Rodrigo was excellent, helpful, and full of information. Few guides are that good. Sinatra is busy but worth seeing. We were glad we had lunch elsewhere as he suggested, though. The other stops were interesting.

Laurence was our tour guide and he was amazing! He knew all the history of the area and some really unique facts. He was patient with the group and made sure we could all hear the explanation for everything. The only thing I'd change about this tour is giving less time in Sintra and more time in Cascais or maybe making it an additional hour or two so that it ends a bit later allowing more time for exploring.

In one world - amazing. We started the day at the Hard Rock met by our new “family member” Filipe. He is probably the best guide I have ever had. So friendly, so knowledgeable. He was entertaining, he was informative, patient and so kind. Our day exceeded our expectations. I say, join the big family and do this tour with Felipe!
