Best experience ever!!!
Fantastic tour.
It was a great idea to contact Van Go Tourism as they where very helpful planning our holidays in Portugal.It was suggested that we visit Sintra, a fairytale village with very interesting monuments that are classified by UNESCO as protected cultural landscape, where we had the privilege of having a private guided tour of the following monuments: Regaleira Estate and Pena Palace.
Cabo da Roca was a pleasant surprise as it is the most western point of the European continent with breathtaking views and luscious scenery.
Cascais is a luxury city situated near Lisbon that is located by the coast and where many expats live because of the quality of lifestyle. There are gorgeous restaurants, cafes and cosy beaches.
Van Go Tourism was a fantastic choice because they are very helpful in organising our stay in Portugal and the staff is very nice and speak fantastic English, always aware of our needs and also suggesting other points of interest and restaurants that we can visit during our stay in this beautiful country. Their knowledge of the countries history is astounding.
On our next visit we are planning to do a 2 week private circuit, where we will have the opportunity to visit main attractions from Porto to the Algarve.
Would highly recommend Van Go Tourism, you won’t go wrong.
Outstanding!
The visit organized by Van Go Tourism, and our guide Susana, were above our expectations. Everything was professionally planned: sightseeing, visits to monuments, beaches and towns, and an excellent choice of restaurant for lunch with very good fish and a beautiful sea view.
Portugal un país para visitar con Van Go Tourism
Desde mi primer contacto con Margarida todo fué expectacular. Nosotros no hicimos solo una excursión sino que planeamos toda nuestra estadía en Portugal que fue de unos 11 días con ellas. Esta agencia se ajusta a las necesidades de cada grupo. Mi grupo tenía desde Adultos mayores hasta una niña de 12 años y todos sin excepción sentimos que los tours que hicimos fueron excepcionales.
Nuestra guía Susana hizo lo imposible para que todos estuviéramos siempre agradados. Sus conocimientos sobre Portugal son excelentes!
Realmente recomiendo esta agencia a cualquiera que visite Portugal Porque son profesionales excelentes que disfrutan de su trabajo y logran que uno se sienta muy cómodo y agradado rápidamente.
Saludos desde Panamá para ambas!
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.

Best experience ever!!!
Fantastic tour.
It was a great idea to contact Van Go Tourism as they where very helpful planning our holidays in Portugal.It was suggested that we visit Sintra, a fairytale village with very interesting monuments that are classified by UNESCO as protected cultural landscape, where we had the privilege of having a private guided tour of the following monuments: Regaleira Estate and Pena Palace.
Cabo da Roca was a pleasant surprise as it is the most western point of the European continent with breathtaking views and luscious scenery.
Cascais is a luxury city situated near Lisbon that is located by the coast and where many expats live because of the quality of lifestyle. There are gorgeous restaurants, cafes and cosy beaches.
Van Go Tourism was a fantastic choice because they are very helpful in organising our stay in Portugal and the staff is very nice and speak fantastic English, always aware of our needs and also suggesting other points of interest and restaurants that we can visit during our stay in this beautiful country. Their knowledge of the countries history is astounding.
On our next visit we are planning to do a 2 week private circuit, where we will have the opportunity to visit main attractions from Porto to the Algarve.
Would highly recommend Van Go Tourism, you won’t go wrong.
Outstanding!
The visit organized by Van Go Tourism, and our guide Susana, were above our expectations. Everything was professionally planned: sightseeing, visits to monuments, beaches and towns, and an excellent choice of restaurant for lunch with very good fish and a beautiful sea view.
Portugal un país para visitar con Van Go Tourism
Desde mi primer contacto con Margarida todo fué expectacular. Nosotros no hicimos solo una excursión sino que planeamos toda nuestra estadía en Portugal que fue de unos 11 días con ellas. Esta agencia se ajusta a las necesidades de cada grupo. Mi grupo tenía desde Adultos mayores hasta una niña de 12 años y todos sin excepción sentimos que los tours que hicimos fueron excepcionales.
Nuestra guía Susana hizo lo imposible para que todos estuviéramos siempre agradados. Sus conocimientos sobre Portugal son excelentes!
Realmente recomiendo esta agencia a cualquiera que visite Portugal Porque son profesionales excelentes que disfrutan de su trabajo y logran que uno se sienta muy cómodo y agradado rápidamente.
Saludos desde Panamá para ambas!
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.
