My wife and I didn’t realize when we booked that this would turn into such a private, personalized adventure. From start to finish, our guide went above and beyond—sharing stories, local tips, and making sure we were comfortable every step of the way. It wasn’t just a tour, it was an experience. If you’re looking for something authentic and memorable in Portugal, this is it.
Thank you Anastasia!

We booked an early access to see Pena Palace and Sintra. We were surprised to be the only guests on this tour and we got to see the palace before anyone was allowed in. Thank you, Anastasia for taking good care of us during the tour. Every bit of the tour was amazing. Another reason why we always book our tours with Walks.

What an experience! Raquel E did a great job giving us an exclusive tour of Pena Palace. It was so informative and we were completely alone for an hour�� it was a beautiful time because when we got out, there were loads of people in line. I’m so glad we got to skip. She told us about the history and even let us stop for the famous sintra pastry. I highly recommend!
