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.
The blend of guided tours and personal time was perfect. I particularly loved the day in Seville; the city's vibrancy was contagious! The hotels were mostly great, with Porto being my favorite stop. I appreciated the professionalism of the staff and how smoothly everything ran. A must-do for anyone interested in the Iberian Peninsula.

Your staff drivers and guides is brilliant They are planned, super sweet and helpful I liked that the tour gave us enough time to spend on our own and also let us see major highlights of a city.
Too much too fast We needed more time in several spots, less in others. TA did not advice about the hectic pace. Madrud and Barcelona were extremely confusing with the changes in buses, groups, guides, etc.
Javier and Maria were great guides, both were very professional, knowledgeable and caring. They are very good representatives for your tour company. They made the demanding tour schedule very pleasant and really enjoyable.
