Serra da Estrela - cheese and snow. Don't miss it!! - The production of Serra da Estrela cheese is unmissable and delicious. Knowing how it is produced is very interesting, as is the tasting. The tour through Serra da Estrela is also worth it. Beautiful landscapes. And always with all the explanations from the guide Carlos. Whenever I go to Portugal, I use Endless tour services

Beautiful tour and guide out of 10! - The driver guide/Carlos is undoubtedly one of those service providers that we don't encounter every day. About Serra da Estrela: it’s a fantastic trip! However, I must talk about Carlos again: he is polite, patient, kind and always attentive to the needs of the group. My brother was going to propose to his girlfriend during our trip, and Carlos bought some sparkling wine on his own and presented it to the couple for a celebratory toast. Anyway, it was a 10-rated tour. Thank you, Carlos.

Looking for a Solid Driver?? - We cannot say enough about Endless Weekend Tours! Carlos our driver was truly the best. Never rushed, extreme knowledge of the areas and history of Portugal. His recommendations were always on point to meet our needs and those of our family. He kept in mind our children ages 7 and 11. Brand new Mercedes van with all the amenities for your comfort. Sit back and enjoy your time! Thank you Carlos!!!

Serra da Estrela in March! - The path to the top is very beautiful. At the top there was enough snow to ski. Good trip to experience snow in Portugal and or skiing. The cheese making process and tasting is also interesting. The guide was attentive, careful in driving and knows the region. We went during the week so it was quiet, no crowds. We didn’t choose to eat at the ‘all inclusive’. Don't expect much from the restaurant's à la carte.
