3-Night Private Tour van Lissabon, Sintra, Cascais, Estoril, Óbidos, Nazaré en Fátima

Onze gids / Portugese ambassadeur Joel was fenomenaal! Hij nam ons mee naar alle belangrijke historische bezienswaardigheden, maar ook naar de meest verbazingwekkende locaties buiten de gebaande paden met een prachtig uitzicht. De restaurants die we bezochten waren lokaal met echte Portugese gerechten met verse vis, kaas, brood en wijn, gewoon heerlijk! ! ! We hadden een bewolkte / regenachtige dag en hij wisselde dingen zodat we ondanks het weer het meeste uit de dag haalden. We gingen verder naar Porto op eigen gelegenheid nadat de driedaagse tour was voltooid en Joel gaf ons waardevolle feedback over bezienswaardigheden in Noord-Portugal. Joel was deskundig en je kon zijn passie en liefde voor de geschiedenis en bezienswaardigheden van zijn land zien. Deze ervaring volledig aanbevelen! ! !

My wife and I both 31 years old and from NYC had an absolutely wonderful time on this tour in August 2018, which was operated locally through My Lisbon Holidays. We ended up booking the private tour because the group tour we initially were planning on was fully booked. Wow, were we glad we did the private tour! A huge unexpected benefit is that European group tours are usually in multiple languages. For example, at another point during the vacation, we tried a group tour during which the guide translated everything in Portuguese, Spanish and English, and this constant back-and-forth become very dense. So splurge a little and do a private tour. They even book the hotel for you and pick you up and drop you off each day - how convenient. On this 3-night private tour, we were greeted at the airport by the amazing Joel Oliveira. We had a blast! He first dropped us off at the hotel and then whizzed us around Lisbon, explaining the history and culture in a fun way that delighted the different tastes of my wife and me. There was a great balance between walking around the city with the guide and driving to different stops, which was nice because it was hot the first day. Within 24 hours, we went from being completely unfamiliar with Portugal to having a huge increase in knowledge of the locale and comfort with our surroundings. The second and third days were spent on day trips outside Lisbon to some of the most beautiful places we had ever seen. We had delicious lunches at traditional Portuguese restaurants and sampled delicacies we otherwise would not have tried on our own. The logistics and planning could not have been better. It was so much fun! We loved experiencing Portugal with the incomparable Joel Oliveira!
