The half-day tour was the perfect length and a wonderful way to experience Sintra. Thanks to our guide, we were able to see the places you simply can’t miss when visiting Portugal in the most efficient and enjoyable way. Exploring such a magical destination with an experienced and passionate guide made the experience even more special. His excellent time management, attention to every guest, and ability to create a fun and friendly atmosphere made the tour truly exceptional. This became one of the best memories of my trip to Portugal. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the country!
One of the best tours I’ve been on, Mauro has so much knowledge, history, and stories to share. We never felt rushed and he was so accommodating throughout the day. Would absolutely recommend his tour to anyone visiting and take it again myself - the pena palace was such breath taking views one of my fav trips!
So good we had to do it twice! Went once with friends and came back with family and enjoyed it both times. Definitely strongly recommend calling Mauro for your tour as you can hear the passion and knowledge in his voice. Sintra is second nature for Mauro and he will for sure make your trip the best.
Mauro was awesome, had great energy, and extremely helpful and accommodating for us! He helped us create some awesome memories.
Mauro was absolutely great! He takes care of everything! Definitely book with him!
Excellent guide with knowledge about the locations, history. Friendly in the deal and very professional.
We had the best experience out of all of our travels, Mauro was an absurdly good host. He knows everything you would want to know about Portugese Culture. A truely great host! He took care of all of the things needed for the trip. He also did some extras such as, he bought local pasterys for our group. Would absolutly recommend!
We had an absolutely amazing day with Mauro! The fact that my family and I were the only people on the tour was brilliant as we were able to learn so much. Mauro is from Sintra, so he has an incredible knowledge of the area and it's history. The Pena palace was not too busy so we got to have a good look around it's beautiful terraces, the ticket Mauro got for us made it so easy! The drive through the stunning countryside to Pena, then the historic centre of Sintra was so enjoyable and we also went to Cabo Da Roca with stunning views of the Atlantic. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone. Thanks for such an amazing day Mauro, we all felt like Sintra locals!!
