For starters our experience was great and our guide José was spectacular. Unfortunately our wine tasting was canceled due to the fact they weren’t open. But on the flip side José went above and beyond and even gave us a bottle of wine at the end as a genuine gift. Which was just a cherry on top.

Sintra is a nice small town with a big history with the castles around.Definitely it is must see in Portugal. Wine tasting was amasing,you can try a really rare wines from a special terroir from old wineyard.Special thanks to Jose,our guide.

great tour! We had a great day, full-day program and Jose listens carefully to the wishes of the group. Jose is very good at what he does, knows how to tell something about everything and does it with a lot of passion!

Lots of uphill walking so make sure you bring comfortable shoes. Excellent views and great people!

José is the best guide! Full of great discussions, lots of history and fun. thanks again
