We had an excellent experience with our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and made sure everyone in the group had enough time to enjoy the experience.
I was travelling with my 12-year-old son, and what I especially appreciated was how attentive the guide was to him. He took the necessary time to talk with him, answered his questions, and gave him the opportunity to have conversations appropriate for his age. My son really enjoyed this and felt included throughout the tour.
The guide was truly exceptional and made the experience enjoyable for everyone. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional, caring, and engaging guide. Thank you for making our day so special! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had the best experience out of all of our travels, Mauro was an absurdly good guide. He knows everything you would want to know about Portugese Culture. A truely great guide!

Mauro was an excellent host and showed both an appreciation of the location and history (as he was a local) and also a willingness to engage with us and understand what we were looking for. All aspects were great, a comfortable car, good conversation, and lots of relevant information about what we were seeing. I would thoroughly recommend using this company.

Today we had the half day tour with Mauro. It was the most amazing experience since we have been in Portugal for the last five days. He is extremely knowledgeable about Sintra and the history of Portugal. By the end of our tour I felt like I had spent the day with a friend. He clearly is passionate about giving tours and teaching guests about Portugal and his hometown of Sintra. I can’t wait to have time for another tour when we come back to visit.

We enlisted Mauro’s help to show us the important sights of both Lisbon and Sintra on 2 separate days in May 2026. We were very comfortable in his air conditioned Mercedes and appreciated a good combination of driving and walking to see the highlights. He is extremely interested and well versed in Portugal’s history. We were amazed at how many details he knew about the various Portuguese royal dynasties, wars, explorers, historical sights, etc and right up to current events.

Mauro tailored the perfect tours for us around both cities. In Sintra, he had prearranged any tickets we required for the Pena Palace and Quinta da Regaleira including the Initiation Well. He also made a reservation for us at a local restaurant for lunch that serves delicious, authentic Portuguese meals.

Mauro is a hardworking, bright and personable young man with a genuine love of history and much pride in his beautiful country. We thoroughly enjoyed both days spent with him and absolutely recommend him as your host and guide while in Portugal.
