- N426GFrosep0 contributionsFull Day of Adventure - Batalha, Nazare and ObidosExcellent day spent with Olive Premium Tours. This was my last day in Portugal and decided to fill the day with this excursion, specifically to see Batalha. I am a solo traveler and this was a fantastic opportunity. Mr. Oliver was professional, courteous, easy to communicate with in English and knowledgeable about site history. Professional - Sent me a reminder text the day before the tour. Explained the itinerary for the day. He purchased all entrance tickets (I didn't have to wait in line). Driving - Very relaxing, with no worries. Communication - I stated the order of my priorities- Batalha, Nazare, Obidos and this was well received. I felt and experienced, his intention in giving me the tour, I wanted. He shared historical information about the sites visited, enhancing the day. Patient - With my exploration of the historical sites (I have to read, what things are about and take pictures). I also had to pick up some souvenirs, so shopping. Encouraging - showing me special viewing vistas and encouraging of photographic pictures. Tour day - Experienced all sites, listed in this order Batalha, Nazare, Obidos. A full day with perfect weather and ease of seeing the beautiful sites! Traveling the day with Mr. Oliver was a beautiful way to end my vacation (14 days) in Portugal. This side trip met all my objectives and exceeded my expectations. I would definitely recommend and consider obtaining his services for a custom trip, hopefully I will make it back to Portugal in the future. Obrigado, Sr. Oliveira, sinceramente Rose.Written 7 January 2025

- lokistweet0 contributionsFatima tourIt was well arranged tour. Rui was very helpful and showed us around the Fatima very well. He picked us from the hotel on time and took us to the village first and then to the Fatima. He explained to us about the place and showed us around the village. We really enjoyed the trip and he brought us back and dropped us at a different place at our request. He gave us good recommendations about the restaurants and different places to visit in Lisbon. Highly recommendedWritten 8 December 2024
- Paula B0 contributionsOutstanding Private Tour Experience!We spent two unforgettable days exploring cities while traveling to and from Lisbon and Porto with Olive Premium Tours. Rui's professionalism, knowledge, and friendliness made the tours truly special. Rui arrived on time and pre-tour communication was excellent. His Mercedes van and station wagon are both immaculately maintained, comfortable, and safe. On our way to Porto, we stopped in Obidos and Nazare and learned so much about both cities' rich histories. On the way back to Lisbon a few days later, we stopped in Costa Nova, Aveiro, and Fatima. These were all hidden gems that only a local like Rui could share. We stopped for lunch on both trips and enjoyed getting to know Rui. We can't recommend Rui and Olive Premium Tours enough! If you're looking for an experienced, hospitable, and knowledgeable guide, look no further. We'll definitely book with them again on our next trip!Written 22 November 2024

Oliver planned a well paced tour with a great balance of nature & history. The views were gorgeous - the villages & towns gave us a true understanding of the day to day life. The castles & historical buildings were authentic. See the other side of Lisbon neighborhoods. My grandson & I had a lovely day.

we were recommended by a family member to contact Rui to take our tour to Arrábida and we did not regret it.
Our expectation was high taking into account the information we had.
The landscape is stunning and everything was very well organized.
excellent lunch in Setubal (seafood).
Mr. Rui Olivera was very kind and professional.
Arrabida natural park is a paradise and so close to Lisbon.
Well done.
Will return.
