10 stars all the way!
We booked this tour last minute and it was the best decision! Much better than expected. Our guide Nídia was just wonderful. She was so easy going and friendly that we felt like family. The tour itself was perfect in every way . So much to see and do. Portuguese wine and food is just out of this world! Have no words. Best tour ever! 10 stars!

Disgusted by unprofessional Tour Operator. Stay away!
Nightmare! STAY AWAY from this operator ‘Yes Experiences Portugal’ and unprofessional tour guide Nidia. If I could leave 0 stars I would! This operator cancelled two back to back tours we had scheduled two days in a row, just a few hours before the actual tours. This Sintra & Cascais tour and a Private Troia & Comporta tour were both cancelled. This operator ruined our entire Portugal experience. They cancelled just a few hours before our tours, leaving no opportunity to schedule any other bookings these two days. We tried to schedule other tours, but they were too last minute and nothing was available. They wasted two+ full days of our already very short trip to Portugal. There were 7 of us flying in from different US states just to participate in these tours. The operator acted unprofessionally, cancelled and wasted our time and money flying to Portugal for nothing. We will not be returning to Portugal and we hope other visitors stay away from this operator. Worst experience ever. Disgusting treatment of our group. Stay away. They don’t deserve your money or time!

I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused. Our account was hacked, and for several months we were not the ones properly accessing or managing it. After changing the credentials for security reasons, we also lost partial access to account notifications, which meant that some reservations and messages were not visible to us in time. This was not intentional and does not reflect our normal standard of service. The issue has now been corrected, the account has been secured, and we have taken steps to prevent this from happening again. We have also asked the platform to review these comments, as they relate to a security and technical issue outside of our control. Again, I am truly sorry for the inconvenience caused. Kind regards,
This tour was absolutely fantastic! The views were breathtaking, and our guide was brilliant—very knowledgeable and kept us laughing the entire time. I highly recommend it. You definitely won't regret it!

Love Sesimbra!
Sesimbra is now one of my favorite places in the world! It's so beautiful! Our guide Tiago made our trip so enjoyable. We visited the beaches and had a beautiful oceanside lunch. Tiago joined us, made great food recommendations and even taught my adult son to clean the sardines he ordered! I highly recommend!

Une panne mécanique a forcé l'annulation.
L'opérateur de la visite a annulé la visite ce matin-là car le guide a signalé une défaillance mécanique du véhicule en route vers notre point de prise en charge, nécessitant un service de remorquage. Ils conseillent que les tentatives de remplacer le véhicule ont échoué car tous les autres guides et véhicules étaient déjà assignés. Évidemment, il est impossible d'évaluer le prestataire, mais vous devez choisir une étoile ou plus.

We take genuine customer feedback very seriously. However, after carefully reviewing our booking records, payment communications, guide schedules and tour operations, we have been unable to identify this reviewer or match these comments to any experience provided by YES Experiences Portugal. We have no record of a customer reporting the billing issues described, nor can we identify any booking involving the circumstances mentioned in this review. No booking date, guide, winery, restaurant or reservation reference has been provided, making it impossible for us to investigate the claims. If this review relates to a genuine booking with our company, we kindly ask the reviewer to contact us directly at info@yesexperiencesportugal.com and provide the Viator or Tripadvisor booking reference, tour date and lead traveler name. We will investigate immediately. Until such information is provided, we cannot confirm that this person traveled with our company or that the experience described was operated by us. We have therefore requested that Tripadvisor verify the authenticity and booking connection of this review.

Disappointed!
I was really looking forward to this wine tour because it seemed just like what we needed. But it wasn't all it was cracked up to be. From the beginning we were having problems with the billing and couldn't get a straight answer for it. Then when the tour started, it was all sorts of wrong. The guide was inexplicably in a hurry and did not take into account our desire to take pictures or longer. The food was atrocious as if they went for the worst possible options. I will never go with this company again.

The day felt like Portugal slowed down
We didn’t really know what to expect from Troia and Comporta, but this tour turned out to be one of the most distinctive days of our trip. What made it special was the feeling of space and calm. After Lisbon, everything suddenly felt wider and quieter: the ferry crossing, the coastline, the pine trees, the rice fields, the small roads and the simple beauty of the area. It didn’t feel polished for tourists, and that was exactly what we loved about it. Nidia guided the day beautifully. She gave us context when it mattered, but she never over-explained or rushed us from place to place. It felt more like being shown an area by someone who understands its rhythm, rather than being taken through a fixed itinerary. The Roman ruins were a really interesting contrast to the relaxed coastal atmosphere, and the Carrasqueira pier was probably the place that stayed with us the most. It is simple, unusual and incredibly atmospheric. Comporta itself has a quiet elegance that is hard to explain until you are there. It makes sense why people come here to disconnect. This tour is not about big monuments or crowded attractions. It is about landscape, history, wine, local life and a slower side of Portugal that most visitors probably miss. A very beautiful and memorable experience.

Do not book with Yes Experiences Portugal- no resolution despite owner involvement
I originally booked this experience through Viator. The tour company later canceled the Viator reservation and contacted me directly, offering a discount if I booked through them instead. After booking directly, I discovered that the charge had been processed as a cash advance rather than a standard purchase. Once I became aware of this, I canceled the booking. Despite the cancellation, I have not yet received a refund. My experience has been very frustrating, particularly due to the lack of resolution regarding the refund. I would strongly encourage anyone considering booking with this company to proceed with caution. I have contacted the owner many times and she continues to say she is resolving and has done nothing. I hope the company addresses this matter promptly and processes the refund that is owed.

wonderful just wonderful...
A hidden gem completely different from Lisbon This tour was one of the most unexpected highlights of our trip. We had seen Lisbon and some of the more popular areas around it, but Troia and Comporta felt like a completely different world. The whole region has this quiet, untouched feeling that is hard to describe. It doesn’t feel touristy at all. There are wide open landscapes, beautiful beaches, small local details, and a calm atmosphere that makes you slow down without even trying. Nidia was a wonderful guide and made the day feel very natural. She knew exactly how to show us the area without making it feel rushed or overly structured. The ferry, the Roman ruins, the wooden pier and the wine tasting all felt connected to the place, not like random stops added to a tour. Comporta was probably the biggest surprise for us. It has this understated, relaxed beauty that feels very different from the usual tourist spots near Lisbon. By the end of the day, we completely understood why so many celebrities and people looking for privacy choose Comporta as a retreat. It feels exclusive, but in a quiet and authentic way. A beautiful, peaceful and very different experience. Highly recommended if you want to discover a side of Portugal that still feels like a real hidden gem.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for joining us on our Tróia & Comporta experience.Reading that this became one of the unexpected highlights of your trip truly means a lot to us. Tróia and Comporta are indeed very different from Lisbon and the more visited destinations, and one of the things we love most is introducing guests to this quieter, more authentic side of Portugal.We’re delighted that you connected with the region’s unique atmosphere, from the ferry crossing and Roman ruins to the traditional wooden pier, local wines, untouched landscapes, and beautiful beaches. These are the elements that make this corner of Portugal feel so special and unlike anywhere else.Thank you also for your kind words about Nídia. Creating experiences that feel natural, personal, and connected to the destination rather than simply moving from stop to stop is at the heart of what we do, so it is incredibly rewarding to know that this came across during your day with us.Comporta has a remarkable way of surprising people. Its understated beauty, authenticity, and sense of privacy are exactly why it has become such a sought-after retreat while still maintaining its local character and charm.Thank you once again for your recommendation. We hope to welcome you back soon to discover even more hidden gems and authentic experiences throughout Portugal.Warm regards,YES experiences PORTUGAL

Great day outside Lisbon with Tiago
We had a really lovely day on this Arrábida wine tour with Tiago. We were looking for a relaxed day outside Lisbon with good wine, nice scenery and local food, and this tour delivered exactly that. Tiago was a great guide: friendly, easy to talk to, and very knowledgeable without making the day feel like a history lecture. He gave us interesting context about the region, the wine, and the places we visited, but everything felt natural and relaxed. Arrábida is beautiful, especially the coastal views and the mix of mountains and sea. The wine tasting was very enjoyable, and lunch was generous and felt local, which we really appreciated. The whole day was well organized, but it still felt personal and flexible. It was a perfect break from Lisbon and a great way to see a different side of Portugal. We would definitely recommend this tour, especially with Tiago as your guide.
