Every detail of our trip ran like clockwork, from getting picked up from the airport to the hotel accommodations and tours. Tiago was incredibly responsive (even with daily questions we asked him over whatsapp during our vacation), listened to exactly what we wanted, and delivered a perfect vacation.

The boat ride up the river was a nice break from driving and the operator was a hoot! One place we stopped at the young lady touring us had just bottled her own wine. While we did not get to taste it, it was fun to see her excitement.

Rooftop pool and family pool were great. Workout room and spa were also amazing. Food was great. Included breakfast might be the best "free" breakfast we've had. Outside the included breakfast, the restaurant menus were on the pricey side but that's expected from restaurants on the premise. We ate outside the hotel for the other meals and explored the local restaurants and had some of our best meals ever. We loved Madeira and will definitely be returning.

It is what it is supposed to be - an airport hotel...somewhere to stay before a flight, not a destination.

Lisbon's Historic Odyssey on a Private Walking Tour
Lisbon

Ricardo was AMAZING. So knowledgeable and we loved our tour. We have three teenagers who can be hard to keep entertained during tours and Ricardo had them all interested and engaged the entire time. It was hotter than normal in Lisbon and Ricardo found the shade, took breaks and gave us time to buy waters/snacks. He was great.

Ah, Pena Palace. Loved it. We had an amazing driver, Eduardo, who gave us a ton of history on the way there and back. He was easily the best driver we've ever had on these trips (and we've done quite a few). Pena Palace skip the line was perfect because the line was quite long and we got to skip it so it saved us time. I loved seeing this beautiful palace. Definitely recommend. Eduardo took us to this wonderful restaurant too and it was such a good meal. He added on some other stops so we could see more of the coastline. It was a great day.

Eduardo was GREAT! My kids actually said they missed Eduardo the next day. We spent two days with him and they really enjoyed his company and knowledge.

Sarah was great! Informative and knowledgeable. She is passionate about Porto and it shows. Rainy and cold for the tour so not the best conditions but Sarah made it fun!

It was fun, glad we did it. Shorter than we thought - you literally just climb up for 10 minutes, take some photos and climb back down. But, I am glad we did it. Just a little underwhelmed on the length of time. We had budgeted 4 hours with our driver and really only needed an hour. We had just done a walking tour in the morning so we didn't need the driver to also give us a tour as well.

Ricardo was great.

We didn't need 4 hours of time allotted for this activity. We had already done a walking tour so just transport to and from this activity would have been better. We drove around in circles for an hour before it because we were going to be early. Ricardo (driver) was great - not his fault - he didn't realize we had done a walking tour. We would have rather had extra time to ourselves in the hotel/exploring on our own instead of driving around city blocks we already saw.
