We had a wonderful day with our guide Luis. He picked us up at our hotel right on time. He was so kind and knowledgeable about the area. He drove us to the castles in Sintra and helped us purchase tickets then let us go explore on our own and we let him know when we were ready to move on. We then went into the city center for a wine tasting and lunch, both of which were amazing! From there, we went to the coast, and he showed us different locations. At the end of the day, he dropped us off in the city center of Lisbon. This tour was such a great choice. It eased the stress of getting around while getting to see many great sites. Highly recommend!Hsun_Y

Great tour. Alex is a well informed, smart and enthusiastic guide. He had a trainee with him, who was equally kind, smart and a pleasure to have along. They both definitely have a great knowledge of the area. It was fun!
