Our guide, Vasco, was very knowledgeable and friendly. He kept a good pace too. I recommend going to Sintra, Cabo da Roca and Cascais because it's surprising that these places exist within a short drive of Lisbon. Only negative was that the van was too small, I was squeezed next to someone else the whole time which and that made me feel claustrophobic towards the end.

Booked this trip before arriving which from experience is always a bit of a lottery one reason was it picked us up from our hotel rather than having to find a meeting point and it was significantly less expensive than others. Our guide arrived bang on time and after picking up the other travelers we headed off. Our guide was great polite informative and made the whole day enjoyable. One more thing the communication and help was excellent.
