We used Paolo 3 yrs ago. He picked us up at airport, took us to Pousadas remotely located and did tours around Portugal. Car is spacious, clean and had wi-fi. Very knowledgable about all sights- we went to Sintra, Evora and few remote places. This was a few years ago, but we owe a review because Paolo had the best pricing, prompt replies to emails, always on time and flexible. He is a certified tourist guide too.

Description
Departing from Lisbon, we’ll drive to Évora along the scenic countryside roads of Alentejo.
In Évora, we’ll have plenty of time to explore the historical centre and soak up its enchanting atmosphere. We’ll visit the mysterious Church of St. Francis and its Chapel of Bones before continuing up the narrow streets of the old town to Giraldo Square, where the Spanish Inquisition once had its headquarters. You’ll also have time to explore the 1000-year-old Roman Temple and the 12th-century Cathedral.
After such an intensive morning, it will be time to enjoy the pleasures of Portuguese cuisine at a local "alentejano" restaurant, which I’ll help you choose.
We’ll then drive to Estremoz, where you’ll see a marble quarry and learn how the stone is extracted from the earth. Following a small break in the town, we’ll make our way back to Lisbon.
