Great tour, excellent and professional customer service - An excellent day out with Portugal Magik touring the areas around Lisbon. Great car, knowledgeable and friendly driver who made it very easy for us to enjoy ourselves without needing to think about anything, which is exactly what I want on vacation. Even more, the company gave me absolutely zero hassles to redeem a credit from over two years prior (another family member who'd booked a tour was unable to use it at due to an injury just a few days prior to her scheduled trip). That shows a lot of integrity to me. The communication from start to finish, from booking to reminders to meeting the driver to finishing up the trip, was top notch. I'll contact them again for sure.

A excellent tour company - We want to have a tour through Lisbon, and knowing that the city is the seven hills city, we decided to book with Portugal Magik Private tours. We were the two of us and our guide, Andy, picked us up at our hotel. He brought us first to Belem and made us visit the tower and the monument for the sailors. We got a nice course of Portuguese history. Then we went to Pasteis de Belem, the custard shop, were we tasted the pasteis and had coffee. From then on we went to the historical centre of Lisbon. We got to see the highlights such a the San Justa elevator, the cathedral, the birthplace of San Antonio, magnificent viewpoints. We had lunch in the Time Out market. The tour had a duration of eight hours, but it was really worth it. Excellent company, excellent communication and of course a more than excellent tour guide.

Book it now!! - We booked this 3 day tour of the Lisbon area and were beyond thrilled with it!! Our guide, Joao, was so attentive to our preferences, personalizing our tour. Joaa's knowledge of Portugal's history was fantastic. We packed so much into our 3 days, but we never felt rushed. One the highlights of tour was the FOOD! I am not a fan of seafood, which is definitely a Portuguese specialty. Joao selected restaurants that had a wide selection for this picky eater. Our vacation continued up to the Porto area, but Lisbon was the star of the trip!! I would give this tour a 10/10, I would give Joao a 20/10!!

Andre was the best! - On our first day, we had Andre take us on a full-day private guided tour of Lisbon, which hit all the highlights. Andre was incredibly knowledgeable about the history (and which pastry shop is the best) and passionate about sharing his enthusiasm with us. He was flexible about how much time we spent where and easy-going. On Day 2, he took us to Sintra, Cabo da Roca (the westernmost place in continental Europe), and his hometown of Cascais, a lovely beach town. The communication was excellent throughout - from when we made inquiries to when he picked us up at our hotel. They made very helpful suggestions, such as booking the first time slot to visit Sintra to avoid the long lines. Andre knew the traffic patterns well, so we also took the backroads to visit the cute Village of Sintra without getting caught in what seemed to be a mile-long line of cars. We would highly recommend Andre as your guide and Portugal Magik as your tour organizer.

Short Visit / Long on Sights and Memories - This was actually 2 tours but the system wouldn't let me pick 2. Having less than 2 days in Lisbon I decided to book a private tour. 1) Airport pick-up with an introductory driving / walking tour of Lisbon and 2) a full day tour of Obidos. I could have done more but I was very tired from international flight. As a private tour I had total flexibility both days. The driver Andre was great and pretty much did as I asked. He helped with luggage, we had a light meal, we saw more sights than I thought I could fit into 1.5 days. I even asked him to walk the top of the walls with me at Obidos and he gladly did. His knowledge of Portugese history was excellent. He also seems to be a student of world affairs so we had lots to talk about. Booking these tours was very easy. All of the folks I interacted with via email were professional and courteous and prompt! I can't say enough good things about this company and driver / guide Andre.

Portugal Magik is truly Magical!! - We took an 8 day private tour with Portugal Magik with another couple - so 4 of us. Portugal Magik is truly magical. Gonzalo is the owner - he answers usually within 24 hours any questions. Diogo was our driver and guide the entire time. On a scale of 1 to 10 I wish I could give him 100!!! Seriously he was a very careful driver especially since we had unusually heavy rains. He was incredibly knowledgeable of all the history and facts of Portugal. In addition Diogo added some special extra stops for us - including a sardine factory among others. He arranged daily lunches at special restaurants and helped order our food so we experienced Portugal cuisine. Diogo was always early on our daily pickups so no worries. We had made dinner reservations in advance so he confirmed the restaurants and what we could order. He cleaned the Mercedes van every night and had umbrellas and water for us. We could not have seen 1/2 of what we saw on our own. We saw Lisbon and did day trips to Sintra and other cities, then Coinbra and on to Porto.Diogo met us at the airport and deposited us there for our way home. Portugal Magik is worth its weight in gold!!!!

Excellent tours of Lisbon and Sintra - My husband and I had 2 great private tours with Andre. We toured Lisbon on day 1. Andre made sure we saw all the important sights in Lisbon and took us to a wonderful, non touristic restaurant for lunch. He explained the history of Portugal which really made all the sights more meaningful. On our 2nd day we toured the Pena Palace and Sintra. Andre was very timely and was a pleasure to spend time with. The company was easy to work with and had great communication prior to our tours. We highly recommend using them for touring in Lisbon and Sintra.

The Best of the Best! - WOW! Miguel was our fabulous tour/guide. Full day private tour was over the top and worth every penny. Miguel shared history and stories that went far beyond my initial research. Miguel made the difference and got us in and out of crowded places with ease. We got a true taste of Lisbon; the highs, the lows and everything in between.

Phenomenal Lisbon private tour - This was one of the best tours I have ever gone on. John adjusted our day as he learned what I liked and wanted to do. When he learned I really enjoyed finding restaurants for locals by locals, he suggested a lunch stop at one where I was literally the only tourist and the food was phenomenal. He was friendly and conversant. I will definitely book him again when I am next in the area!

Best of Lisbon Private Tour - Excellent Day! - Thank you Portugal Magik and Miguel for a wonderful, custom tour of Lisbon. The itinerary prepared for us was perfect and more than exceeded our expectations. Our tour guide, Miguel, was outstanding. He did a great job communicating with us before we arrived in Lisbon so we knew exactly when to expect him at our hotel and what we could expect for our day of touring. If you want a local guide that really knows his way around the city, Miguel is who you want to hire. Miguel's job was especially challenging because the Pope was in Lisbon the same time we were here. Miguel masterfully navigated around the street closures, traffic jams and crowds of of people to get is to the parts of Lisbon we wanted to see. The vehicle for our tour was immaculate and very comfortable. And there was plenty of water for us to drink along the way. I highly recommend this tour group and especially recommend Miguel as your guide. He does not disappoint.
