Great half-day tour of Sintra and surroundings with Hugo - My wife and I had a wonderful half-day tour with our extremely friendly and knowledgeable guide, Hugo. We'd highly recommend this tour for those who do not have a full day to spend in Sintra, but would like to see as much as possible in a short period of time. Hugo is a fantastic guide and his English is flawless.

Go see Sintra - Sintra is a beautiful and special place, but Diego was able to navigate efficiently through heavy traffic, and was able to give us a first rate tour in a limited amount of time we had available to explore. With his experience he was able to give us a fantastic tour of Sintra and Cascais that we would not otherwise been possible for us.

Perfection! - The half-day Sinatra tour with Tiago was incredible. He was extremely accommodating, pick us up at our Airbnb, and transported us to Sinatra, stopping enroute so that we could get shuttle tickets for the trip into Peña Palace. His knowledge of Lisbon history was impressive, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with him!

Sintra w Paolo - Amazing! - Paolo was an amazing guide! We truly enjoyed not just the tour, but our conversations with him. He told us much about the history of this country and the sites we visited. He also flexed the plan for the day once he got to know us a bit better and knew what we’d enjoy. I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone!!!

Not worth it! - The driver was wonderful (5 stars) but: 1) this should NOT be advertised as a tour highlighting PENA Palace. You get nowhere near it. Barely got a photo through trees from half mile away a long way up the hill. You do not get to tour the grounds outside the palace on this tour. You do get to take a photo of a pond through an iron gate. Wow! The photo shown by Viator is not what you get. Very deceptive advertising. 2) Sintra was nice but a bit over-rated. Don’t go in summer, you may never get there. If you like crowds, go there. 3) I would recommend the tour that includes Sintra and Monserrat Palace and gardens. It was wonderful. 4) Pena Palace requires ticket reservations (not included in this tour) and takes several hours. Don’t plan to spend time in Sintra afterwards. You will be exhausted.
