We had the best day with our private driver Bruno and our talented guide Elvira. The places we visited were magical, but they made the trip EXCELLENT! They met us at our hotel just before our meeting time and made sure we were comfortable in the spacious, new, clean vehicle. Elvira asked a few questions about our interests and things we'd like to know more about, and then throughout the entire day she and Bruno catered to those interests (art history, regional history, and some fine dining :)). We had an in-depth tour of Sintra, focused on the Pena Palace. We learned so much from Elvira! We then had lunch in Cascais at a fabulous restaurant that Elvira recommended; we reconnected with them after our lunch to see Cascais in depth. We had fun conversations along the way. Our final stop was the Palace of Queluz, which was another tour de force in terms of learning and history. Bruno and Elvira were outstanding guides and hosts! Ask for them specifically for an amazing day.
