The most memorable experiences were the picturesque Windmills and the extraordinarily unique shale Schist Village. Also, the breathtakingly beautiful scenery all along the ride made time fly. Our guide, Sergio was delightful, knowledgeable and helpful. He helped us with many questions and thoroughly covered the history of the area and topography during the tour. Sergio told us about a wonderful place to eat and every dish we had was flavorful and well prepared. Wish we could go back to the restaurant again! It was a highlight. Overall, Sergio was the best guide we have ever had and we are well traveled.

This was one of the best tours I have ever been on. Sergio is the MAN, and navigated us around the area so well. Spectacular views and learned a ton. Got to see quite a bit more than I anticipated and had an epic lunch too. Don’t hesitate to book this for yourself or with a small group, you won’t be disappointed

Sergio, our tour guide was very charming and personable! He took the time to explain everything in detail with interesting historic facts. He made sure that our safety was a priority providing a walking stick for my wife. His driving was very precise and safe. Sergio took the time to make reservations to authentic portuguese food was served! We fully recommend Sergio’s services!
