Every suggestion he made was excellent and he went out of his way to ensure our happiness. We saw Cascais, Cabo di Rocca and Sintra in a day at a leisurely pace. He lead the tour of Pena Palace pointing out fabulous details we would’ve missed. His electric Mercedes van was very comfortable and we’re impressed with his driving skills.Written November 28, 2024

- 10Kat19670 contributionsTruly a Wonderland!We had a wonderful day with Susana! She was kind and knowledgeable and a really good driver! We went to Cascais first, then Quinta Regaleira, then on to Pena Palace. All three were beautiful and very interesting! Susana gave us a great recommendation for lunch in Sintra too. The pickup at our hotel couldn’t have been easier and to top off the day, Susana brought us right to the port so we could get right on our cruise ship. We are so appreciative and loved our day exploring some of Portugal’s coolest places!Written November 24, 2024
- Patricia H0 contributionsFull day Sintra tourThe day was a perfect day! We visited Cascais, Regaleira, and Sintra to include a stop for lunch and the palace. Ricardo was a most gracious driver and guide and was a wealth of knowledge. The restaurant he recommended, Tosca Soloia was absolutely delicious. He accompanied us on the Sintra Palace tour and showed us many things we would have missed. You will be extremely happy to have Ricardo as your guide!Written November 23, 2024

A couple of us have issues with walking and he would constantly made sure they were ok. The whole tour is pleasant and he told us interesting stories about Peña Palace before we entered. Very please with this tour.Written November 22, 2024

- L8777DVandrewd0 contributionsGreat tour of SintraThis was an amazing tour. Fernando was a great tour guide, very knowledgeable about the history. He picked us up on time at our hotel and took us to Sintra. We first went to the Qunita da Regaleira which is a must. You do have to buy tickets for that separate from the tour, but it is well worth it. Pena palace was also beautiful. I highly recommend this tour.Written November 20, 2024
- Roam4803930 contributionsGreat sites, poor tourWhile the sites we saw were definitely worth visiting and worth the trip, the tour was lackluster. There was no agenda and no plan or options for lunch. We meandered for an hour at our first stop while having to wait for the correct times for our next stop. At one point, we had to wait 30-40 minutes while our tour guide had to charge his car. Which is a bit ridiculous, especially while we had just spend 1.5 hours on our own and he had plenty of time to charge. In addition to that delay, the tour was supposed to be 8:30-2:30 and even though we left our hotel about 15 minutes early, we didn't get back until 4 with no lunch stops and had to adjust our afternoon plans. We paid extra for 'Skip the Line' and our tour guide said that didn't get you anything and he needed to talk to the owners about that.Written November 20, 2024
- blakeo9780 contributionsFabulous tour, knowledgeable guide, worth the pricePaolo was so good to us! My wife and I did the full-day private tour, and it was worth every penny. He was prompt but flexible to working in our priorities for the sites, even letting us work out a lunch with a friend who lived nearby. We started with a quick stop in Cascais to see the town, then onto Sintra for the Qunita de Regaleira tour (Initiation Well, the garden, and the mansion). That took us to lunch where we met with a friend in the village, and then he took us up to Pena Palace to skip the lines and see all the good pieces. He then drove us to Cabo de Ropa for a gorgeous sunset. He was very friendly and knowledgeable helping us all along the way. Highly recommend!Written November 19, 2024
- kaheemb20220 contributionsGreat experienceThe tour guide Ricardo domingues was excellent. Was very friendly and made the whole trip fun. He took a bunch of pictures of us and explained the history of every site we visited.Written November 18, 2024

We had Ms Carla as our guide for the Lisbon city tour. As my wife was 28 weeks pregnant she took extra care to look after us throughout. The tour was comprehensive, seeing all the key sites and she was very enthusiastic giving the background to the city and its history. Would highly recommend it, and hopefully will be back in future. Thanks Carla!

We had a great experience on our tour to Sintra with our 2 year old. Our guide (Carla) was amazing at engaging our son every step of the way. We stopped is Cascais to stretch our legs and were able to get a coffee. We stopped on the westernmost point in Europe which was absolutely stunning. Carla organized our lunch and spoke to the staff to ensure our food came quickly so we could maximize our time at Pena Palace. At Pena Palace, Carla helped us navigate through the crowds where to go and told us so much information about the history that we would have never known without her guidance and expertise. It was a fantastic time and absolutely worth it! I would not recommend doing a trip to Sintra with a young child on your own (there are lots of lines, the streets are quite narrow and steep, etc) and Carla made it comfortable and easy for us. We wouldn’t change a thing and are so grateful for our day in Sintra and our wonderful guide and tour.
One tip- We were given the option to buy tickets to Pena palace in advance and I would certainly recommend doing that as it made the day much smoother and allowed us time at the gorgeous Pena palace.

My husband and I came to Lisbon for a wedding and the day we landed was the only day we had available to tour the city for the duration of the trip. Miguel picked us up from the airport and we hit the ground running. Prior to the trip, Miguel was very communicative and share his plans upon our arrive in Lisbon. He was very knowledgeable and answered all of my very random questions. He took us places that were very scenic and shared the beautiful city’s vast history. I will definitely use this service in the future as we plan to bring our children.

Enjoyed our day tour with Mehdi. He was punctual, friendly and did a great job navigating busy, narrow roads. Mehdi was sensitive to my husband’s disability and tailored the day accordingly. He shared a lot of information about Portugal, and you could tell he loved his country. He began by asking what we most wanted to see and blended it all smoothly into the time we had. Also good communication overall with him and the company.

We booked a private driver to tour us around Lisbon during a layover. We originally thought we would have close to 5 hours, however due to our delayed flight, our trip was then shortened to 3 hours. Our driver Sandro quickly adapted his tour so that we could see as much as possible in the short time we had. He was very insightful, sharing great knowledge and stories of the area, and took some great pictures for us, We would highly recommend Sandro and this trip for anyone travelling through Lisbon with a long layover. It added memories, sights and stories that we wouldn’t have experienced sitting in the airport! Thanks Sandro! You’re “The Man”! ☺️

Excellent service from Carla Pereira, she was very kind and attentive, she gave us a great tour of the city considering what we wanted to see and following her recommendations. Throughout the tour he showed us new places and gave curious facts about the history of the city and daily life.
The transportation was impeccable and of excellent size, we were comfortable at all times.
Without a doubt, an experience that is totally worth it for a flexible, pleasant and above all private tour because the tour adapts to your tastes and times and not the other way around like in many other large tours where you adapt to the times and tastes of what has already been planned.

Better impossible. This sums it all up. Our driver was Clara Pereira and taught us Lisbon and surrounding areas (Belem, Cascais, Sintra) in an unbeatable way. We explained that we wanted to visit and she organized it to get everything. I saved us several queues, found us a great restaurant to eat, if we arrived somewhere late because of the traffic I talked to the staff of the entrance and passed without problems. Nice, with good Spanish and a modern and super clean vehicle.
Fully recommended and if I return to the area I will contract with them again.

We had an incredible day with Paulo as our guide! We were a group of four adults and four young kids (all under three), and Paulo made the entire experience seamless. He was amazing with our children, helping us navigate lines and keeping everyone happy. His knowledge of local history was impressive, and he seemed to know everyone, which made everything go so smoothly. Paulo even bought us delicious pastries when we didn’t have time to stop! He picked us up right from our place in downtown Lisbon, and his service was affordable, professional, and warm. He is a gem, we would definitely hire him again!

Carla was an amazing tour guide. She was very accommodating especially with our 18 month old son. We went at a comfortable pace, she helped us get a nice place to eat lunch that had a high chair, took a lot of great photos of our family at popular locations, and even entertained our son along the trip. ☺️
The amount of history and pausing to take in the views was perfect.
The van was very comfortable and the seats worked perfectly with our US style car seat latch system.

We booked a full-day private tour through Swingo with Andre. Andre made the arrangements, booked the driver (Pedro) and answered all of our questions promptly.
Pedro was our driver. He arrived exactly on time at the pick up location and took us to all the beaches we wanted to see north of Cascais, then south across the bridge to Caparica, then to have lunch at a local place just off the beach; the food was great! He then suggested we stop on our way back to Lisbon to see the Cristo Rei. It was an amazing trip, and we had day that more than fulfilled our expectations.
I highly recommend Swingo, and especially our wonderful driver Pedro.
