It was a whirlwind day of historical exploration through Pena Palace, Cascais and Sintra Village. Even though it was overcast and foggy most of the day, the trip was amazing - especially with Joao as our guide! He made the trip light, informative & engaging with clarity and transparency with all details for meeting spots and free time. Definitely go to Piriquita if you can to get some baked goods from either bakeries as Joao mentions! It was a wonderful day without overly extended travel time on the bus! Would recommend as tickets for the palace is all paid for and the tour is extra insightful with a guide like Joao!

Our group consisted of us, a couple on their honeymoon and a family w 2 young boys. Miguel was our tour guide and was able to keep us all entertained and on schedule! We walked right past the lines at Pena Palace which was such a benefit! Tasted the treats of Sintra and the saw beauty of Cascais!

My sister and I did this small group tour(8 people) Definitely the way to go. The palace was amazing. I loved that we arrived early before it got busy. This tour included entrance tickets and a guided tour in the palace (many do not) plus some free time. The walk up was a bit of a hike but worth it. There is also a shuttle available for a small fee. Just tell the guide if you want it. Cabo da Roca was crowded but had spectacular views. Our guide gave us a choice of lunch in Cascais on our own or all together at a garden restaurant. We chose the restaurant as a group. I enjoyed conversing with our group from all different places. It did take a little long, not realizing we probably needed to ask for our bill etc. Cascais was pretty with a small beach and many shops. We only had an hour there since we chose the garden lunch but it was fine. Our guide was great. I would definitely recommend this company and tour.

This tour was one of the best ever taken! Our driver/guide was named Andy and he provided so much insight into both the areas we were touring but also Portugal as a whole. Highly recommend. Outstanding
