Sightseeing with Tiago. - We were lucky to meet a lovely tuk tuk driver in Sintra. Tiago was friendly and caring as he showed us around this beautiful part of Portugal 🇵🇹 His tuk tuk was great fun to travel in and he stopped along the route to show us special sights and give us lots of information about each of the places. He recommended other places to visit and a great restaurant for lunch. There was no rush and we thoroughly enjoyed this experience. We would highly recommend taking a tour with this lovely young man. Thank you Tiago, we will return one day!

Tiago is the best - Tiago went above and beyond to show us around Sintra, the castles and the beach of apples! He gave us a ride up to the Pena palace as well! Can’t recommend him highly enough! He also did a great job explaining in detail the history of Sintra and spoke thoroughly about the history of both the pena palace, the history of Quinta da Regaleira and the private palace featured in the Johnny Depp film the ninth gate. 5 big stars for Tiago great tour!

Beautiful time in Sintra. - We visited Sintra and its surroundings by a Tuk Tuk. Our guide was Tiago a very nice and knowledgable young man and a great driver. He showed us the most beautiful places and told us interesting stories in perfect English. He adjusted the trip to our pace as we are an older couple. We appreciate it very much. We had a lovely time and we recommend Tiago and his Tuk Tuk.

Most amazing tuk tuk tour with a knowledgeable guide. - What an incredible day we had today with Tiago as our guide! My daughter and I had the very best time learning all about Sintra’s history from our very experienced guide. I love that Tiago is from the area and is so knowledgeable about everything from the history of the castles to the tree types and vegetation in this area. Not only was this tour exhilarating, but it was also very special and we felt catered to. We were taken to hidden spots and picture perfect locations. Tiago was an amazing photographer too! Stopping to take our pics whenever we wanted. I can’t say enough good things about our experience with west route tours. I highly recommend.
