Private Tour: The Mystical, Magical, Medieval Town of Sintra with tickets and lunch

Hugo gave the best experience

Hugo was amazing! He let us design the day, and adjusted our stops based on our preferences. He gave a lot of insight to the Portuguese culture, recommended places to try in Lisbon and Sintra. He took us along the coast and amazing views of Cacais. He’s very personable and 100% fluent in English. If you can request him, he makes the day.

Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your words. It was a wonderful day!!! All the best for you and next family member. Hope to so you again. Regards, Hugo

Private Custom Day Trip -- Sintra

While in Lisbon last week, we knew we wanted to see Sintra and a few beaches during our trip. We searched dozens of sites, companies, etc. looking for the exact trip we wanted that would be within our budget. After days of looking, I decided to reach out to Knight Riders to inquire about a private tour. The company worked with me to help plan a private tour that hit every spot we wanted to go to. This included extensive email communication, back and forth over multiple emails deciding where to go and within what timeframe, and at what price. Ultimately, we decided on a trip that allowed us to see the three main attractions we wanted to see in Sintra in the AM (Pena Palace, Moors Castle and Quinta de Regeleria), and then allowed us to spend the afternoon on the coast, highlighted by an "off the beaten path" beach that we wanted to see, as well as Boca do Inferno, Cabo da Roca, and more. On the day of the tour, Ruben picked us up in a large van, giving us a ton of space (it was only my girlfriend and I). The ride to Sintra (and all day) was easy and comfortable, and the van was nice -- even had a cord to play music. Ruben was great conversation throughout the day, and knowledgeable when it came tohistory of Sintra. Highlight was his extensive conspiracy acumen regarding the Quinta estate. Ruben worked with us to ensure we hit all of our spots in Sintra, and that we had a local meal outside of tourist area as well. Once we headed toward the coast, Ruben showed us more than we couldve asked for, took great pictures, and was determined to help us find Praia da Ursa... the off the beaten path beach mentioned above. Once we found it, we had roughly 1000 feet climbing down to reach the beach. Ruben was happy to join us, and made sure we were safe during the climb. The beach was incredible, well worth the climbs down and up, and was mostly locals as opposed to hoards of tourists. Finishing the day at Cabo de Roca, Ruben showed us the beaches of Cascais, and hungout with us as we enjoyed the end of our day. Had such a great time, we even all had dinner together in Cascais after the tour had "technically" ended. All in all, spent about 14 hours with Ruben and in Sintra/on the Coast, and we could not have had a better experience. We made a friend in Portugal, and we saw incredible sights that exactly lined up with what we wanted to see/do. Absolutely a must do in Lisbon.

Sintra Day Tour

Ruben was by far one of the best tour guides. He was very knowledgeable about all the history and went out of his way to ensure that we saw everything we wanted to in the short period of time we had. Thank you for everything! I would highly recommend Ruban if you ever require a tour guide in Lisbon.

Private Sintra tour (close to a full day)

I started researching a day before my flight to Lisbon on half day Sintra tours. Due to my limited availability and inflexibility in my schedule I was looking for a quick half day tour to Sintra. I found a couple of tours but the minimum to book them was 2 travelers and they wont book just me since I was 1 person. I came across Knight Riders and called them to see if this was possible. Ines, the owner of this tour company was extremely helpful and accommodating. She offered me a private tour for a reasonable cost. She had amazing customer service and very responsive. After getting into Lisbon, she hooked me with her finance, Diego, who was the guide. 2 of my coworkers ended up joining me on this tour. Diego was quite knowledgeable and knew exactly what he was doing and really understanding what we liked. AMAZING service!! Will definitely recommend to my friends and coworkers!!

Great Sintra Tour

Jose was great. My husband and I went with my 79 year old parents. Although the weather didn’t cooperate at times Jose was prompt, and explained things well. He was flexible and full of information. His van was clean. He took us to a great old school restaurant out of town after the tours that was cozy and had excellent food and service. The fireplace was a welcome site after the cold rain!!! Highly recommend!!! Don’t try to do this town alone!
