Perfect - Excellent tour. Ricardo was a wonderful tour guide. He took great care of us and was very knowledgeable. Our schedule was relaxed enough that we had as much time as we needed at each location. Thanks Ricardo!

Tour of our Lives - This was an amazing experience. Ricardo was our host and guide and he was beyond excellent! Having a small group of five was like having a private tour. Ricardo has a wealth of knowledge about Portugal and its diverse history. The van was very comfortable and a full day of touring seemed so relaxing. If you are coming to Lisbon then I would highly recommend Ricardo and his tour of Sintra.

Enjoying experience - Had a wonderful half day excursion to Cascais, Sintra, Cabo da Roca and Pena Palace. Can't say enough how knowledgeable and pleasant was Ricardo as a guide. Imersive experience walking around charming towns of Cascais and Sintra. Cabo da Roca, a great place to relax a bit and watch waves hit the stones. Pena Palace above Sintra was also amazing with lush greenery and eclectic architecture. Would recommend this experience to everyone. Also, be prepared for a little bit of walking, wasn't exhausting, we had enough time for our own pace to explore.

Great day trip to see more of Lisbon! - It was a great way to see a couple small towns of Lisbon. Comfortable van that held 7 of us and the guide. Isabelle was our guide and she was very informative and pleasant. The first two stops we were on our own to look around with her guidance of what we might be interested in. Our last stop was the Pena Palace and she accompanied us into the palace and around which was very helpful! Make sure you wear comfortable “sneakers” and bring a light jacket (if not Summer). Much cooler at the Palace than we were expecting. I do think more time in Sintra would be a nice addition. However, I would still recommend this day trip to see more diverse side of Lisbon outside of downtown.

If I could give this less... - If I could give this less than one star. Our tour was cancelled the night before the tour. We were not texted or called to be informed. They sent us a cancellation in an email literally hours before the tour was to begin while we were asleep. Almost ruined a day of our vacation. We were able to scramble together another tour not with Viator that morning of the tour. I will never book with Viator again! Save yourself and book with someone else.
