リスボンの味: ワインテイスティング体験

We booked expecting a cultural Lisbon wine and Fado experience, but were taken to an Italian restaurant instead. Only 3 wines served (not 4), with no local insight or engagement from the host, who left after 30 minutes. The food was Italian, not Portuguese. Lovely restaurant staff, but overall the experience was disappointing and not as advertised.

I really enjoyed my tour with Jade. He is extremely knowledgeable about the history of Sintra and the places I visited. I enjoyed my tour of Sintra more because Jade was able to throughly explain to me the history of the city and Quinta da Regaleira. While I could have gone by myself to visit Sintra, I wouldn’t have enjoyed it without having Jade’s guided tour. He was a very welcoming and personable person. I highly recommend doing the Sintra tour with Jade!

My friend and I were visiting Portugal for vacation. We signed up for the Sintra tour through recommendations through our hostel. I’m extremely glad that we did. Joe was our tour guide and he was not only thorough with the facts and history of beautiful Sintra, but made the trip even more fun with his personality. It was never once boring. I will say that the tour is a half day trip and there is a lot of walking, so that’s something to keep in mind. Thankfully, Joe gave us as many breaks as we needed! I highly recommend asking for Joe is possible!

With a small tour group the tour was really personable and fun. Joano was a great guide and he made sure that myself and the others were enjoying the tour and left with no unanswered questions.

I had the pleasure to experience Sintra with Silvio. We were a small group of 3 people which made the communication/asking questions quite easy. Right after introducing himself and us doing the same he showed a lot of interest in our origin and well being. During the time we spent on the train to Sintra (30 minutes) I was able to share my experiences of Portugal/Spain etc. with him and it really felt like talking to a friend you already knew. He was open for any type of questions so you didn't experience this awkward silence you sometimes have during a tour etc. In Sintra he was able to tell you almost everything about the place even though he does like 6 other tours at the same time! In conclusion we had a really nice time in Sintra with Silvio and I would totally recommend it to you if you are into visiting a new place with someone who might not know the date of XY but can tell you basically everything you want to know. A quick thanks to him on my behalf, its Hannes. (Ich hoffe du machst weiter mit der gleichen Motivation und Engagement!) He will understand ;) Only downpoint: The price! I talked to people in my hostel who did a full day tour (Quinta da Regaleira and Cabo da Roca) for 32€.

We had a wonderful time in Sintra thanks to our guide Silvio. Despite the rain, we enjoyed every bit of our visit, as Silvio told us a lot of stories about history, legends and told us a lot of fun facts. I totally recommand.

Our guide, Eduardo, made history come alive through his engaging storytelling. We did tours with Discover Lisbon (3 with Eduardo) and they were all excellent. The Sintra tour was so interesting, especially when Eduardo took us in the Masonic Initiation Rite Wells! From getting on the train to Sintra, to sampling a special pastry made in Sintra and visiting the Quinta da Regaleira, Eduardo made it all amazing. Highly recommended!

The tour guide on this tour was Eduardo and he was excellent. So good that we booked a second tour with him. I would highly recommend this company especially if your guide is Eduardo.

The Sintra tour with Nunu was very informative. He answered all our questions and gave a very thorough and entertaining description of the sights. I would recommend this tour. You are left in Sintra at the end, free to continue exploring or head back on the train to Lisbon.

We were looking for a tour that did not included other towns, such as Cascais. This was the one we found. We were well taken care off, including train tickets, a snack, fast track lane etc. Guide knew it’s stuff and told the stories with flair. Overall a good (half) day and recommended tour.
