幻想的でロマンチックなシントラ体験

We traveled with Mathieu for two weeks in Portugal. He is an exceptional guide, relaxed and patient, fluent in many languages. He planned our visit to Sintra to avoid the worst of the crowds. Matieu is a wealth of information on history, architecture, agriculture, botany, culture, food and wine, presented in an excellent storytelling style with good humour. Best guide we’ve had anywhere in Europe and beyond.

The trip was organized by Visionario Tours. The designated guide was very knowledgeable and provided excellent insight into the history and intrigues of the Portuguese aristocracy.

Me and my wife had an awesome trip to Portugal to include the city of Sintra. Our tour guide Matthew provided us with an outstanding experience and knowledge of each town that we visit. I highly recommend Matthew as a tour guide. I booked thistour through Exoticca.

We had a great experience in Sintra. Matthew, our guide had deep knowledge of history of Quita da Regaleira as well as Portugal and World history in general. He was also entertaining with a good sense of humor. He also made good recommendations for places to eat to suit our requirements.

What I really like about the trip is the fact that our tour guide Mattheu is so knowledgeable and experienced guide,he also make sure that we are all safe while enjoying every moment of our journey with no rushing whatsoever,thanks to Mattheu , our guide

A truly fabulous day exploring the magical town of Sintra! From the fairytale palaces to the lush, misty hills, every corner felt like stepping into a dream. What made the experience even more special was our incredibly knowledgeable tour guide—passionate, engaging, and full of fascinating stories that brought Sintra’s rich history to life. From hidden gems to iconic landmarks, every stop was meaningful and unforgettable.

Absolutely loved our experience in Sintra! First, Regaleira Palace such an amazing place to be. Mathieu, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and thoughtful bringing up info of what was in front of us but also bringing up possibilities of what the owner was trying to create and the extensive work it took to create. Even had info and knowledge on the flora and plant life. Lots of history about the timeline and explaining the deep history even after the owner Monteiro passed away. We enjoyed this and would highly recommend!

Sintra is a picturesque town, with a fairytale castle and beautiful landscapes. Matthew was our tour guide, very knowledgeable and charismatic, our vacation is memorable thanks to him.

Unforgettable day at the beautiful Regaladia castle in Sintra. Mathew our guide explained in details the building of this castle and stories about the people who owned it. The inception well was extraordinary to see and walk down the steps to the cave. The background of the Templar beliefs with Dante's ideology intensified the experience here in the beautiful gardens of the castle. Mathew even made the "walk" up to the castle bearable 😄 If you only get to do one castle tour, I highly recommend Mathew for this one. It was great.

Our day in Sintra with Matthew was absolutely spectacular. He has an infectious passion for the region that kept us engaged from start to finish. Why we recommend him: • Expert Navigation: He knew exactly when to visit the palaces to avoid the worst lines and maximize our time. • Deep Storytelling: Instead of just dates and facts, Matthew shared the legends and hidden symbols of the area that we never would have discovered on our own. • Personal Touches: He steered us toward local spots for authentic pastries and views that were far better than the usual tourist traps. Matthew is professional, witty, and incredibly thoughtful. Don’t visit Sintra any other way!
