Ines P.
Hi! My name is Ines and I would be thrilled to be your guide in the Lisbon area. I studied history of art, holding both a degree and a masters, and have 10 years of experience as a tour guide. I am passionate about art, architecture, history and culture. Whereas you want to enjoy the architecture highlights and hidden gems of the Lisbon area; explore the art scene being or contemporary art or Portugal’s unique crafts; or even combine history, art and indulging in gastronomy and wine tasting I am more than welcome to cater to your preferences. I am also a mother of two young children, plus I have worked for more than 12 years as a museum and heritage educator so, I am very happy to create tours or adapt them to families travelling with children of all ages.

Diogo C.
Hello, I’m Diogo — a private Lisbon tour guide, sommelier, and host, with a background in hospitality and Portuguese culture. I’ve worked for many years in the hospitality world in Portugal and London, including as a sommelier, and I studied the WSET Level 3 in Wines in London. I’m also the co-founder of a Portuguese wine brand in Alcácer do Sal, which gives me a strong connection to local producers and the countryside beyond the cities. While wine is an important part of my background, my tours are not limited to food and wine. I design private, tailor-made tours from Lisbon that can focus on culture, history, landscapes, architecture, and everyday local life, or combine these elements naturally with wine and gastronomy when it makes sense. I work exclusively with private guests and small groups, creating experiences at a relaxed pace and shaped around each guest’s interests. Whether you’re visiting Portugal for the first time or returning to explore more deeply, my goal is to offer an authentic, personal perspective rather than a standard sightseeing tour. I look forward to welcoming you and helping you experience Portugal in a genuine, unhurried way.

I’m a Danish guide based in Lisbon, where I’ve been living since the summer of 2024.

Pedro F.
I`m a calm person and I pay attention to detail. Also i like to pass on knowledge and good mood and i have a degree from Turismo de Portugal specific to the Sintra area and 8 years of experience. Regarding the area where I work and where I have always lived, I know all the monuments and their stories. The Sintra area is not only palaces and gardens, it has beaches and other interests as well. I like to provide a good experience and captivate people in relation not only to the monuments but also to our gastronomy and local handicrafts. I think the experience is further enriched with a local guide who knows the stories and places that don't usually come in the tourist guides.

Pedro G.
I was born and raised in Eric Eira, a coastal village located approximately 45 minutes from Lisbon. I pursued my academic studies in Audiovisual Communication in Lisbon and currently reside in the city. With a strong passion for sports and outdoor activities, I have a deep connection to the ocean. I practice bodyboarding regularly and enjoy spending time in nature, including multi-day trekking experiences. These interests have shaped my appreciation for both Lisbon’s coastal identity and its surrounding landscapes. I have been working as a professional tour guide since 2014. My career began following a transformative overland journey from England to Guinea-Bissau with my partner (now my wife) and close friends. This experience reinforced my vocation for communication, cultural exchange, and connecting with people from diverse backgrounds. Upon returning to Lisbon, I recognized the emerging potential of tuk-tuk tourism within the city. I saw this as an opportunity to combine my passion for Lisbon with a dynamic and people-oriented profession. Since then, I have been continuously active in the industry, providing personalized and engaging tour experiences.

I'm a very engaging, helpful person, and I have an energetic nature. I'm also passionate about socializing and sharing my passion for this beautiful Island, which led me to become a motorbike guide. I love to spend time on my motorbike enjoying the old roads around Madeira Island, whilst planning for more "out of the normal beat" Tours. I also appreciate life's simple things, like a dinner out with family or making a new friend smile. Madeira Island was my place of birth, and I still live in the same area where I was born, as I never found another place like this. . . At present, I still travel a lot, sometimes professionally and other times leisurely. Looking forward to meeting you, and introducing you to the authentic Madeira Island Spirit!!

Ricardo M.
My name is Ricardo and I was born and raised in Porto City. Although tourism changed Porto for the best (in my opinion) for the last 5 years, me and my family had to move out from Porto, into the bush, housing and living costs became very high and we made the choice that we should move out to the countryside. In this last year 2020 and even this year 2021 with pandemic work just fell down drastically and we had to adapt. Making Port Wine, Muscat wine and sometimes olive oil in a amatuer way since 2014, this hobbie become my family income. With vineyards and olives fields almost abandoned from the pandemic I rolled up my sleeves and went to work, asking neighbours and friends if I could keep their grapes and olives for harvest time, their answers were immediately YES Dividing my life between Porto and Douro Valley, me and my family feel completely safe, happy and relaxed with this new way of living your life. Come and see my amazing town Porto and Douro Valley Wine Region from the eyes of a local !!! Hope to see you soon. Cheers !!! Ricardo

Max K.
Hi, I’m Max, and I’m here to take you on an unforgettable adventure in the Algarve! My journey has always been driven by adventure and a great passion for the sea and the skies. Many people know me from my acting career (I was an actor for 20 years on Brazilian television), but my true calling has always been exploring the world. At 22 years old, I became a private pilot, and since then, I’ve completed some major expeditions across Brazil in my airplane, logging over 5,000 flight hours. But my thirst for adventure didn’t stop there! I travelled 21,000 kilometers across South America in a motorhome, living on the road for six months. And as a true ocean lover, I have crossed the Atlantic three times on sailing yachts! For the past seven years, I have been living aboard my sailboat, learning that the best way to live is with my feet in the water and my mind open to discoveries. I’ve been living in Portugal for several years and I'm ready to be your guide in this spectacular region, sharing not only the best routes but also incredible stories and unique experiences. If you’re looking for an authentic adventure, with someone who truly understands and lives the spirit of sailing, I’m the perfect host to take you on this journey. As your local guide, I am committed to creating a personalized and unforgettable experience. Whether you’re seeking breathtaking natural wonders, captivating cultural encounters, or a deeper connection with the Algarve’s sea soul, I invite you to embark on this journey with me. I’ll take you beyond the usual tourist routes, sharing hidden gems, fascinating stories, and the true essence of this magical region. Are you ready to sail with me?

Neide P.
Hi, my name is Neide. Born and raised in countryside of the Algarve, I developed an innate connection with nature from a young age. My childhood was spent exploring the lush landscapes along the coast and learning about the diverse flora and fauna, which sparked my lifelong passion for conservation and sharing nature's wonders with others. I studied Nature Guiding at the University of the Azores, which enriched my knowledge of the natural world. Since 2015, I've worked in the tourism industry across various stunning destinations such as the Azores, Iceland, Norway, Lisbon region, and my beloved Algarve. My journey has enriched me with a diverse skill set, encompassing tour guiding, hospitality, management, cooking, and gardening. These multifaceted experiences have provided me with a holistic perspective on the tourism industry, allowing me to anticipate and cater to the needs of every guest. Returning to my hometown, I felt inspired to share its hidden gems and rich stories with visitors. My tours offer immersive experiences that highlight the Algarve's natural beauty and cultural heritage. Join me on a journey through pristine beaches, lush hills, and secret landscapes, as we explore the Algarve's unique history and traditions. I am dedicated to providing a personalized and unforgettable adventure, whether you're seeking breathtaking scenery, cultural insights, or a deeper connection with the Algarve. Let's create lasting memories together!

“Sintra, Boca do inferno, & Cascais”
Pedro promptly picked us up from our hotel as arranged at 9am. First stop was Sintra, Pena Palace. Once we arrived, we appreciated having Pedro not only drive us but also guide us up and thru the palace. Sintra is a very beautiful but incredibly busy area. Having Pedro guide & drive us made it so much easier. He shared lots of knowledge and is very easy to spend 8 hours with. We would recommend Pedro & GowithGuide to anyone.

“Lisbon with Pedro F October 2 nd”
Extremely disappointed . 1.Pedro is from Sintra and has no knowledge or idea about Lisbon. Did not know the sightseeing places . Had absolutely no knowledge of the history. It was a disaster. Luckily we found a local guide and had to pay extra . 2. The car rented by Pedro was old and and air conditioning was not working properly. 3 The least one expect is driver cum guide with decent knowledge of the place. We spent lot of money and most valuable time. I certainly feel we should be compensated.

“Great Wine, stunning vistas, fantastic guide”
We spent an incredible, relaxing day with Pedro. Within 15 mins of meeting him it felt like we were lifelong friends. Our tour was very relaxed and laid back. He took us to two wonderful vineyards and out for lunch at a fantastic restaurant. Would highly recommend Pedro as a guide if you’re looking for easy conversation and a relaxed experience

Local Tour Guides in Portugal
Elevate your Portugal trip with private tours at the hand of a guide who creates personal moments, fresh itineraries and access to unforgettable adventures.
Escape towards the Alentejo region with a local leading the way and immerse yourself in community culture by participating in a traditional pottery workshop or enjoying a leisurely meal at a family-owned restaurant. The flavors of Alentejan cuisine shine through dishes like migas and açorda, and creating your own pottery souvenir is a great way to preserve the memory of your trip.
A private guide can lead you to the lesser-known town of Monsaraz, a picturesque hilltop settlement with panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and the Alqueva Dam. Exploration has just gotten easier!
