know you enjoyed the experience. It will always be a pleasure to welcome you again.

Muchas gracias ☺️ espero volver a recibirlas😘
This tour with Rita was a great way to see a lot within a day. Rita was great and very flexible with what we wanted to see. She was knowledgeable and took us to the best viewpoints. We were able to have a delicious breakfast at a local cafe in Sintra per Rita’s recommendation which was fantastic. Rita also provided multiple resources and recommendations for the rest of our stay and offered to be our local resource while we were here. I would recommend this tour for small groups looking for a personalized experience.
Thank you so much! If you enjoy your day, I stay happy! Hope see you again! ☺️
