The perfect one day tour of Lisbon - This comprehensive tour of Lisbon shows you all the city's main highlights. My driver-guide, Jorge, was highly welcoming and demonstrated his extensive historical and cultural knowledge with a lightness of touch. The pace of the tour was perfect, combining walking and free time so that I could explore places I wanted to visit in more detail. The tour's highlight was spending time with Jorge exploring the Jeronimos Monastery and adjacent Santa Maria Church. I would have missed so much in both places if I had gone alone. This is the perfect one day tour of Lisbon.

A day full of sites and learning the culture. - Amazing day spent with our guide, Sandra. In a day we visited all the sites we had planned and Sandra was a wealth of information about those sites and Lisbon in general. A very proud Portuguese citizen. Highly recommend this company for tours you may be planning.

Two glorious day tours with Premiere - I just wanted to say that we had two wonderful, insightful and educational tours with Premiere. We had a tour in Porto and the guide was very educated, spoke wonderful English and took us to everything we needed to see in Porto. It was superb. Our second tour was in Lisbon with Jorge. He was very educated on everything about Portugal. No stone was left unturned. He was answered all of our questions and brought us to all of the important places. He was amazing and made our day in Lisbon one not to soon forget. I can't say enough wonderful things about Premiere and I would highly recommend them and use them again when I return to Portgual.

Day trip in Lisbon, Portugal - Premiere Tours provided for car and driver-guide for the day tour in the city. What else can you ask for on a premium private tour? They delivered everything we expected and much more. I recommend this agency if you are visiting the capital of Portugal. Han

Full day Lisbon tour - Paulo picked us up from our ship in a comfortable 8 seater Mercedes van (4 of us) and drove us all around Lisbon. He know his way around and the history and we were grateful to not be walking the hills. He showed us the new part of the city and then the old section, the Christ statue across the river and later the Belem Tower/Monastery area with the amazing statue of the explorers. He found a lovely park bistro for us to have lunch in. He catered to our every need, his English is excellent, and he is very kind. He went out of his way to find additional information as to the identity of the various explorers on the incredible monument. When it came time to drop us at the apartment we had rented, he waited until the lady met us there and we checked it out. Very patient and accommodating. Lovely day.

Worst tour ever - This tour was far from being Premiere!! Showed up in a 1990s Mercedes and the aircon was barely working when we got going. As the day heated up, the aircon stopped all together. Had to drive around with the windows down. Too hot for that. Asked the driver to abandon the tour after four hours of stinking heat. Rang the office and the only solution offered was to get another car and start again. Way too hot for that now. Management flipped the blame to the customer. That I should have rung him and reported it. Thought that was the drivers job as the coolant light came on in the first hour. And he did report it. Ruined one of our last days in Lisbon! Do not book with these guys. All about keeping the cash!!
