“Our guide, Tiago, was absolutely exceptional. Not only is he incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about what he does, but he also has a fantastic personality—funny, engaging, and genuinely kind. He made the entire day enjoyable, relaxed, and full of fascinating insights that we would never have discovered on our own. The visit to Pena Palace, both inside and outside, was the highlight. Without a guide, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed or rushed, but Tiago helped us appreciate every detail, without being boring at all. If you're considering whether a guided tour is worth the extra cost: it absolutely is. The value, knowledge, and personalized experience make all the difference. I…”

“We had a great time on this tour. We have used Viator for a few other tours when vacationing and all of the tours were great! Eddy was our guide and he did a good job of driving us all around, leading us through the Peña Palace ( wish we had more time there!), taking pictures of us at all the stops, and even made a little video for us. We were among the first people to enter the Peña Palace which was wonderful as it got very crowded quickly. It’s a great place to see. We also loved the drive along the coast and stopping for the views in…”
