Gus was awesome! He was so knowledgeable and knew his history even with all the extra questions we asked. He was a fun tour guide and pretty accommodating with us and our baby. I would definitely book again. Thank you!!
Awesome experience with Gustavo
Gustavo, our guide, was perfect. Very nice and knowledgeable. Highly recommended tour, necessary to visit and understand some places. Transportation punctual and comfortable. We were enthusiastic. And in love with Gustavo.
We thought the guided excursion by Rafael was fabulous. A very good guide in his explanations and very friendly.
The excursion to Sintra and Cabo da Roca guided by Rafael has been wonderful. We really liked his explanations and his great friendliness.
Dyego Gasper was our guide. He is simply fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and gave us all the history and background of the locations we visited. He is super friendly and made our tour very enjoyable. I will highly recommend him and will contact him for my future trips.
It was a wonderful experience, and our guide Diego was very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. We bought a second tour from the same guide even before our first tour ended :) I recommend going to Sintra on a tour rather than individually.
The weather was rainy and foggy, thus we couldn't see any of the views, however the Palacio da Pena was still a great location. Quinta da Regaleira was amazing, as expected. My only complain is that the guide couldn't join us during the Quinta part of the tour because he couldn't find a parking spot for the van, so he have us the tickets to enter on our own. Nevertheless Pedro was a great guide who explained us everything afterwards and also gave us some tips to move around Lisboa and the nearby cities.
The visit was great, they came to pick us up at the hotel and we went to the Pena Palace in Sintra; the palace is very beautiful and, together with the fog that day, it gave a bucolic touch to the visit; then we went to another small palace with winding stairs and an interesting history. We ended the trip with a visit to Cabo da Roca where you can get impressive views of the Atlantic. In particular, we would like to thank our guide Gustavo for his attention, as throughout the trip he was explaining the history of each site and advising us on where to go in Lisbon and its surroundings. It is recommended to live the experience in this small format, but it is very enjoyable.
Highly recommended excursion, Gustavo the guide is very attentive, we had a great day!
