Private 4 hour Sintra Tour

Today we had an incredible 4-hour private tour to Sintra and Cabo da Roca with Cláudio Henrique from Ola Viva Tours, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip. Cláudio took us through Sintra and showed us the castle, bringing its history to life with clear explanations and fascinating details that made the visit even more special. From there, we continued on to Cabo da Roca, where we were treated to breathtaking views from high above the cliffs, as well as stunning beaches below that are popular with surfers. The scenery was absolutely unforgettable, and Cláudio knew exactly where to stop so we could fully appreciate it. What made the day exceptional was Cláudio himself. His deep knowledge, easygoing charisma, and ability to interact seamlessly in multiple languages made the experience smooth, engaging, and enjoyable for our whole family. He was also incredibly thoughtful, taking plenty of beautiful photos of us along the way—memories we’ll treasure long after the trip. Once again, Cláudio went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. If you’re considering a tour with Ola Viva Tours, we couldn’t recommend him more highly. He truly has a gift for showing people the beauty of Portugal.

My wife, brother-in-law & sister-in-law had an amazing experience going going to Peña Palace in Sintra, Portugal. Our tour guide was Cláudio Enrique. He is an amazing tour guide & an even better person! He was so friendly, warm & speaks 5 languages. No matter what country you are from, Cláudio is the best tour guide you could ask for. He also does other tours as well.

My daughter and I have just spent two very pleasant days with Claudio and his son Daniel on two different tours. Very efficient, very knowledgable and most importantly extremely nice people. I would definitely recommend them without any hesitation. Without doubt the best way to see Lisbon and the local area. A five star experience.

Claudio had provided my Dad and I with a tour of the Lisbon the day previous and had recommended the Sintra private tour. It was Daniel who led that and it was fabulous. Both were so knowledgeable and clearly enjoyed what they do. They made our trip to Lisbon that much more fab, and I'd have no hesitation in recommending them.

Beautiful experience. The Clàudio guide was very prepared and helpful: in the previous days he gave me indications on what you could visit and what tickets to buy. The places are beautiful! Olá viva!

After Lisbon, a visit to Sintra, a breath of air in this beautiful park, a discovery of a piece of history with Claudio, inexhaustible on his country. Enriching!

My family (2 adults, 2 teens) had the good luck of having Claudio give us 2 excellent tours: one a 3-hour tuk tuk tour of the city of Lisbon and another one a 4-hour tour to Sintra and Lisbon’s surrounding areas. We couldn’t be happier! I was struck by Claudio’s vast knowledge about Lisbon and Portugal, his calm character, and his ultimate flexibility to accommodate our unconventional schedule. He was a gentleman and helped us see so much in Lisbon and surrounding in a very fruitful but short 2.5-day stay in Lisbon :)

Daniel was great! Very informative and personable!!! Thanks to Daniel and his father, Claudio for the wonderful tour and memories.

We were able to take 2 different tours with Claudio and Olá viva tours!! Claudio is WONDERFUL!!!! We had so much fun and we learned a lot about the rich history of Portugal! We fully recommended Olá Viva tours! Claudio is a wealth of knowledge and is a great guy! We had a great time and if we visit again we will be reaching out again!!!

We had a tour of Pena Palace in sintra that included a stop in cascais. This was through “swing on”. The guide, Paulo was friendly and very informative regarding the history and anecdotes related to the palace, as welll as sintra in general. The van was spotless, comfortable and water bottles were provided. I’m unsure of the main tour company’s name, however.
