Lisbon Adventure Tour with Jose - We had the most amazing day with our guide, Jose, yesterday! He could not have been kinder or more patient! We first when to Pena Palace. He had already purchased our timed tickets and transfer shuttle. The palace was incredible and the in depth history José shared made it even more meaningful! That man knows his history! He then took us to a winery - the only where the grapes are grown in the sand. Delicious! Then on to a local restaurant where we got to chose our own fish. Delicious! Then a lovely drive to the the western most point of europes mainland. On to the sweet little town of Sintra where Jose took us to his favorite bakery for amazing treats! Yum! Jose is the best! Grab him if you can!

Beautiful private tour with world class guide. - What an excellent tour this was! Jose was the best guide my family and I could have been gifted with. His knowledge and professionalism was unmatched, and his kindness is second to none. I would recommend this tour to anyone seeking a day full of beautiful views, historic insights, and a chance to make a new friend in Portugal. Thank you Jose for a perfect experience.

Epic Tour of Lisbon! - Our "driver" Jose was incredible. He kept referring to himself as nothing more than our driver with jokes, but that couldn't be farther from the truth. Jose took us around Lisbon and adjacent areas, showed us from a locals perspective the best parts of Lisbon, and even took us to some hidden gems! We had to modify our trip due to conflicts, and Jose took his subject matter expert knowledge and without hesitation modified the trip to accommodate our change in schedule. 10/10 would recommend Lisbon on Wheels, and specifically Jose!

A fabulous tour of Pena palace and the coast with wine tasting and lunch. - Wow! Definitely 5/5! We had a fantastic day with Lisbon on Wheels. Our guide, Jose, was truly excellent. He was attentive, informative, humorous and relaxed. He even managed to keep our 14 and 17 year olds engaged all day. We did a trip to the palace, Sintra, wine tasting in Colares, Cabo da Roca and finally Cascais. There were some additional stops off the tourist tracks too, which felt very special. We thoroughly enjoyed our day. Lunch was amazing, especially if you enjoy seafood. Jose even extended the day by a couple of hours, which he discussed and agreed with us. Highly recommend.

Tour was great and José was an awesome tour guide! - José was an awesome tour guide and made the day so worthwhile and special for us! He was super talkative, showed us a handful of unique spots along the way, and provided recommendations for the rest of our time in Portugal. Would definitely recommend booking this!!

Our best tour in Lisbon - Jose is a true gentleman with a wealth of knowledge about his native Portugal and its history. He picked us up promptly at our hotel and became a true friend over the course of our all-day tour from sites in Lisbon, and then to Sintra where we visited the Royal Pena Palace with Jose as our personal guide. He then took us to a wonderful seafood restaurant on the ocean shore before moving on to a wine tasting at a vineyard where Gordon Ramsey had highlighted a new grape growing technique. He had everything planned out to beat the crowds and give my wife and I the best experience of our trip. Would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Lisbon

Jos did a wonderful job showing us the sites and gave us memories for years to come! - Jose was an excellent guide for Sintra and the surrounding areas for my friend and I. When they said “private tour”, I didn’t envision it would actually be my friend and I and our guide, but it was. One on one time where we could easily ask questions, and relax in the spacious van in between stops. Jose was full of key information about the landmarks and cities and made us feel very comfortable and welcome. We never felt rushed at each stop or landmark, as he gave us no limit to how much time we could spend there. He has a great sense of humor! At the end of it we all had many laughs and made a new friend in Jose. He took us to a wine lodge to taste some truly one of a kind wines, and they were incredible! What a great experience and a great day trip outside of Lisbon.

Perfect Day! - Jose was a terrific guide! Our private tour was on 13 May. He got us to the palace at opening and we had a wonderful, unrushed informative tour...and the weather was perfect! We opted to walk up and down from the palace rather than the bus. Made it very enjoyable for us. Lunch was at an out of the way place on the beach...delicious and beautiful setting. Colares wine tasting and visit to see where the grapes grow was very interesting. We really enjoyed our day with Jose, and would tell you to request him from Lisbon on Wheels through Viator. Thank you Jose!!
