Great tour! Our guide Guillerme was friendly and very knowledgeable about food and drink in Lisbon. We visited 6 different places and tasted 6 different drinks from cherry liqueur to port, beer and different types of wine. All the food and wine were really delicious and we tried things and visited places we never knew existed. It was a really enjoyable tour with a great guide. Would highly recommend.

Ms. Noemi was very accomodating, she explained very well all the historical informations on every places we visited/passed by. Sintra is a must see destination! Cabo da Roca Coast & Cascais also took me by surprise. I will definitely recommend visiting those places and the tour. Great job! 😊

Our guide Fatima was excellent and gave us an in-depth history of the development of both Portugal & Lisbon. Advice and information on local areas to visit, bars and restaurants. Be prepared for the length of time you will be on your feet & hilly terrain. Very enjoyable and would recommend

Ms. Maria did a great job explaining the history of Lisbon with a fun approach. The Saiboat Sunset Tour was really unforgettable, my parents & I had a relaxing & fun experience. We highly recommend! 😊

We love to see cities on a Segway, you cover so much ground in a few hours. There are many hills which is always an interesting challenge on a Segway but also fun. The guide was lovely.
