Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Great way to see Sintra
Nov 2017 • Friends
We took the tour on the recommendation of friends who had been there before and thought this would be a far easier way to get around the city, avoid walking steep hills, and see more of what we wanted to see. The tour worked out very well for all of these reasons. Our guide Jose was good but it was occasionally difficult to follow his explanations. He was very nice about showing us the places we wanted to see and also showing us some spectacular views we never would have enjoyed on our own.

Great Experience
Dec 2017 • Couples
Ines and Daniel are both great. We arrived on Sintra around 1 PM and we were able to enjoy the Pena Palace and Quinta da Regaleira. We were also able to watch the sunset at Cabo da Roca (Magical sunset) and then Daniel dropped us at the station in Cascais.

Very pleasant and helpful
Apr 2018 • Couples
Friday 13.4.18. We arrived at Sintra by train without a plan of what we were going to do and found Ines at the station. We immediately liked her and decided to follow her advice and go with her to the Pena Palace and the Regaleira Palace. Everything went well. Ines was very helpful and pleasant and always on time. We really enjoyed the ride and had a lovely day and wish we had been there a couple of hours earlier. Thank you Ines.

Amazing!
Jose was amazing! He drove us through Sintra whilst explaining the history of the area. Jose was very friendly and the van was comfortable (much better then the public bus). Jose surprised us with a pastry when we got back from one of the tours! I recommend this company to everyone! 5 star service!!

Great impromptu tour
We used knight rider tourism to tour the palaces of Sintra with our guide Ruben. He was a great, knew all the best things to see and all the quick spots to get tickets & avoid lines. He Was very knowledgeable of all the history in the region.

We didn’t have a well researched plan and after breakfast got directions from the barista to the tour bus. We decided we wanted a private tour/transportation for a reasonable 20€/person (I believe the public bus round trip is 15€/person that takes you to all the sights).

Note: Ruben was a one man show who drove us from place to place and gave us the history of the region and each place. He was not a tour guide that joined you in the property. (I personally enjoyed this method as it allowed us to spend as much time as we wanted in each place).

Enjoyed Palacio da Pena and Quinta da Regaleira - both fascinating however...
Apr 2018 • Friends
Ines was an enthusiastic and very engaging person. Met her at Sintra station which was not pre-planned. Good taxi driver for major sightseeing locations and happy to extend tour to Cape da Roca and Cascais. However we had to wait an hour after Pena( no mobile communication possible as her battery was flat )) and then after short lunch stop ( good recommendation ) we had to wait a further 20 mins for collection. There was not a lot of historical knowledge shared - perhaps we were expecting too much!
