Great tour. Highly recommended!

Published on Oct, 2024

Violet is the one of the best tour guides that we had ever had. She is so personal, knowledgeable, and funny, and a great driver, too! We've learnt a lot about Portugal itself, and the country's history. The itinerary was very well balanced between guided tours and free time. And did I mention that the lunch was simply delicious?

Tour guide made the day five stars!

Tour guide (Violeta) was lovely and a wealth of knowledge about all we were seeing. Having her available to educate and answer questions was essential to the experience! Add in her great personality and driving it made for a great day and an awesome tour.

Great trip

My husband and I had the pleasure of having Hernan as our guide. Hernan is very personable, entertaining and knowledgable. We visited many sites with enough free time at each site for a quick look around. The lunch provided exceeded our expectation. Thank you Hernan for a great trip!
