Trip well planned ,well executed. Excellent time we had.
It was great, my wife and I really had a great time. I like the orginization the staff has as well as the routes that the tour takes stopping along in small places to the destinations. I have seen this around the places in the world I have used this services in Viator.
Excellent job, I will use this again definetely.
This is an excellent day trip from Lisbon, although it does not match the Viator description. You start at Pena Palace, a fascinating combination of 16th-century monastery and 19-century palace, and continue to Sintra for an excellent lunch, with time to tour Sintra Palace on your own.
The drive back along the coast is gorgeous, even in November, with a couple of short sightseeing stops, most notably at Cabo da Roca, westernmost point in Europe.
I would definitely recommend this trip.
Delightful and informative in every way!
We had a thoroughly enjoyable day. The arrangements from hotel pick up to return went without a hitch. And our tour guide was really excellent - switching effortlessly from English to Portuguese to Spanish, very informative, and patient! We enjoyed the lunch too. We will strongly recommend this trip to our friends.
PS Our congratulations to Sr Pinto, our driver. How he manoeuvres that bus through those narrow streets is a mistery to me....
This trip was well worth every penny! From start to finish a truly magical time. The guide was witty and informative being knowledgeable about the palace and surrounding area. We were captivated by the palace. Sintra was picturesque, lunch scrummy. The coastal run made me nostalgic for Cornwall being every bit as lovely. This was a trip well worth taking.
Very nice tour.
My wife and I really enjoyed this day tour. It included lunch and I believe this is a great deal along with the amazing places we visited. The tour guide was very informed and professional. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Portugal for the first time. I will definitely take more tours with Viator. I was impressed with the way they organized the tour which went very smoothly from the time they picked us up from our hotel until they dropped us back close to the hotel.
Although we started off by spending 50 minutes in the van to collect people (we should have just taken a metro ride to the starting point), the trip turned out just fine. The guide (Dora) was knowledgeable and personable, the sights were worth seeing, and the lunch was good. We spent just the right time in each place, and there was no wasted time in shopping stops enroute.
Most enjoyable day with multiple stops at the Castle of Penne, Sintra, Cabo de Raco, and Cascius. Our guide was most knowledgeable and shared excellent and entertaining information at each venue. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone interested in witnessing the beautiful scenery and rich history consistent with this area of Portugal just outside of Lisbon.
Brilliant day ran like clockwork with great tour guide.Sintra was the highlight of our visit to Lisbon so even if you cannt do a day do the Palace!
wonderful, very organized and great tour guide
The Palacio de Pena is indeed a fairytale palace coloured in hews of terracotta, ochre and yellow! It was very pleasant spending time in the village of Sintra, some great shots just calling out to be taken! We had a really sunny day for the trip so Cabo da Roca the most western point in Europe was simply stunning. Guide informative and pleasant.
Excellent, though the weather was bad. It was a very enjoyable trip.
Had a great trip up into the mountains to the castle and to the coast afterwards. Good commentary and an enjoyable day.
