    Didn’t like being 'dumped' in towns for a couple hours. Would have preferred to get to hotel earlier. Also, felt as though at all the higher end places that were on the tour, that we were there to serve the staff. One location for two nights was basically in the middle of nowhere so we were limited to services at that expensive hotel and to their hours of service. Also, not impressed that dinner hour was late, at the choice of the tour leader, without clients being asked when they would like to eat. As most of the clientele were from Western countries, most would have liked to eat earlier, Guide was very good although historical information was often repeated. Driver was excellent. A lot of places seemed like more of the same. I would not recommend this tour.

    Tour was good in relation to the hotels and food, except for the hotel Casa das Pipas which did not have room for us in the main hotel and we were located 300 mtr away from the rest of the group! Itinerary was loaded with churches and convents, although the activities such as tile painting and cheese tasting were good.

    Both the driver, Joao, and our guide, Justin, were excellent. Meals and hotels were good and the stops were all excellent. We did not receive the tiles we made in Lisbon as promised.

    Good tour. Hotels a little uneven and need to Mike all tour guides as heard to hear, take pics and be spread out or in noisy traffic.
