Volta do Duche 12, 2710-631 Sintra, Portugal
View on Google MapsOur private tour of Sintra was conducted by Anna S. She is the consummate tour guide and personally guided us through Pena Palace in Sitra, Portugal. It is about 45 minutes from Lisbon and is a must see attraction. Her knowledge of the palace was incredible and we never had to strain to hear her describe what we were seeing. Her English is fluent and she speaks other languages as well.
We highly recommend this tour for those that are interested in history. We are experienced travelers, but don’t know a lot about this area in Portugal. Our guide, Diogo, took us through some of the local sites for the day, providing a vast amount of information and great stories about local events and explaining the historical context and significance We traveled with two children ages, 11 and 13 and he tailored the topics and the stops to all four of our interests, he even added a couple things along the route that he thought would be of interest to us. All in all it was a highlight of our trip to this area and I would absolutely recommend this to a friend.

Unforgettable Experience! Diogo’s tour exceeded all our expectations from start to finish. Our guide was an absolute gem—adaptable, incredibly knowledgeable, and tuned in to exactly what we were interested in. Rather than sticking rigidly to a script, he tailored the experience to us, adding unique touches and insights that made the day truly personal and unforgettable. He didn’t just show us the sights—He brought the history and culture to life, and even suggested fantastic additional places for us to explore on our own afterward. We especially appreciated the recommendation for a local restaurant—it turned out to be one of the best meals of our entire trip! The car was a delight to ride in—comfortable, stylish, and added a fun element to the whole experience. Every detail felt thoughtful and elevated. Don’t hesitate—if you have the chance to take this tour, go for it. You’ll be talking about it long after your trip ends!
Everything was wonderful. 🤗👍🥰 We hope to return with more friends to share this experience. Great guide, very professional!
Diogo is an outstanding guide and brought Sintra to life. He created a tour just for our family’s preferences and his passion for Sintra Is contagious. We highly recommend!
Diogo (who speaks perfect english) is a local archeologist with extensive knowledge in the historical ruins of Portugal. He opened my eyes to the Evora region after he noticed my interest in the local economy, culture and religious history. After a few sites were closed for maintenance, we revised my tour. It included the archeological site at the Moorish Castle, church ruins, a regional lunch (Bifana and Chicken soup), a cork factory, the Roman (Diana’s) Temple, the Cathedral with the oldest working organ in Europe, the chapel of bones, storks, miles of olive trees and cork forests! If you want a custom tour off the beaten path with an energetic local who is a great translator…. Diogo is your guy!
Went on a tour with Diogo ( Mr. Local) in Sintra in the new car, if you want a very knowledgeable and fun tour guy Diogo is the guy, his enthusiasm and knowledge would be hard to find anywhere. One of the most rewarding and fun tours I’ve ever been on. Donna Payovich Las Vegas, NV
