Mark was fabulous. Very relaxed and funny guy. Provided lots of great info and legends. Great story teller. This tour hits key spots in Tomar and is a good length to get to know a bit about the city. He was excellent at explaining the defensive parts of the castle. After the tour he sent us info on restaurants to try and info on Porto which is where we were headed a few days later. For an entertaining tour we highly recommend Mark.
