An amazing day out to Sintra, Cap de Roca & Cascais with Tailor Made Travel in a private small tour direct from our hotel in central Lisbon. Fred our guide was brilliant, giving us good advice on what best to do, giving relevant interesting information, speaking great English, showing us the best spots avoiding crowds and unnecessary queuing. Fred was great company. The visit to Montserrat (esp gardens) and our lunch spot on the coast were definite highlights. I Would definelty recommend this tour or the full day tour. Sintra is a beautiful place.
We were referred to Luis Cardoso Meneses by out Hotel as we did not want to spend the full day on a group tour. This was perfect and affordable. He picked us up in the afternoon and we drove in a private car to the Palace in Sintra. Luis was fantastic and sharing both the history and the local trivia along the drive and really tied the story of the Portuguese royalty into the history of the region. We really enjoyed Luis, the service, and the fact that we only spent a partial day of touring and getting see what we wanted versus a whole day with a large group. The only thing I regret is not doing this on the first day in Lisbon as we probably would have booked other activities with him. As a plus he recommended a couple restaurants that were really really good!
Terrific tour guide. We had a great experience touring sights in Sintra area and Inez was super fun and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend her!
The tour guide is very friendly and knowledgeable, good arrangement. He also shared a lot of history of Portugal with us.
