"We booked with Daytrip for a journey from Porto to Lisbon. This is our first time using Daytrip and we were so impressed with this service, weâve told so many of our friends and would like to share with you here.
Prior to our trip, we scheduled 3 stops: Aveiro, Coimbra and Obidos. The website was very easy to use and offered recommendations for stops along the way and the additional costs. Our driver/guide for the day is Nuno, a Porto native. It was very easy to communicate with him on WhatsApp.
We were promptly picked up from our hotel at the scheduled time in a Mercedes wagon. Though it was just the 2 of us, the vehicle wouldâve comfortably fit 4.
There was WiFi, water and umbrellas in the car. The car was impeccably clean.
Nuno was fantastic! He gave us tips along the way. He let us sleep and as when we ere awake, answered any questions we had.
At each stop, we had the peace of mind knowing our belongings were safe as Nuno was close to the car at all times while we went out to venture.
I highly recommend this option to travel between 2 cities with your own curated stops along the way!"

We had wonderful conversation during our almost 12 hours together. He very kind and helpful. The car was very comfortable for a family of 3. We highly recommend him to any one for their travel needs."
"Joao was fantastic! Couldnât have asked for a better guide. Gave us great suggestions for stops and meals, including his personal favorite roast pig restaurant in Mealhado. And went out of his way to accommodate the one in our group on crutches. Will definitely specifically request JoĂŁo next time weâre in Portugal or Spain. "
"We had an excellent experience with Andre! He met us in the lobby of our hotel as expected and assisted with our luggage. He is a very skilled driver, has very good local knowledge and advised us of things to do during our stops. He is a good communicator and was very helpful.

"Wonderful experience.
Luis was on time and very professional. He was an excellent driver and gave helpful information at our stops along the way. Thank you for a very pleasant experience."
"All our Day Trip drivers were wonderful; Fabio was the best! Above and beyond. One day the hotel bellman forgot to bring down one of our bags, the hotel called while we already on the road. Fabio cheerfully turned around so we could retrieve the bag and then helped us to adjust our itinerary for the day.
We had a very quick turnaround to make an engagement for a wine-tasting after Fabio dropped us at our hotel in Porto. He called the venue for us to confirm and on learning they could not accommodate us he quickly called around to find us another option. He also gave us a number of suggestions for restaurants and places to visit.
Fabio was a careful and competent driver. He spoke with us in English and helped us with reservations and queries in Portuguese. He was always courteous and helpful; quiet when we were quiet and charming and informative when we had questions. My whole group would give him as many stars as are allowed in any rating. "
"Luis did a great job! He was very professional and helpful in making our journey memorable. We would recommend Daytrip to anyone going to the Lisbon area who wants first-class treatment.
Thanks for a wonderful experience"
"Miguel was another excellent choice as driver. He was very helpful and even helped arrange a canal cruise in Aveiro for us."
