“At the recommendation of a friend, we had TourTailors arrange our whole trip to Lisbon and Portugal. With the help of Chiara, everything was planned to the last detail. To be honest, we did not have to do anything but show up. Chiara asked us various questions and planned the whole trip. She booked the walking tours (great guides), day trips, and provided a GPS that had everything pre-inputted for the stops to and from Porto. Hotels were great. The trip could not have been easier or run more smoothly. Would absolutely recommend Chiara and TourTailors to others. All you have to do is show up – they take care of everything.”

“We were very happy with the service in Lisbon, Porto and Coimbra. We were met by very congenial drivers and guides and learned from them many things we had not known before. Walking around each city (when possible) was especially fun and informative and good exercise! The guides were well versed in the history of each place. The hotels were good value. The staff were very personable and helpful, the breakfasts were just what we liked, so no complaints. The two Fado evenings were also memorable (one we organized ourselves in Coimbra).
And when we returned from our six free days in the south, your people met us at the train station and delivered us next morning to the airport. We were booked to take a sunset farewell river tour… however it was so overcast that we decided to cancel it… and you very generously refunded us for that part of our trip. So, all in all, we were very satisfied and would recommend your tours to any friends who asked for information. Again, thank you for your excellent services.” -

“We can’t say enough about how well planned and executed our trip to Portugal was done. From our pickup at the airport everything went smoothly for the week that we were there. Catarina took our information and planned a wonderful trip for us to see historical sites, eat, learn cultural ways, eat, and learn. She also provided recommendations for other things to do on our ‘off’ days. The vendors that TourTailors select such as the driver services are top notch. The drivers are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The hotels were top notch and in great locations at each stop. We stayed in Lisbon (Tuk Tuk tour, dinner with Fado, river cruise) and Évora (walking tour, winery tour with a Michelin star restaurant meal) and visited Sintra (historic castles and awesome bakery) and the coast (for another awesome meal with a view). We had never worked with a travel company to plan a self-guided tour like this, and we had some concerns. However, this was worth every penny and more. We didn’t have to worry about anything – just enjoy the sites, sounds and tastes of southern Portugal. I think Spain may be next!“

“My husband and I recently booked a 2-week trip to Italy using TourTailors. We had the most AMAZING time! TourTailors really thought of everything. Every detail was taken into consideration such as transfers, tickets, hotels, and restaurants. The tours that they booked us were always incredible. The hotels were always clean, in great locations, and very nice. Every transfer from one location to the next was always taken care of, such as train tickets, chauffeurs, and precise instructions on where to go. Anytime we had questions before and during the trip, they were always quick to respond. They helped make our travels stress-free and unforgettable. I 100% recommend TourTailors and will be booking with them again.“

“We just returned from my bucket list 14-day trip to Portugal. My family was from Portugal and it only took me 66 years to finally get there! Wish I had gone sooner… What a beautiful country. Driving around Portugal was spectacular and really gave us the opportunity to see all of its natural beauty. Medieval cities, fortresses, beaches, wine country… so much history, delicious food and wine… Our agent Filipa Martins did an excellent job putting our trip together. Filipa was very helpful in the planning stages making recommendations and answering our many questions. She provided us with numerous proposals while planning. She even worked in the drive to my Grandfathers village in the northern mountains near Spain to visit his final resting place. Everything from the airport transfers to the hotels and car rental went off with precision. The accommodations and service at the hotels were unbelievable. Our tour guides were so friendly and knowledgeable. By the end of the tours it felt like we were leaving family behind. We had the opportunity to use the new TourTailors APP on our IPhones. It worked great. We used it for navigation and it allowed us to have the entire trip in our pocket at all times. We could instantly look up all the daily activities, points of interest and restaurant recommendations! Thank you Filipa and TourTailors for the trip of a life time! I would highly recommend them to my family and friends…“

“We asked TourTailors to organize a 21 day experience in Portugal. We gave them a broad outline of what we would like to do and see. Our travel consultant, Gonçalo Oliveira, sent us a proposed itinerary, which we massaged a couple of times. The trip turned out to be wonderful. Our trip included renting a car for 14 days, with a GPS that plotted out our entire trip. It made it easy to get from place to place. All of the hotels were excellent. All of the guided tours that we took were very informative and fun. If we had any issues we were able to contact TourTailors and talk to a real person, who helped us resolve any of our issues.“
