3-Night Private Tour of Lisbon, Sintra, Cascais, Estoril, Sesimbra and Arrábida

7-day tour Lisbon, porto, et al.

We actually had a seven -day tour which started at Porto and went all the way down to Lisbon and near-by town. It was a private tour we arranged with My Lisbon Holidays and they did an excellent job. Our Guide in Porto was Tiago for a day and the rest was with Joel. They were very knowledgeable indeed of the history. Hotel was marvelous! D. Garcia

<p>Disappointed in the tour as they seemed ill-prepared for the weather. We arrived on a Saturday and had rain on Sunday. So Sunday became kind of a wash out because they didn't really know what to do with us since our tour guide did not want to walk around in the rain. We didn't mind the rain and were open to walking around, however. Also, the palace got moved from Sunday to Monday because of the rain, so we never got the tile or the wine experiences advertised, which we didn't realize until later. I also won't recommend it since on the first day when we arrived in Lisbon, we were primarily driving around the city, which makes a long day of travel even longer - some of our family were falling asleep in the car due to the soft slow music that was constantly playing. Also, they advertise a luxury apartment overlooking a square. Our did not - it overlooked a side street that was a five or ten minute walk from a square.</p>

Response from the operator: <p>TOUR OPERATOR COMMENT: Thank you for your review. Regarding the weather, of course we are fully prepared for all kinds of weather. We always try to adapt the best we can the tours in order to suit our customer's experience. The guides provide a detailed list of options and explain everything to our guests so we can adjust the tour itinerary, as needed. Of course, if it’s raining too much the guide will adapt the tour to have a better experience instead of providing the exact itinerary as stated where the group will be wet and unconfortable. This is why some items were skipped on the itinerary, but our guide made this clear when the options were presented to you.</p> <p>Additionally, we think that having soft jazz music playing in the background helps our guests better enjoy the experience rather than noisy music. However, all our guests are welcome to ask our guide to change the music if they wish.</p> <p>Your apartment didn't overlooked a square because you were a group of 5 people that required a larger room that usual. However, you were still provided with a luxury apartment with a lovely terrace at a 5 minutes walk from the square.</p> <p>We are sorry these items seem to have spoiled your entire experience with us as we always strive to provide our most excellent service to our customers.</p>

<p>Perfect way to start visit to Portugal. The guide gives so much information those first few days that can be used in the rest of you travels. I would say I got a taste of the people, life, and the food. Loved the city and our guide</p>

<p>Overall, a very personable and comfortable experience with our tour guide, Joel introduing beautiful Lisbon during the 3 days tour.</p> <p>Some of the locations we visited are quite an out-of-ordinary sites eg we went to the cliff to have a good view of the ocean and feel of the strong sea breeze, that we will have no chance to visit if left on our own. <br/> Joel also stopped the car specifically at strategic location for a bird eye view of the uncommon tourist scenic spots. </p> <p>Fado at the restaurant is also a welcoming and variety although we didn't know how to appreciate.</p> <p>Tour guide also introduced us to good local food like the mustard pie at Balem and the Cherry Liqor.<br/> All in all, we enjoyed our trip very much and this good memory will stay with us for the longest time.</p>
