Best walking tour we've been on! Sandra, our cheerful and perceptive guide, geared it to our interests... shop with retro Portuguese products...charming bakery and coffee shop...incredible views from secret lookouts. Strong wind and rain did not dampen our spirits. Our 20 year old son LOVED it!

40 minute drive on comfortable small bus to get to Sintra (charming shops and National Palace to see). Susanna, our guide, spoke half in English, half in Portuguese for the 7 on our tour. IF you want to see Palace Pena, you cannot do on this tour. Cascais is not quaint village, but nice marina.

Perfect start to our weekend and guide, Matti, was excellent! Matti included bits of his own family history which made it more personal. Midway we stopped time for a coffee break. Outdoor Holocaust exhibit was amazing. We covered the main historical areas but were never bored. Fascinating!!
