Vasco was a great tour guide. We had another tour cancelled the night before and found the one with Vasco. And it could have been a better experience - his knowledge, generosity, insights and overall enthusiasm for the tour made it a day my family and I will never forget. Thanks, Vasco!
Vasco arrived on time and was very charming. As soon as we got into the car, he explained the plan for the day clearly. We had booked a tour to Pena Palace and Regaleira (tickets included) for $879. He advised that, at Pena, it’s better to do just the balcony tour since many interior sections are closed, and suggested visiting the National Palace instead. He also mentioned that Regaleira tends to be very busy in the morning, so he planned to take us there in the afternoon. After visiting Pena, we stopped for lunch, and that’s when things changed. After lunch, he told us we could no longer go to Regaleira because it was fully booked. This was surprising, as we had booked the tour a month in advance. It raised questions about why tickets hadn’t been secured ahead of time or why this wasn’t known earlier in the day. He then said he would take us to the National Palace instead of Regaleira, even though he had already mentioned visiting it earlier as an alternative to the Pena interior. Fortunately, we were able to arrange tickets ourselves for the next day and visit Regaleira independently. We were disappointed by the experience. The explanations we were given didn’t add up, and after speaking with customer service, we were told the reasons provided were not accurate. It felt like the situation could have been avoided with better planning, and unfortunately, it ended up wasting a significant part of our day. Even worst part was that he blamed his own government for closing the booking whereas it was his own incompetence. Please avoid him
Dear Jagdeep Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the experience did not meet your expectations. However, it is important to clarify that on the day of the tour, Sintra was operating under exceptional conditions due to sudden restrictions imposed by local authorities on traffic circulation and access during the Easter period, without prior notice to operators. This directly impacted access to throughout the day. At the start of the day, during the initial briefing, we clearly presented the possible constraints that could arise given these conditions. In order to anticipate and secure access to , we suggested making a decision early in the morning so that tickets could still be reserved in time. However, we were informed, while already in the vehicle, that the decision would be made later depending on how the day progressed, particularly as you preferred a more relaxed pace and the children showed limited interest in visiting additional monuments. From the beginning, we informed you of potential constraints and acted with full professionalism in adapting the program. It is also important to note that our tour includes the visit to Pena Palece limited to the terraces and gardens only. Given the impossibility of visiting Quinta da Regaleira , we proposed as an alternative the Nacional Palece in the historic center, as well as the option to choose another palace or monument from the alternatives presented, in order to maintain the quality and continuity of the experience. Regarding the information you mentioned receiving afterward, it does not accurately reflect the operational reality experienced on the ground that day, which may have contributed to a misinterpretation of the situation. Throughout the entire service, we maintained a punctual, attentive, and solution-oriented approach, including additional concierge support for the remainder of your stay. We understand that unforeseen circumstances can be frustrating. However, we cannot agree with the way the situation was described, nor with the association to a lack of professionalism, which does not reflect our standards. Cazzulu is committed to high levels of quality and consistency, and situations of this nature are truly exceptional. Kind regards, Rute Faleiro CAZZULU Travel Design & EventsS
SUPER trip, has shown us everything important and explained. Taken a lot of time. Showed us the cork oak, too.
My husband and I had a fantastic time exploring Sintra & Cascais with our guide Vasco! We made the booking only a few days in advance, and his team was proactive in suggesting we move our tour back a day to avoid rainy weather on the coast. As a result, we ended up with a perfect sunny autumn day for our tour! Vasco provided excellent service, with pick up and drop off at our hotel in Lisbon — even showing up 10 min early to our pickup time. Our day included a tour of the town centers of Caiscais and Sintra, several stops to taste local treats like cherry liqueur and Portuguese pastries, a visit to the scenic lookout of Cabo da Roca, and a very extensive tour of the Regeleira estate in Sintra. The cherry on top was an absolutely spectacular lunch at a restaurant overlooking the bluffs of the Atlantic coast. I would absolutely recommend this tour — Vasco was a knowledgeable local guide and very flexible to adjust the itinerary according to our interests. Well worth the money to see the coast in style — thank you Vasco!!
We were fortunate to have Bruno Fernandez as our tour guide, arranged through Viator. He was extremely knowledgeable about the sites we visited and about the country as a whole. Bruno was personable, thoughtful, and offered many suggestions that truly enhanced our visi. He made the experience enjoyable and engaging from start to finish. This was the best day of our trip so far, and that was entirely thanks to Bruno's guidance. I will gladly recommend him to family and friends visiting this area.
We had a truly wonderful day with Vasco, on our third trip to Portugal! Staying in Cascais for a few days before heading down the coast, we wanted a proper exploration of Sintra without worrying about buses / trains etc. so booked an all day trip for a family of four (kids 14 and 11.5). We had an absolutely brilliant day - Vasco brought us to so many interesting places and knows all the best places to stop which are off the beaten track. He also gave us a full guided tour of Quinta de Regaleira and is so knowledgable about the area. His commitment to making sure customers are looked after and having a good time is exceptional. He knows everyone in the area and provides a top class service. The trip was worth every penny to us as it was tailored to our wishes and to ensure our kids were not bored!
My daughter and I booked this customizable tour as private because we wanted to spend time at Monserrat and Cascais. On the morning of our tour we received a text that we would be sharing the tour with another couple. They wanted to see Pena Palace and Quinta de Regaleira so we only made a brief stop at Monserrat and only drove through Cascais. I saved a long time for this tour and will likely not make it back to see Cascais, which was my dream. I gave the tour operator many chances to reduce the fee to a “small group” rate rather than private and they refused my request.
Amazing day of visiting all of Sintra and the beautiful coast of Portugal. We got inside all 3 major landmarks, lovely lunch in village & drive along the coast.
Vasco got us in to all 3 of our desired locations in Sintra, a lovely lunch, and coastal drive .. the perfect day. Be prepared to walk a lot to see the best views.
If you are looking for a tour of Sintra, you'll find many tours and they're all a little different. Our tour guide, Vasco, actually lives in the Sintra area and has a very wide knowledge of the area. He was a wealth if info with great stories. You can go with him and enter tge castle if you wish. The tour included lunch at a great little authentic restaurant. We toured Cascais which is a wonderful little town. And we were given the history of tge area. This,was a great tour!
