My wife & I has a bespoke tour organised. We were collected in a cool 4x4 jeep and driven around the west coast of Portugal. From Lisbon to Sintra and then to Cabo de Roca. Simply beautiful. The tour guide was excellent and gave us space (and info when we asked). Reasonable prices and excellent communication. 5/5

With only 2 full days in Lisbon, I wanted to book a tour that would allow us to see as much as possible. The most popular tours on TripAdvisor are the walking tours, however in the 4 hours they allow to only cover one, possibly two of the most popular neighborhoods in Lisbon, I kept scrolling until page 4 of tours when I came across THIS tour from Essencia da Latitude. For 5 hours we got every part of Lisbon and in the hot temps, we were privately chauffeured around by Daniel (superb!) but then stopped often for a good view or to see the various monuments or churches that make Lisbon so special. Growing up and still living in Lisbon, Daniel was an excellent guide as he knew everything! We could tell he was very proud of his city and he loved showing us as much as possible. He was a whizz at maneuvering through the vey narrow streets of old Lisbon, but then took us far away from the old part to also include the newer parts of the city. My husband and I later said we never would have been able to cover all of that ground on our own, even if we had stayed in Lisbon longer. After doing this tour, we felt we HAD seen and learned everything there was to about Lisbon and chose to spend out last day outside of the city. I also chose this tour because it was labeled with the “clean and safe” stamp and by being in a private tour we were even more assured that our contact with others would be at a minimum. Both we and Daniel wore masks, which did NOT take away from enjoying the tour, plus Daniel always opened and closed the vehicle door FOR us, also a hygiene measure. Daniel was very proud of the fact that Lisbon is making all attempts to “go green” for a lack of a better word and stops for water included a cooler with a glass flask with water and served in paper cups. We do hope that once the Covid period allows Portugal to fully recover, they can continue this effort and gain more world recognition for it. At the end of our tour, Daniel gave us many recommendations for restaurants and sightseeing and followed up per WhatsApp to make sure we had our answers and to thank us again for allowing him to show us Lisbon. We have never had such a friendly, interesting and downright good person as a tour guide before and we HIGHLY recommend Daniel and Essencia da Latitude. In closing I would just like to say that overall, we as Swiss felt SAFER in Portugal than we do here in our own country. The Portuguese continue to take the Covid situation very seriously and sanitizing and mask wearing have become the norm there, even out in the open streets...it became second nature to us and a small price to pay for being able to stay healthy and enjoy traveling in such a beautiful country as Portugal!!!!

You know when you visit a good friend in a far-away place and they say "Yeah, I'll take the day off and we'll go somewhere cool and eat great food and see some interesting sights! I'll pick you up tomorrow at 9! p.s. wear shorts, it's gonna be a warm day" ? Well that's a tour with David Monteiro! First and foremost, David is one of the friendliest and easiest to talk with tour guides I've ever known, it's like we've known him for years. His knowledge of his own country is great, and his willingness to create a tour itinerary specific to your whims is wonderful. He knows 'that little hidden restaurant that makes fantastic (x) for lunch' which we'd *never* find on our own. His black van is awesome - spacious, clean, and big windows to see out of. Did I mention he speaks 5 languages!? His english is absolutely flawless, and his willingness to help us with our own learning of Portuguese language and its unique pronunciations is so very much appreciated. We've done a couple of other day-trip tours with David in previous weeks, too. Would give David 6 stars if I could.

I highly recommend this company. They arranged transport for 9 of us from Lisbon to Seville and an excellent tour guide in Evora on the way. We also stopped at a winery. Everything was exactly as described to us.

On our first trip to Lisbon we made a private tour wine tasting with Your local tours. Our guide Joao was excellent. He took us to visit 3 different wineries where we tasted wine and chatted with the producers. All the wineries were welcoming og had interesting stories to tell about their winemaking. Our guide took us to lunch at a local restaurant in one of the villages where we had really good portuguese food, and driving between the wineries he told us lots of stories about portuguese history and how it is to live in Portugal today. All in all we had a wonderful day!

Sintra is a beautiful & romantic town in Lisbon. A day trip to Sintra & the Penna palace has left me with replenished energy and superb sensual booster rather than a days physical energy drain out, touring the whole place! Being the last palace built of the 19th century, it has a mix of modern majesty and the ancient mix of architecture. The surrounding forest designed & created with more than 2000 species of trees brought from all over the world, gives us the peaks of freshness, when you walk through the woods. Walking uphill to the Cross at the highest point of the hill was a thrill. Apart from the Sintra town hop-in hop-off tour buses, you have a seperate bus that operates as hop-in & off, inside the penna palace hill gates. Start early from Lisbon to Sintra to breathe in a lengthy time in the Penna palace & the woods and not to miss, the Cape Roca which is the western most edge of the European continent overlooking the Atlantic ocean. You get a train to Sintra from Rossio metro station at Placa Avenida. Organised tours to Sintra from Lisbon are quite expensive. Visit to the Moorish castle can be optimal and a personal choice.
