Coses a fer a Portugal

Bought the 48 hour Lisbon city card and redeemed it at the "ask me" counter at Lisbon international airport upon arrival. Convenient and good value if you visit at least 2 museums that are free with the psss per day. Viewed the online guide to plan thd visits to the aggractions. Some attracrions were closed eg Jeronimos monastery was closed due to a strike. Belem tower was closed for rennovation.

Joao was an amazing guide and equally amazing guy. He helped with all our questions, queries and little anecdotes about every place we visited. It was really a great experience, I would highly recommend if you want to fit Sintra and Cascais in one day and not feel rushed.

very beautiful and scenic place. there is alot of walking to do but it is worth it. alot of people there also, be prepared to queue for your turn.

This tour is great if you are short on time and want to get a little sight seeing on the popular attractions. 10/10 would recommend this tour! It definitely makes for a long day and squeezing into a lot of stuff in 8 hours but worth it. Just make sure you have snacks, water, and a good walking shoe because you do A LOT of walking. loved that we got some time to explore on our own too. Emilio, the tour guide was great. He’s a burst of energy and personality! He’s hilarious and kept us entertained and on schedule. The bus driver was lovely since he was able to navigate the roads which were very narrow 😂

Quite unexpectedly, this turned out to be my favourite experience during my three days in Porto. The tour duration was just right, and the audio guide was clear and well-structured in the selected language, although the app did experience a few minor technical issues along the way. The weather was perfect, which made everything even more enjoyable, and the tasting itself was simply delightful. The setting is truly breathtaking: a vibrant, almost surreal garden with roaming animals (including two impressive roosters and even a peacock) overlooking the iconic Dom Luís I Bridge and the Douro River. The service was warm, attentive and knowledgeable, offering insightful explanations of each wine presented. The vintage Port wine, in particular, was a wonderful surprise, sweet, smooth and incredibly enjoyable. As an Italian, if I had the choice, I would happily have my aperitivo here and nowhere else in Porto. Highly recommended!

Even with a 10:30 AM ticket, you'll still have to wait in line for 40-50 minutes if you arrive at 10:15 AM. We recommend arriving earlier to wait. Using the e-voucher is very convenient, and tickets are almost impossible to buy on-site, so we suggest purchasing them online in advance. The corridors inside are beautiful and great for taking photos.

We enjoyed tour with variety of qine testing. Tour guide, Thomas explained history of Porto and economy and industry of Porto. It was insightful. Also a driver Carlos drives very gentle and make the long journey comfortable. Food was good and only thing I would like to mention about a quality of coffee. I didn't drink coffee after a bit of test the coffee and noticed other partisans didn't finish the coffee. Overall a good experience and worth to join the tour.

En el moment que vaig entrar a l'església, vaig pensar que només veuria un espectacle de llums, però no m'esperava endinsar-me en un diàleg sobre el "temps". Les parets de pedra, fredes i massisses, portaven centenars d'anys de pregàries i història, però quan les projeccions es van encendre, les parets van començar a fluir, com si hi hagués vida respirant. Aquells patrons de llum, com una xarxa neuronal, s'estenien per les voltes i pujaven pels pilars, com esquerdes del temps i textures de la memòria. El més impactant no va ser la brillantor dels colors, sinó el moment en què la foscor i la llum s'alternaven. Quan l'espai estava gairebé cobert per línies gris-blanques, i només l'altar brillava lleugerament amb una llum daurada, de sobte vaig entendre què significava la "reverència". No era l'opressió que la religió en si mateixa aportava, sinó la petitesa de l'ésser humà davant la immensa història i l'univers. La tecnologia no va destruir el sagrat, sinó que va afegir-hi una nova capa de llenguatge, permetent que l'antiga arquitectura fos reinterpretada. En mirar cap amunt, vaig sentir que estava en l'eix del temps. A dalt hi havia la llum que fluïa, a baix la pedra silenciosa, i el punt on es trobaven era el meu jo d'aquell moment. Aquest espectacle de llums em va fer reflexionar que els humans sempre, en diferents generacions, busquen la fe de diferents maneres. Abans eren frescos i escultures, ara són projeccions i làsers, però l'essència no ha canviat: encara desitgem ser il·luminats per la llum. En sortir de l'església, no vaig tenir pressa per fer més fotos, sinó que vaig deixar aquella quietud dins meu. Potser el veritable impacte no és la magnificència de la imatge, sinó que em va fer aturar-me breument i tornar a sentir la meva distància amb el món.

Fabulous trip up to the Moorish Castle and one of the highest points in Sintra. Lovely view. We walked up from the historic centre with younger children which took about 50 minutes but they really enjoyed the adventure (although could be a bit far to walk for some - buses, tuk tuk and taxis on offer if not). Highly recommend!

Fàcil de reservar a Klook i encara més fàcil de bescanviar les entrades.

The doors opened exactly 10 minutes ago. We sat down with a glass of wine, and then a video played, followed by two guitarists. A woman and a man each sang a song, and then they sang together at the end. Videos played intermittently, which was a nice touch. The man, in particular, sings very well! We really enjoyed the show! ^^

Our tour guide shared insights into Portugal's history, attentively and thoughtfully looked after our group, and drove very safely. The entire trip was relaxed and enjoyable, and they also took us to great photo spots. We savored a sip of sour cherry liqueur, happily concluding our journey under the sunset in Óbidos.
