“Ho regalato questa esperienza ai miei genitori e mi hanno confermato di essere stati molto bene e sarà sicuramente la giornata che si ricorderanno di più del loro viaggio a Lisbona. Emerson oltre a parlare perfettamente l'italiano, è stato disponibile quando l'ho dovuto contattare direttamente al cellulare. In sintesi, vale la pena vedere tutti e tre i posti, ma Cabo da Roca è stato il luogo che mi hanno detto averli davvero emozionati”

“We got to see a number of beautiful areas. Unfortunately we waited to the last minute to get tickets to Pena Palace and Regaleira, which meant we had to go in the afternoon when they were quite crowded. Regaleira was great. Pena Palace was worth seeing from the outside, but wasn’t worth the inside tour money IMO. Our driver Rui was very good and knew the area very well.”
