“We were very lucky to have Andre as our guide as he was excellent! The tour itself was good, it was a small group so we had plenty of information given. The transport was very comfortable and the other 2 travellers were friendly which always makes a difference. Visiting Sintra and the Pena Palace is to be recommended, as is this tour company.- Go2Lisbon. We were pleased that we only visited the outside of the palace, which is really what you need to see, when we saw the huge queue of people waiting to get inside. We then visited Cabo da Roca and Cascais, delightful!”
