We could not have had a better experience with our tour guide, Susana. Her professionalism, knowledge, and warm personality were all the best I’ve seen using Viator! Our only regret is that we didn’t book the full day tour because there is so much to see.

We had an incredible experience thanks to Rui, who took us on a tour of the Sintra region, Cabo da Roca, Ericeira, and back to Lisbon. We were a group of seven people, and Rui treated us with great professionalism and cordiality. He also took us to an excellent restaurant and patiently waited for us while we ate before continuing the tour. His attention to detail, driving skills, and knowledge of the local culture are truly impressive. I would recommend Rui to anyone looking for a guided tour in this part of Portugal. Thank you, Rui, for the wonderful experience! PT: Rui nos levou em um passeio pela região de Sintra, Cabo da Roca, Ericeira e de volta a Lisboa. Éramos um grupo de sete pessoas e Rui nos tratou com muito profissionalismo e cordialidade. Ele também nos levou a um restaurante excelente e esperou pacientemente enquanto comíamos antes de continuar o passeio. Sua atenção aos detalhes, habilidades de direção e conhecimento da cultura local são realmente impressionantes.
