Dare Lison recommended and arranged our private full day tour. We have spent an amazing day with our guide Goncalo, he has been very friendly, careful and knowledgeable. He made us discover Sintra and suroudings areas in a different way, he really knows the most interesting sights to see and visit all day long, he has shared with us his passion for his country history. i dont think we would have seen all those places by ourselves, and we have learnt so much! Not really used to take a private tour, but the experience was great Service was perfect, we highly recommend Goncalo!

We invite you to join us on a tour along the Tagus River. Come and visit Lisbon in a different way, be amazed by it’s colours, the way they spread over the hills and touch the river. We will sail from the Doca de Santo Amaro (Santo Amaro Dock under the bridge), to the Praça do Comércio, one of the most beautiful plazas in the word. From there we can see the old neighborhoods of Lisbon: Chiado, Baixa, Castelo and Alfama. Then it’s time to cross to Cacilhas on the other side of the river to get the widest possible view of the city. Sail close to the Cristo Rei on the south bank, cross under the bridge and sail to Belém to see its tower. On the way back you will see how the people of Lisbon love to walk, sit and chat by the side of the river; usually the banks are full of people enjoying the sun, the river and boats passing by. You will have plenty of time to take amazing pictures of the city and of this incredible experience.

Inclusions: White and rosé wine, cheese and charcuterie, Bottled water

This tour is a must for any visitors to the Lisbon area. Our guide, Tania, was amazing. She was so welcoming and knowledgeable and made sure we had the best day possible. Due to Covid-19 restrictions there were only 4 of us on the tour - myself and my sister and another couple (who were also absolutely lovely and we became friends). Sintra and Cascais are so beautiful and the tour allowed us ample time to explore both areas. Tania gave us great tips on the best photo opportunity spots and also on the best places to eat. The area was very quiet compared to pre-Covid times, but it was really nice to see Sintra, the palace and surrounding area without hordes of tourists - no queues. We wore our masks at all times so everyone felt safe from a Covid point of view. I cannot fault the service and the tour. Great value and amazing to see these places with so few tourists about. One of the most beautiful areas I have ever seen. It is quite hilly so be prepared for some walking - but you can always get a lift up to the palace grounds if you have limited mobility, so don't let that put you off.
