Our guides and drivers were delightful, professional and very well spoken. Their knowledge of the areas we visited was impeccable. Each day was filled with breathtaking experiences.”

“When my wide and I decided to go to Portugal, we had one week to put together a trip that would allow us to see as much as possible. That’s where Fatima of Genuine Portugal Tours helped us immensely. We provided a list of priority items and she put together the package for us. We started off in Lisbon, working our way north to Porto, stopping to see sights such as Belem, Sintra and Fatima. We stopped one for a delicious seafood lunch in Cascais on the Portuguese Riviera. In Porto, we saw key landmarks and then visited Guimares and Braga. Portuguese is a country steeped in a rich history, as reflected by the pride of the several tour guides who escorted us. My wife and I have figured out that private tours are the way to go. You save massive amounts of times in getting to and from key sites. Your time is limited, so you have to make the most of it. You cannot see everything, but if you like to see religious sites, Portugal has some of the most magnificent venues. The Sanctuary of the Bomme Jesus in Braga is one the most inspirational architectural structures I have ever seen.”

“Our time in Portugal was amazing! Fatima planned such unique experiences for us and there was such attention to detail in every aspect — the places we visited, the knowledgeable guides and driver, the delicious food and wine selections at fabulous restaurants, the excellent choice of accommodations — it was all top notch and well planned. We have traveled throughout the world, and I truly believe that Fatima and her team at Genuine Portugal Tours is the best of the best.”

“On a whim, I decided to go on a vacation to Portugal. Fatima put together a two-week itinerary in a week! It was the perfect balance between the beach and the city. She arranges everything, from hotels to several great tours and experiences. Fatima was in touch with me throughout the two weeks. She is an excellent agent and host, and because of her planning, I was able to maximize my time and have a wonderful vacation in Portugal”

“We had a wonderful holiday in Portugal which will remain long in the memory. Portugal is a breathtakingly beautiful country full of splendid landscapes, delicious food and friendly welcoming people. The program was so well planned, with amazing family-owned vineyards and charming hotels, excellent restaurants and brilliant guides who made us feel like friends. We visit Porto & Douro Valley and we love the contrast between the trendy city of Porto and the rural experiences in Douro Valley.”
Stéphane Peruch & Amelie, Paris, France
“Genuine Portugal Tours organized a visit to the Alentejo region. They put together an itinerary that suited us. We wanted to be more off the beaten track but still comfortable and we wanted to discover the charm of this amazing region. The experiences, like olive tasting, jeep tours through the region, visiting wine producers, and delicious wine tasting, was very welcome and memorable. We were able to get to know the Alentejo region and its people in a more intimate way. And the program had a mixture of incredible experiences with a balance of relaxation that suits us”

“I am a Travel Agent and was on Celebrity Edge with a group of 8 clients. Fatima from Genuine Portugal Tours was instrumental in designing an amazing itinerary for us while our ship was docked at Madeira Port. From the pick-up time to the drop-off time, the itinerary you organized was amazing and captured all the major highlights of Madeira. The private car we had was clean. The driver who looked after us throughout the day was amazing and very accommodating. I would certainly recommend Fatima and her team to any of my clients who will be touring Portugal. Thank you, Fatima, for an amazing itinerary and the attention to detail that you so meticulously took care of. You were great in your responses and follow-up throughout the time. You were thorough in your itinerary. My group and I would like to thank you and your team for the excellent service you provided. Please give our best to the driver. Thank you for the beautiful Wine Gift you sent – I saved it all the way and brought it with me back to Canada to enjoy with my family. Thanks – Look out for my emails for future tours that I will do with you for my clients. Cheers”
