Best Tour Company
I was in Portugal for my 50th and this was the best part of my trip. Susana was amazing. Great customer service, attention to detail, patient and very knowledgeable. The vehicle was spotless and we felt like we were with a friend or close family member..She made us so comfortable during our first encounter with her at our hotel pickup. I knew immediately that we had picked the best company. She even customized our tour at the last minute and is passionate about what she does. She went above and beyond to ensure that we maximized our experience. I have already referred her to several friends and colleagues of all ages. I will be going back with my elderly parents next year and will certainly book again with her company. I would rate the company and services a 10 out of 10.
