An amazing tour, thanks to our tour guide, Gonzalo !! - Gonzalo, our tour guide, was incredible. He was professional, yet personable, very knowledgeable and accommodating. Every place we visited today was well planned out as Gonzalo took us around, giving us enough time to take in the beauty of each place without rushing us around. His explanations as the bus made its way along the winding roads, was interesting, and he kept us entertained with his sense of humour. Lunch at Toca do Julio was excellent, a good spot suggested by your company: quick service, good food and pleasant ambiance. Finally, our tour ended with a visit to the Queluz National Palace and Gardens. Gonzalo 's knowledge of the history of the palace is commendable. Throughout the tour, he offered to take group photographs at scenic locations. Our tour of Sintra and Cascais was excellent from start to finish, thanks to Gonzalez and the bus driver. We will definitely recommend ' Where to' to our friends.

Sintra tour! - Luis pape was an absolutely amazing guide! We learned so much history from him. When he speaks about the history of Portugal you can tell he has such a passion and is so proud of what the Portugese accomplished. For him it’s not a job he truly loves what he does. Thank you Luis when return to Portugal will make sure to have you takes to Fatima!

If I could turn back time, I wouldn’t go. - This trip is not worth money we paid! Sintra is beautiful village, also Estoril is very posh, but everything else is not worth that money. For example, we went to Pena palace, but that was so short visit, and even we paid for tickets for park, we didn’t see anything of park! I was very dissapointed. Wish I could turn back money and not go to that trip.

"Sold a tour they knew couldn’t happen. No warning, no alternative, extra charges, rude guide, and no AC. Filed official - Title: Tour Did Not Match Description – Poor Communication & Service I booked the “Full Day Tour to Sintra and Cascais” (€138, cash) expecting the advertised itinerary: Palace of Pena, Medieval Town of Sintra, Cabo da Roca, Cascais, and Estoril, in a small group with air conditioning. Instead: • Major sites were cancelled due to fire alerts, which the company knew about before selling the tickets but never disclosed. • No alternative or refund was offered — we were taken to a small palace instead and charged an extra €22 without prior notice. • Guide was unprofessional — difficult to hear, gave minimal/incorrect information, and refused reasonable requests. • Poor comfort — air conditioning didn’t reach back seats, windows were kept closed for the front passengers’ comfort. Overall, the service was nothing like what was sold. I have filed a formal complaint through the Livro de Reclamações and requested a full refund under Portuguese consumer law. I not informed until after we were underway. They breached all that the claimed in there brochure and the guide was inept. I would never recommend this company to anyone. They are of course refusing to give the money back against thier own policies and knowledge that I was basically forced, hijacked, to take the trip without the information to make an informed consent! Terrible honeymoon experience!
