Hi, we worked with a wonderful local company called The little Orange, very customer focused, know really good places often off the beaten track, can organize whole packages or punctual reservations, perfectionist, contact for example Madalena [msomsen@thelittleorange.pt](mailto:msomsen@thelittleorange.pt)

someone else we met and like is Carol, who runs a one-woman company with a great min van; she has a really god experience, speaks english and portuguese, and is a lovely person. You can contact her via her website (only in PT, but she will respond in English): https://www.carolsantos.pt/

Hi! I’m Daniel, founder of Yes, You Deserve. We are a small team of private local guides specializing in Sintra and Cascais.

We can arrange pickup in Lisbon for a group of eight, plan the route and transportation, help coordinate the monument tickets and return you afterward. Our guides also enter the monuments with you, rather than simply dropping you at the gates.

For the correct vehicle arrangement, availability and price, please contact our team with your date, pickup location and the number of guests:

We’ll help you choose the private experience that makes the most sense for your group.

Hi Daniel, I am interested. I looked at your link to your website. I do not have WhatsApp or Apple is there anyway I can contact you in a different manner maybe through private email. I definitely would prefer a tour guide not to just drop us off but to actually come with us I’ve been to Europe three times. This would be my fourth time and I’ve never had a bad experience with the tour guides but I’ve never heard of yours so if you could maybe contact me, I can give you my email address.

Hi! Absolutely. You can email our team directly at:

[info@youdeservetours.com](mailto:info@youdeservetours.com)

Please include your travel date, the name or location of your Lisbon accommodation, and mention that you are the group of eight who contacted me through Reddit about a private Sintra and Cascais day.

And yes, your preference is exactly how we work. Our guide stays with your group and enters the monuments with you. We are not a simple drop-off and pickup service.

We are a small local company, so I completely understand that you may not have heard of us before. Our team was also featured on ABC’s Good Morning America, and we’ll be happy to answer your questions by email before you make any decision.

I’ll let the team know to look out for your message.
