The customer
Rota da Serra: I'm Rota da Serra's digital assistant. I use artificial intelligence. I can help with guest questions and activity requests; if you prefer, I'll hand the conversation to a person at any time.
Rota da Serra: Rota da Serra, good morning. Nuno is out in the hills with a group. Tell me which activity you would like and I'll pass your request to him.
Daniel: Hello, I'd like to book the van tour of Sintra.
Rota da Serra: Noted. Which day would you like, and a second day in case the first is full?
Daniel: Saturday, or Sunday if Saturday is full.
Rota da Serra: Thank you. How many people are coming?
Daniel: What happens if it rains? Do we get our money back?
Rota da Serra: I can't promise a refund or another date: Nuno will reply with the operator's own bad-weather policy, as written, and I don't have it here. I'll pass the question to him with your request.
Daniel: We are four adults.
Rota da Serra: Noted. Nuno will confirm whether there is a place. Would you like a private or a shared departure? And how would you like the reply?
