A lower headline price can be the right choice when you already have your transport and want to choose what to pay for along the way. An inclusive price can suit you when you want more of the day arranged together. The useful comparison is the cost of the day you actually want, with the same group, starting point and visits.

Published prices for a private group of two
The figures below are examples from the current Yes, You Deserve tour pages, checked on 15 October 2026. They show the total for the selected private group of two. Use the current price selector for your own group and travel season, then confirm the arrangements for your dates.
| Private tour | November–April | May–October |
|---|---|---|
| Personalized Half-Day 4 hours · starts in Sintra | €440 per group | €560 per group |
| Personalized Full-Day 8 hours · starts in Sintra | €580 per group | €700 per group |
| Half-Day All-Inclusive 4 hours, including transfers | €710 per group | €820 per group |
| Full-Day All-Inclusive 8 hours · lunch included | €1,000 per group | €1,150 per group |
The inclusions differ. Personalized prices cover your private guide and tour transport, with tickets, meals, drinks, tastings and optional transfers paid separately. All-Inclusive includes private pickup and return from Lisbon or Cascais, tour transport and tickets for the monuments agreed in your itinerary. A Portuguese lunch is included in the Full-Day All-Inclusive.
See the current Personalized Half-Day, Personalized Full-Day and All-Inclusive prices and inclusions before choosing.
A group total changes the comparison
Check whether an advertised amount is a fare for one traveller or the total for the whole private group. On our tour pages, the per-person figure is the group total divided by the selected number of guests. You reserve the private experience for your group.
These examples use the same season and format. They illustrate how a private-group price works; your quote should also reflect the people travelling, including any children, and the arrangements you agree.
What is included, and what costs extra?
Your starting point and return
Our Personalized tours start in Sintra. If you are staying in Lisbon or Cascais, include the cost of getting to the meeting point and returning afterwards, or ask for an optional private transfer, charged separately. All-Inclusive includes private pickup and return for guests staying in Lisbon or Cascais.
Time matters here too: the four-hour Half-Day All-Inclusive includes its transfers. For the longer visit, agree the pickup and return arrangements in advance. Our private tour selection guide helps you compare tour formats and realistic visits.
Tickets for the visits you choose
On Personalized tours, monument tickets are paid separately. On All-Inclusive, tickets for the monuments agreed in your itinerary are included. Confirm the places and entry options together; an inclusive tour price does not mean entry to every palace in Sintra.
Advance tickets also have conditions. For example, Pena Palace requires a booked date and time for its interior visit. A prepaid ticket helps organise the visit, but does not remove entry checks or guarantee a queue-free day. For the difference between transport and guiding, read private guide versus driver in Sintra.
Lunch, tastings and upgrades
A traditional Portuguese lunch is included in Full-Day All-Inclusive. It is not included in Half-Day All-Inclusive or either Personalized option. On Personalized tours, meals, drinks and tastings are paid separately.
Colares wine tasting is included in All-Inclusive when you choose it as an activity. Optional premium experiences can carry a separate charge: the current All-Inclusive page lists the Signature Fortified Wine Tasting at an additional €55 per guest, replacing the included Colares tasting. Confirm any upgrade and whether it fits your itinerary before adding it.
Compare the complete cost of the same day
Start with the tour total, then add the items you still need to pay for:
For two guests in November–April, Personalized Full-Day is listed at €580 and Full-Day All-Inclusive at €1,000. The €420 difference covers a different bundle of arrangements: the All-Inclusive includes Lisbon or Cascais pickup and return, agreed monument tickets and Portuguese lunch. That difference is not proof of a saving; price the separate items you would actually choose before deciding.
Similarly, an optional tasting at €55 each adds €110 for two guests. Including that choice in your comparison gives you a clearer picture than comparing a base tour price with an upgraded experience.
Check the booking terms as well. A deposit confirms the booking, while the payment and cancellation conditions explain the commitments around it. Confirm your total and payment arrangements before paying.
Which option fits your visit?
The useful choice is the one that fits your priorities and budget. You can enjoy a focused half-day without trying to reproduce a full-day route. If you prefer arranging your own transport and entries, compare those choices on their own terms too.
Six things to confirm before booking
- Your full group: the number of adults and children, with children’s ages.
- Your date and duration: the correct season and the time you have available.
- The pickup and return: the places, timings and any separate transfer charge.
- Your visits: the monuments and entry options covered by the price.
- Food and extras: lunch, drinks, tastings and any premium upgrades you choose.
- The booking total: the final group amount, deposit, balance and cancellation terms.
With those details written down, you can compare quotes without guessing what is missing.
