Although the steepness of some of the walks were a little difficult for me, the experience was great, thanks to our guide Menithe(spelling)? From Swingio. He was informative, funny and patient and got us around the huge crowds in Sintra. Thank you for the experience!

Miguel was a fantastic guide! His calm manner made it easy for us to relax and enjoy our day. He managed the logistics of our day in a seamless way, allowing us to linger where we wanted but also keeping us on schedule. He was knowledgable and provided additional detail when asked, his passion for Portugal and history is evident. We were amazed at the way he safely navigated the narrow streets. But most of all he was fun! Thank you for sharing this great adventure with us!

I booked this private tour for my parents and they had an amazing experience from start to finish. Fernando was not only knowledgeable about the history and culture of Sintra, but also passionate and friendly. The itinerary was well-planned, allowing them to see the highlights of Sintra. I highly recommend Fernando to anyone looking for a memorable and enriching travel experience in Sintra.

Miguel was very kind and accommodating to do whatever we wanted. My parents are slow moving and have difficulties with stairs and he took his time and drove us as close as he could to entrances.
