Half day to Sintra tour with Teressa from Swingo

Teressa was our guide. She was AMAZING!! She made the tour a perfect experience. She was funny, had a lot of knowledge, knew exactly when to explain more and when to shorten the explanation, and her English was not less than perfect!

Tour guide, Dayane, makes our trip to Sinatra a tour we’ll never forget.

Our Guide, Dayane, was the highlight of our tour. The westernmost part of continental Europe was fun, the old town of the Sinatra villlage was a bit too commercial and touristy, the Pina Palace was very interesting.

Incredible, Valuable Experience

This experience was fantastic and well worth the cost! Diego knew exactly where to go, what to do, how to move through the crowds, and made the entire trip relaxed and enjoyable. We coasted past every single line, moved easily through the tour without a wait, and enjoyed well-timed historically information without a ‘standard’ tour talk-track. If you value your time and want an optimal experience, this is one to book!

A great half day tour.

Very informative with lots of historical facts shared. The guide was also considerate of my needs as I needed to go slower than the general pace.

Fabio was a fantastic driver and tour guide. The actual sites were outstanding, Sintra, Cascais and Cabo de Roca. He was extremely friendly, professional and knowledgeable. He provided ample time for pictures, shopping and sightseeing. With the help of Swingo (the local tour operator) we were lucky enough to have Fabio a second day to tour Lisbon as our private driver/tour guide. Since I had done lots of research prior to the trip, Fabio and I were able to set a great itinerary for both days. We highly recommend him and Swingo.
