This tour was amazing mostly due to our tour guide Cesar. His knowledge of the history of Lisbon, Sintra was amazing. He is a great driver and knows his way around perfectly. Also, Very nice car. He made this tour very interesting and enjoyable.

For this price, I would expect more information and history. This I Was more of a private driver hired to take you around. The tours inside the different cities are not included. You are left to figure things out on your own. Better if I did a group tour

There are not words to express our happiness, and gratitude for the most amazing day that Cesar gave to us. He arrived promptly, with a beautiful, immaculate car and as we drove to Sintra he explained the history of Portugal to us. We arrived in Sintra before the crowds, and he sent us off with recommendations and tips to make our time as perfect as possible. We continued on, and as we did we truly felt that we gained a friend that day. Cesar is someone who we would gladly open our home to anytime, he has so genuine, and so passionate about his home, his work, and ensuring that we had the best experience possible. Our time in Cascais was so wonderful, that we returned the next day. Cesar also took the time to send us an extensive list of his personal recommendations for restaurants and other sites to visit, which was such a nice personal touch. I highly, highly recommend, and urge you to book this private day tour, as it was certainly a highlight of our two week trip. We could not stop talking about what a wonderful, and memorable time Cesar provided us, and we cannot thank him enough!

We had an amazing time with Pedro and would highly recommend booking this tour. Pedro was so knowledgeable about Lisbon and answered all of our questions. If you’re looking for a fun time visiting Sintra and the beautiful coastline then this is the tour for you.

I recommend this tour. Very well organized. César is a very kind, professional guide with a great knowledge of Portuguese history and culture. A private tour with an impeccable car. It was a wonderful day, the best way to visit Sintra and Cascais is without a doubt with RM CESAR. Thank you very much for the excellent day.

Highly recommended activity to experience the best of Sintra and Cascais in 1 day in luxury and peace of mind. Caesar was more than just a chauffeur/guide, he was a proud ambassador of Portugal who made us seriously plan another trip back to Portugal soon. His passion and devotion to ensuring we enjoyed the trip is unparalleled to any I’ve seen before. We had such an amazing time the whole day with his company. Thank you Caesar

We had an amazing day with CesaR! He was always punctual, friendly, and very knowledgeable and informative of the country and tour sites. He effortlessly had our tour planned whereas we were at least 15 to 30 minutes ahead of the crowds and gained access to the sites with the least amount of walking. He is truly an amazing tour guide! Additionally, he added a stop at the end of our day, and made a few inquires on our behalf without concern. Thank you CesaR for a wonderful day. We hope to return to Lisbon one day, and we will definitely reach out!

This tour to Sintra and Cascaids anf Cabo de Roca was wonderful. The tour company RM Cesar was the perfect one. They sent a beautiful Mercedes E class and a knowleageable driver, Christina, who was wonderful. Christina shared a lot of great details about each visit. They arrived early and ensure the tour went as planned. Thank you!
