Contacting me proactively gave me confidence in their service. I appreciated that they were available and answered my question (were very few, but still).

The entire excursion was amazing. The palaces are beautiful, and I fulfilled my dream of visiting Regaleira, which fully met my expectations. We ended the day with Boca do Inferno at sunset, an incredible place! Cascais and its beautiful beach. The guides, Miguel and Derian, were excellent. All the information was very interesting, but most notable was their kindness and warmth. They made this experience unforgettable. The driver, Paulo, was highly skilled at navigating those narrow roads with expertise.

Everything was very efficient, both the Lisboa Card and the tickets purchased for the Pena Palace. We had to wait in lines, but they moved quite quickly anyway.

It was easy to get the physical card. Unfortunately we could not book Belem tower with our card. There were no Lisboa card tickets available for 72 hours and we had 48 hour pass. We bought directly from them since it was a must see for us. The metro was very easy to use with the card. Because we had the card, we saw places we would not have necessarily paid to see but when it's free... Lisbon cathedral was two euros discounted because of the card which was unexpected and nice. Sao Jorge we were able to skip a huge line because of the card.

The card is easy to collect, but it's a shame that you can't print the vouchers. It would avoid stress when you don't have a signal.
