Overview of your Lisbon tour

A mix between history and nature this tour was designed by me to be an intensive trip to the past. Our king's summer resort where the European aristocracy spent their summer time during the 19th Century. Romantic architecture, Nature and pastry shops will be included on this tour. In this tour we dont visit palaces inside (just sightsee from outside). We'll try pastries at the historical pastry shop in Sintra, drive the mountain of Sintra to reach the western most point of Europe mainland (Cabo da Roca). Stop at the famous summer village of Cascais and return to Lisbon by the coastal road. All the tour is constantly commented by me and I will introduce the history of the sights before we visit. Avoid lines means ill choose the best route, stops and sights to turn your tour more comfortable.

Great time getting to know the area on our first excursion here. Gonzo is affable and knowledgeable and is the consummate guide.

Once again Gonzo gave us a beautiful tour of Sintra and a drive along the coast. Drove us to an unbelievable place on a mountain top with panoramic views of the ocean-WE WERE THE ONLY ONES THERE! Truly special. Book this man now-don't hesitate.

Gonzo was great! Very personable and knowledgeable. We have been on many great tours by locals and he's the best by far. Great FUN tour. Our only regret is that we didn't find him sooner so we could book another tour with him. Highly recommended.
