“Diana Margaret and I would like to thank you and your team for the excellent job putting together our tour. We had a wonderful time in Portugal. From the moment we arrive until the time we left everything was great. Our highlights were: 1) the hotel Britannia in Lisbon was perfect, the staff were great. 2) our tour guide in Lisbon was excellent and provided us with helpful insights to Lisbon. We enjoyed the Fado performance. 3) Sintra and Belem were wonderful. We wish we could have spent an extra day in Sintra simply because there was so much to see and do. 4) Coimbra was nice but we arrived on Sunday and most of the stores were closed and there was not much to see there except the University students all dressed up parading in the streets. Our tour guide there was very good. The hotel was good although we found the hallways  and lighting in the hotel was dark. If we could do it over we would of preferred to go straight to Porto. 5) We loved Costa Nova, the beaches there were wonderful. 6) we really enjoyed Obidos, while Alcobaca were nice to see – a quick drive through. 7) Porto was nice and we enjoyed the hotel there. It rained for most of our stay there so the Port wine tour was a nice break. 8) Nazare was very nice.  We tried to go into the Celeste restaurant suggested but there was no room. 9) We really loved the Pousada de Belmonte. The location was great and the views wonderful. 10) Sortelha and Monsanto were interesting and we enjoyed strolling through the villages 11) Evora was very good, and we enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The day of our wine tour was a perfect day. The tour and specifically the lunch was excellent. This was followed by a nice spa afternoon at the hotel. 12) The drive down to the Algrave was great. We stopped at Amoreira beach, Arrifana beach and Amado beach for lunch. 13) the Pousada de Sagres was a wonderful location and a very nice hotel. The only comment I would have here is that the hotel needs some upgrading. Also some of the staff there were excellent while some like the housekeeping staff we had to ask to have our room cleaned. We had dinner at the Vila Velha restaurant and we would highly recommend this restaurant, it was a wonderful experience. 14) While staying in Sagres we did visit Lagos several times but did not go as far as Tavira. By this time in our trip we wanted to just enjoy the beaches around Sagres. Tavira was too far given the short time we had. 15) The nature hike we took in Sagres was excellent. We would highly recommend this hike to anyone. We enjoyed every minute with our tour guide. 16) Overall the Portugal experience was great. The food, people and scenery were great. Thank you again for all your help putting this tour together for us. I am sure we will be coming back to Portugal.”
