  • Wondering where you can visit during your walking tours in Lisbon?

    Depending on how much time you want to dedicate to your tour, there are many places to discover by walking in Lisbon. Perhaps you only have a few hours available, then we recommend a "kickstarter" Lisbon walking tour. During your 90 minutes together, your local host will provide you with a comprehensive overview of the city, including stops at Lisbon's most popular square, Praca do Comercio, the Baixa neighborhood and shops on Rua da Prata, and Lisbon's Se Cathedral.

    Or how about getting off the beaten path and discovering a whole new side of Lisbon? There is a walking tour for this too! Your private guide will take you to the city's hidden gems including quiet parks like Jardim da Estrela located across from Estrela Basilica, the first church ever dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, local markets, and the most spectacular views offered by this stunning city at Miradouro Sao Pedro de Alcantara.

    Want to step deep into the city's history? Then go for a Lisbon walking tour through the Alfama district. Your guide will lead you through the neighborhood's famed, ancient streets, winding through the labyrinth of charming, cobbled streets. Not only does the history of this fascinating district date back thousands of years, but it is also the birthplace of Portugal's haunting Fado music.

    And if there is one thing that our Lisbon walking tours work up, it is an appetite. Luckily your local hosts are the top experts on local snacks and beverages. Curious to learn about the best bars and restaurants to get a real taste of Portuguese cuisine? Just ask your guide to take you on a food tour in Lisbon.

Lisbon with Jorge

We had the most amazing experience with Jorge. His historical and geographical knowledge of Lisbon was hugely informative along side his passion and dry sense of humour. We would highly recommend this tour. We learned so much from Jorge who was also an excellent photographer and we haven’t stopped taking panoramic pictures tweaking here and there. Thank you Jorge. You truly made our experience very special with lots of laughter.

12 out of 10

It would be an understatement to say that Jorge’s tour of Lisbon exceeded our expectations. On a scale of 1 to 10, Jorge is a 12. He was one of the original five guides for Get Locals when they started in Lisbon many years ago. Having a guide who is both a pioneer and a city planner for Lisbon offers a unique combination of experience and knowledge. My family and I benefited from Jorge’s talents on a most memorable city tour. I would confidently say that if you do not choose Jorge as your guide for a tour of Lisbon, you will miss out on something truly special

Sylvia hosted my family and me for a food tour in Lisbon. The words that we used to describe her at breakfast the next day were delightful, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, captivating, lovely and many more superlative adjectives. The places she took us to are the types of places we love to go to but would never find them on our own in a million years. The food served was truly amazing with lots of variety. At each restaurant we visited Sylvia told the story of why she chose this one and with each dish she told it's story. I would unhesitantly recommend you engage Sylvia for your food tour of Lisbon. Do it now before she gets too busy to accommodate you!

Excellent intro to Lisbon

I’d thoroughly recommend Igor as your guide to Lisbon. In particular, a first day tour from Igor with all his local and cultural knowledge is the perfect set up to a few days of further exploring. Igor is very friendly and it was a pleasure to spend a morning with him. Don’t forget to ask him for his restaurant recommendations!! Obrigado Igor!
