The Best Way to See Lisbon - What an amazing experience! We spent one day touring Sintra and a second day touring Evora. Our guide for both days was Jose. He came highly recommended from friends who previously toured with him. What an exceptional person he is! Not only is Jose extremely knowledgeable and well-read on all topics of conversation (including history), but he is a wonderful person. He’s friendly, engaging, caring, and is 100% focused on you throughout the experience. Going on personalized tours with Jose feels as though you’ve come to town to visit friends or family, and they’re taking you out for the day to show you around. If you’re considering Lisbon on Wheels, book with Jose. You will not be disappointed!

Make time for it - well worth it - We did a full day Sintra tour with our wonderful guide Jose, visiting four monuments (Peña Palace, Moorish Castle, Sintra National Palace, and Regaleira). The tour was completely private (just the two of us) with Jose who double dutied as our guide and driver. Jose was knowledgeable and friendly, and he is well experienced to know the ins and outs of the places we visited as well as good recommendations for food and drinks in the area. I would not hesitate to recommend this tour, and Jose!

Stellar and exquisite private tour with José - I cannot say enough good things about this experience we actually did a private tour and our graces host. José set us up at for a real treat. His sense of humor and knowledge were intoxicating. Whatever you do, make sure you get Jose, if working with Lisbon on wheels. It may cost a little bit more money, but I recommend customizing the tour.

Great personalized tour - Jose not only knows his history he also knows off the beaten path spots to get away from the crowds after the tour. He adjusts the tour to your needs so be prepared to explain how much time you want to spend and what you want to cover. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour.
