Private 8-hour day trip from Lisbon to Queluz Palace, Mafra, Ericeira, and more, with pickup, English guiding, and tickets included.

“Eduard fue un excelente guía. Hice un tour privado y me explicó un montón de cosas relacionadas a lo que íbamos a ver, pero también hablamos de Portugal en general, lo que me permitió poner los hechos pasados y presentes en contexto. Se preocupó en todo momento por saber si tenía dudas o preguntas. Lo mejor del día fue el Palacio de Mafra. La jornada era muy ventosa y no se podía caminar mucho por Ericeira y, mucho menos, apreciar bien el Cabo de roca. Sin embargo , para mí, que tenía especial interés por el Palacio, el día fue muy productivo. Recomiendo a Eduard y la realización.”
