Good evening Ines, just back from a delightful Portugese tapas style meal near our Hotel. Thank you for the wonderful adventure we enjoyed so much through Lisbon. So many places we would never venture to visit on our own!! It was a shame about the tram, but that’s life, so be it, and isn’t the end of the world and an opportunity to improvise!! We still saw and experienced so much and enjoyed lots of of good historical background. Thanks for the recommendations which we will check out. If you are in London do connect with us and we can enjoy seeing you once again. All good wishes. Alexis & Tschong hieMusicians love to improvise!!

Andre was a very enjoyable guide. He was very friendly, easy to talk with, and knowledgeable about not only food but also history. He loves his country and its food and it shows. He was flexible, adaptive, and made sure we had all the foods we wanted to try, getting us into “off the map” places that helped us learn about and appreciate Portugal. Great tour.

We had the most incredible day with Tiago as our guide on our tour from Lisbon to the stunning palaces of Sintra. From the moment we met him, Tiago was warm, polite, and full of positive energy. He made us feel comfortable right away, and it was clear that he genuinely cared about making our experience unforgettable.
His knowledge of the area, history, and local culture added so much depth to our visit. Tiago went above and beyond to personalize the tour for us, sharing hidden gems and stories that made everything come to life. We never felt rushed and always felt like we were in great hands.
Thank you, Tiago, for being such an open-hearted and dedicated guide — you truly made our day in Sintra magical. Highly recommend this experience with him. An easy 10 out of 10!10 out of 10 for Tiago!

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful day trip to Sintra with Luis! Although we endured some rain during the first half of the day, Luis made the best of it and enabled us to enjoy all of Sintra and the surrounding area. Luis' deep knowledge of Portuguese history is amazing, which brought the diverse background of Sintra to life for us. I cannot recommend Luis more for a visit to Sintra or anywhere else in the Lisbon area!Fantastic day in Sintra!

Tiago was wonderful and we had a beautiful day visiting Sintra with him. He was on time and knowledgeable and knew all the best spots for pictures! He was also communicative prior to our tour to be sure we had tickets to get into Pena Palace at a good time and handled everything for us. Very happy and definitely recommend him. Beautiful day in Sintra

We had an amazing Food tour in Lisbon where we tasted very very authentic local foods that we would never have been able to find or have ever tried on our own. We do not eat gluten or dairy and Andre was able to take us out for some amazing food that did not involve either of those. I cannot highly recommend this enough.Beyond excellent

We loved our trip to Evora with Luis. First, Evora is a beautiful walled city with great character. The roman ruin, churches and cathedral were a great draw, but it was walking the streets and seeing the shops we loved the most. It was also wonderful to be outside of Lisbon for a day and see the countryside.
Second, Luis was a terrific guide for us. From the car ride first thing in the morning until the return trip in the afternoon he was filled with information. He weaved together questions we had from other tours with new information about our visit to Evora and really helped us form a more complete picture of Evora, Lisbon and Portugal (people, places, culture and history). He is a wealth of knowledge that flows in conversations and stories and kept us engaged all day. We highly recommend him for any tour and appreciate that he made our day very fun.Evora Day Trip with a Great Guide

We spent two delightful days touring Sintra and Evora with Rita. She was knowledgeable, full of interesting stories, and extremely accommodating to our group of twenty-seven. She anticipated our needs, planned a reasonable and enjoyable itinerary, and kept us on track. Rita had many suggestions for good places to eat, she knew alternative pathways for those who needed or wanted them, and created a good balance of tour time and free time. She is personable, funny, and her English is flawless. She took us to places off the beaten path and explained why what we were seeing was so important, and she shared anecdotes about what life in Portugal is like for the typical person. It is clear that she lives her country, and can see and talk about its flaws. I would hire her again enthusiastically and without reservation.Two delightful days with Rita

Great day! We lucky to have Tiago as our guide. He contacted us and spoke with us prior to meeting and ensured we were getting the most from our experience.
He added a visit to the westernmost part of Europe - Cabo da Roca and showed us Cascais. And still had us back in Lisbon by 3p
He was an excellent guide with his knowledge. He absolutely nailed our visit to the castle in Sintra- even in the pouring rain, highlighted the love story, architecture and history. Def recommend him for this trip. Sintra and Cacais in style!

Took us to some really nice spots to see the city & a lovely place for lunch.
She made us fall in love with Lisbon.

Rita was fabulous, knowledgeable, personable + engaging. We really appreciated her introduction to traditional Portuguese food + drink, including a quick shot of Ginjinha between stops. We loved the casualness of the places we visited from the best custard tart maker and charcuterie shop to the traditional restaurants while we enjoyed salt cod, sardines, cheeze, jambon, chicken croquettes + chorizo sausage along with local wine samplings. Aside from the food, Rita also provided us with interesting commentary on the city and took us to areas that we might not have discovered on our own. All that to say: Don’t hesitate!Rita was fabulous

Our group of 6 had a lovely private tour with Inês. It is clear that she loves the city and that she knows a lot about it and about Portugal. It is possible to tweak the tour so that she can include highlights and, if you are lucky, she will sing for you, which is a real treat. Highly recommendedLisboa gems with a Lisboa gem

An informative and pleasurable tour of Lisboa by a true local, Ines! I was the only one (lucky me!), and had her full attention. Ines knows Lisboa inside out and told me a great deal of the local history, not just of Lisbon but of Portugal - things I did not learn in Global History - it was interesting and informative. Ending at a small bar to have the popular Lisbon liquor was an added treat. I highly recommend this group tour!Informative and Pleasurable

Lilli is an extraordinary individual whose vibrant energy and extensive knowledge of Portugal transformed my two-day trip into an unforgettable experience. Her standout quality is her intuitive approach to personalizing the journey. She keenly aligns her insights with your interests, ensuring every moment is captivating. This personalized touch made all the difference, as she adeptly steered clear of topics that were less appealing to me.
Lilli’s passion for Portugal’s culture, history, and hidden treasures added a unique depth to the adventure. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an engaging and memorable experience in Portugal.
Lilli’s blend of professionalism, enthusiasm, and keen understanding of her companion’s interests makes her an ideal choice for a truly immersive exploration of this beautiful country.Lilli is an extraordinary individual whose vibrant energy and extensive knowledge of Portugal

Andre has a fantastic tour guide.
Andre messaged in advance to find out dietary requirements and accommodated two non-fish eaters (no easy feat in Lisbon).
We visited some hidden gems and tried an excellent selection of food and drink.
In addition to the food/drink choices, Andre was extremely knowledgeable, personable and really interesting. We had a trip planned to Sintra the following day and greatly appreciated Andre’s list of recommendations for that trip too.We highly recommend!

We spent the day with Luis who took us to Sintra and the Pena Palace. It was a wonderful day; he was informative, friendly, thoughtful, and pivoted to accommodate some weather changes to pack as much into the day as possible. His knowledge about Portugal history is worthy of an historian! We would love to have another tour with him in the future and highly recommend him.Fantastic day

He had answers to all of our questions and showed us how to get about on public transport - quite handy with all the hills!

Peter is a great guide! (Great tour in French)
He made us discover the history and evolution of Lisbon through the streets, monuments and its documented supports.
He captivated us during the entire visit, both on the historical, artistic, architectural part, etc...
Really unfortunate that we met him on the last day of our stay, we would have loved to do one of the other tours he offers.
A reason to return to Lisbon!

Ines was an incredibly informative guide. She pointed out things about Lisbon that we would never have known. I'm glad we passed on the big tour and picked this small group tour. You can instantly tell that she enjoys doing this and this isn't just another job. Everyone in my group enjoyed the little drink right after the tour started. The most interesting part for me was knowing that the road we were on was an old cemetery. I cannot think of anything that this tour could improve on. Thanks Ines!

We loved this tour. Peter is so knowledgeable about the history of the city and took us to lots of wee tucked away streets and places of historical importance. We learned so much in 3 hours. Cannot recommend highly enough. When we come back we would definitely try one of his other tours. Small numbers (there were 5 of us all together) meant it was easy to follow him into smaller spaces and ask questions during the tour. Lisbon has so much to see! Will return."We loved this tour!"

Lili not only was our tour guide in Lisbon, but we felt we were walking with a friend. Our trip to Lisbon was fantastic and it will be a very memorable one because of Lili. She is so caring and very knowledgeable about the city and the best places to visit, which she took us around. At the end of our second day tour with her, we felt we had known her for a long time, we think we had got a new friend in Lisbon and we are ready to welcome her in our town in the state of Maryland.
Thank you, Lili, for the time you spent with us, it was simply fantastic you being an excellent host.

You will definitely find more than what she tells you, she will exceed your expectations, she is more than a professional, she is like a friend you haven’t seen for years.
Even before the tour started, she started to support us in matters such as the hotel we will stay in, transportation, weather conditions, etc.
She listens to your tastes and what you want to do and organizes the program accordingly. She definitely leaves the decision up to you, but she is not wrong in her advice and does not give up on increasing your energy with her smiling face.
We would like to thank her once again for making us spend four very enjoyable days, for her sincerity, thoughtful approach, kindness and punctuality. We are very happy to know you..You will definitely find more than what she tells you, she will exceed your expectations, she is more than a professional, she is like a friend you haven’t seen for years.
