Nice and entertaining tuk-tuk tour in Sintra

Tiago makes the tuk-tuk tour a great experience and is very personable. You get a great overview of Sintra, the Pena Palace with historical background, and other palaces and parks, and upon request, tips for restaurants too.

Tiago Costa was a...

Tiago Costa was a fantastic guide! Very talkative and have very interesting facts and information about the different palaces and castles in a clear manner. Also took very good photos for me and my mum and a took a cute Polaroid photo of us. He was very pleasant and polite. This is a good tour if you wanted an overview of all the sites and to go see the monuments (with entry tickets) that spark your interest the most next day or later in the day as we did. Tiago kindly drove us to the old town afterwards, but did offer to drop us at the top of pena palace to see the gardens. Very flexible guide.

This is the perfect tour...

This is the perfect tour if you have a short period of time and yet want to know about Sintra and wish to see the major attractions and take beautiful photos without the long walks. Tiago and Svenja were fun and had the right amount of information to keep both the adults and kids interested! Thank you for a wonderful tour!
