Just do it. You won’t regret it. - Orlando our driver/guide checked all the boxes for us. He provided a ton of history. So knowledgeable, above and beyond expected. Tickets weren’t available for the palaces, however it gave us more free time in Sintra and Cascais, which we loved. Orlando provided 2 lunch suggestions in Cascais. The Portuguese seafood and rice was superb. Definitely hit the spot. Our final location, although windy truly made you feel like you had reached the end of the world. Spectacular views. Windy and sandy, but so glad we experienced it.
Thank you Orlando for a perfect day.

A well-used day - A well-used day. We went to Cascais, passed through Estoril and saw several palaces in Sintra. We had plenty of free time to stroll, shop, have lunch and enjoy a great day. The guide, Pedro is wonderful, his English is perfect, his Spanish too, he knows a lot and is very funny. It drives very quietly and gives a lot of safety to passengers. A great day, thanks to Pedro and Celina Tours for the punctuality and efficiency.

Unforgettable solo trip. - I had an excellent welcome at the airport, even having taken me a long time to leave for customs matters. Celina waited for me, we left the luggage at the Hotel and we headed to Sintra and Cascais. Amazing walk. I recommend.

Fantastic Tour with Pedro: A Knowledgeable and Engaging Guide - Pedro is an exceptional guide with boundless energy and an encyclopedic knowledge of Portugal’s history. His excellent English and insightful tips truly enhanced our tour experience. Despite the rain for half of the tour, we had a fantastic time, and he made sure we still had opportunities to enjoy coffee, treats, and explore on our own. We were fortunate to have him all to ourselves, but I have no doubt he would be equally fantastic with a larger group. We wholeheartedly recommend Celina Tours for an unforgettable tour experience!

Missed Pena Palace - Overall, this tour was very good. Our guide was local, knowledgable, and friendly. The order of the tour was to go to Cascais first, then Cabo da Roca, Quinta da Regaleira, and lastly the Pena Palace. Unfortunately, when we arrived at Pena Palace we were turned away at the gate. Our guide had us buy entrance tickets to Quinta da Regaleira early in the day but not for Pena Palace. It seems in recent days he was able to buy tickets to the grounds/gardens of the palace on the spot at the entrance. However, when we arrived, there were no more tickets for the day. The guide was very apologetic and took us to another palace in its place which was also lovely, but we were disappointed that we got so close to Pena and got turned away. I think the guide was sincerely surprised and likely changed his approach for his next tours, so I would still recommend it.
