We had the best day! Not only was our guide Nuno friendly and approachable, his knowledge of the places we visited and Portugal's history in general was outstanding. His contribution made our day and we would highly recommend him, and this tour. The palaces we're beautiful and their histories are fascinating. The Basilica and the Library at Mafra are beyond description. Don't just go to Sintra, go to Mafra and Queluz as well - it is a life changing experience.
Hello Penelope I find this review so fascinating and refreshing. It’s amazing you feel this way going of the standard grid. Yes there is another world here, and for me is also very rewarding… specially when people trust me to take them. Thank you, thank you. Best Regards. Nuno
