A very nice trip. The two tour guides organised everything very nicely, introduced us to portuguese history and traditions. The wine was very tasty and the blankets during the windy times came right in time. All in one a recommendable experience with Miguel and Federico.

Red Line is well worth the cost. Blue line was not worth the time and expense. Good narration & sound. Clean bus.

Great time, we loved it! The boat captains were also wonderful. Would highly recommend! -John
