We enjoyed almost a week in Portugal touring Lisbon and the surrounding areas. Our guide was extremely personable and knowledgeable about the area, history, and culture. We highly recommend hi and Destination Services Portugal - they both exceeded our expectations and made our time in Lisbon memorable.
I traveled alone and was assigned 2 different roommates as it was different tours. The program was packed and sometimes was tiring but I would not ask for less. The itinerary was well thought off and planned so would not change anything except to spend more time in Andoora as I felt that was a bit rushed and there was still so much more I wished to see.
Eskapas was an excellent trip! They took care of all the tedious parts of traveling, including booking all accommodation and transportation, leaving me with lots of free time to organize all the exciting activities I wanted to do in each place. The tour guide was excellent in pointing out to us the best places in the area and responding to all of our inquiries.
This was an absolutely amazing trip! Every day was full of really interesting experiences. Spain might be the most enchanting country that we have ever visited. We didn't want the trip to end. I highly recommend this Expat adventure!
The tour included a variety of experiences. It was a busy schedule designed to see much of Portugal which I wanted.
the tour director was excellent. She was professional yet able to relate to others on a personal level.
was an excellent trouble ******* when presented by unexpected challenges.
manouvered the bus expertly. He was efficient loading the cases. He was also polite and helpful getting off the bus.
Recommend this tour. Mini van with a driver and tour guide. The guide was so informative, a really lovely lady. Driver was on the ball - it was a couple of days into the trip he revealed he could understand english.
