Fabulous day to welcome the showers to Lisbon. This was a well paced tour, our guide Phillipe, was excellent. The snacks on the tour and sample of green wine were welcomed. Small group was advantageous and gave us time to get to know other travellers. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed our tour very much! We saw several neighborhoods, learned helpful history, and enjoyed the pastries and snacks. We even learned some shortcuts for getting around! Caterina was a charming guide and it was clear she loves sharing her city with visitors like us!

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!
