Nice introduction to the city. Our guide was engaging, knowledgeable, and full of local insights that brought the city to life, The pace was comfortable, and there were plenty of stops for photos and questions.

Our tour guide was Natalia and we thought she was excellent! Not only was she exceptionally knowledgeable on the history of Portugal, but she was also passionate about it. Part of our tour included 2 stops along our walk - 1 at a locally run pastry shop that has been in business since 1928; and the other was at a small restaurant for a delicious cod cake and local green wine. Both stops were excellent. Highly recommend Natalia!

Pedro was an incredible guide—knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely passionate about Lisbon’s history and culture. He brought the city to life with fascinating stories, local insights, and a great sense of humor. The pace was perfect, and he made sure everyone felt included and comfortable throughout the tour. From hidden gems to iconic landmarks, Pedro gave us a deeper appreciation for Lisbon’s charm and complexity. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a meaningful and memorable introduction to the city! Obrigada!

Lots of stairs and slopes to navigate. Guide was very knowledgeable and spoke very fast, and he spoke a lot. He did buy a beer and drink it while guiding us, and he swore a few times during the tour. He also walked very quickly for most on the tour.
