I started working in the industry as a trained and official Tour Guide in Portugal, followed by taking responsibility for new programmes for groups and high-end individual clients from Europe and North America. Then I started Portugal Travel Team in 1996 – nowadays a renowned DMC in this great destination, and a member of Euromic, of which I am Vice-President of the board.
Kind words.
We required many services and much time from your staff, and they did their job with pride, enthusiasm, and professionalism. Plus, they always had a smile on their face. My colleague is not easy to impress, and yet I can’t remember her ever being as complimentary as she is about your service and team.
