Our 7 day Lisbon and Porto tour was outstanding in all categories; Being met by a driver at airport and train station with a smile. Excellent vehicles. Our accommodation staying at Turin hotels were superb. Our tour guides were very punctual and very friendly. The places we visited were exceptional. Our anniversary was even more special when Nuno met us with roses and chocolates. The tour we had with him in the Duoro was amazing, fun and informative. Thank you for a memorable time, we highly recommend this tour. Sam and Dianne from Australia

The only problem was starting us with a car that was way too small. Would have appreciated a little more information about the places to see, and other possible options if we so wished. Otherwise a great trip
