The Perfect Day Trip - We joined the Templars Route tour hoping for a few good sights—what we got was a day we’ll never forget. Hugo was the heart of that. Friendly, knowledgeable, flexible: he saw what we needed and made it happen. From Tomar to Óbidos, we felt like VIPs. Wonderful guide and a top-quality program.

A Personalized Journey with Hugo - Hugo turned what could have been a standard tour into a truly personal journey. He listened carefully to what we wanted, adjusted the itinerary when needed, and always made sure we were comfortable. His storytelling brought the histories of Tomar, Batalha, Alcobaça and Óbidos alive in vivid detail. Excellent guide, excellent experience.
