Personalized city tours with local hosts.
Our day with Sofia was absolutely perfect! All I can say is trust her ideas and be willing to adjust your plan to her suggestions. She knows what she is talking about! We started early per her suggestion and thankfully we did. We took a train from Lisbon into Sintra to meet Sofia and begin at Peña Palace. We arrived before the big tourist crowds and thankfully we did! As our tour through the palace was over, thousands of people were in line. We had lunch on the oeanfromt at a lovely Portuguese seafood restaurant that had incredible food with perfect views! We ended the trip by going to the Capuchin Convent and so glad we did. Seeing how the monks lived at the time and learning their history was so intriguing. The drive up the mountain to the convent as beautiful. We basically had this place to ourselves and it was the perfect complement to the palace. Zero regrets about this tour with Sofia!
We had a great time with Lucia and she is so knowledgable. We loved every minute together! Highly recommend.
It was an interesting, informative tour. Lucia is very knowledgeable about the history and modern Portugal. She has a friendly inclusive attitude and we had a great time. We learned more than expected. We would do it again tomorrow. We highly recommend a tour with Lucia whatever the subject.
Lucia is kind and knowledgeable, and the tour was well planned and done at the perfect pace.
