Nunu was wonderful, friendly, we enjoyed our tour. He did what we wanted to do and the good thing it was just us.
This was a really nice way to see highlights of Sintra and Cascais. Nuno was our driver and he was so sweet and respectful as we had 2 toddlers with us, he went at our pace and was very knowledgeable and even recommended an excellent place for lunch. The beauty of this tour is you can make it jam packed as you want or relax, the tour guide really works with you and your group!
Our Guides were very personable and very knowledgeable of the history. Although the weather was not cooperating, we had a wonderful time.
