We spend a long afternoon and evening with Filipe and it was wonderful. I highly recommend him. We visited Sintra and the amazing Perla Palace , the Quinta Regaleira and had the lovely pastry specialty of Sintra. Filipe is a very pleasant charming person to be with, he is very knowledgeable about, the area, the sites, the history and so much more. Time flies with him. We ended the evening in a great fish and seafood restaurant hanging on the side of a cliff Azenhas do Mar. If you are in Lisbon take one of his tours and enjoy.

Without a plan, 4 friends and I went on a day trip to Sintra in March. Already got off the train some guides were waiting and wanted to lead us through Sintra. But we wanted coffee first. On the way to the cafeteria, another guide offered us his tour - but we went on. Because we wanted coffee. However, this guide did not let up and so we booked a tour with him after the coffee. Not knowing that this day would be the funniest of our semesters abroad, we set off on the trip. Ruben showed us untouristic places, combined with a lot of knowledge which he taught us. Spontaneously we went to cabo da roca - unbelievable! All in all a wonderful day with great experiences! Highly recommended! Thank you Ruben!

Then, we will start our journey towards the famous Benagil Cave. Along the way, we will see beautiful caves.
