Hello. My name is Marisa and I am a tour guide in the ancient, mysterious and beautiful city of Lisbon. Lisbon is an ancient city and Phoenicians, Romans, Muslims, Catholics passed through this city all left their mark in heritage, words and food. Lisbon was also a city of spies. Even the real James Bond ( yes, it was a real James Bond) lived here and worked here. So, if you want to join me in this journey, I offer you, in Lisbon, 2 tours: a tour to discover the old town of Lisbon and a spy tour, focusing on world war II. But if you want to experience a magical place, I'll take you to Pena Palace. Pena Palace is a must-see, in the beautiful, romantic and world heritage, Sintra Village. And in the end, before you leave Portugal, I promise you will understand the true meaning of the Portuguese word Saudade. See you soon. Goodbye or Adeus!

We are mindful of the changes the tourism boom has brought to Lisbon in recent years, which is why we support the art of hospitality without neglecting our genuine Lisboan identity and this is what we will share with you. We like detours and how they keep surprising us. We might stop for 20 minutes to see the sunset or take a walk and go have a ginginha at that special place. We don’t want your trip to Lisbon to taste like a frozen meal. What we serve here is homemade and freshly prepared.

Olá! Hi! I’m Izzy! Thanks for coming to my page and hopefully soon, Porto! Originally from Lisbon, I moved to Porto in 98 to get my college degree in Biology. So quickly I fell in love with this city, its people, its food and wine - Porto is the homeland of the famous Port Wine and Francesinha, one of the best sandwiches in the world - its rich diverse history and world-renowned cultural treasures that I have been living here since then. After University, I lived in Paris for one year, where I got a graduate degree in Image, Communication and Protocol - communicating with people is my passion – and I have been working in Tourism and Hospitality for the past years. Traveling is all about exploring and understanding the place you visit, its people, history, culture and heritage diversity, as well as experience their traditions and gastronomy. Only this way you’ll be able to make unforgettable memories that will last a lifetime. As your guide, I´ll show you the city of Porto beyond the standard and conventional tourist-made itineraries, with all the well-known highlights, on tailor-made experiences, often along unexpected routes. Whether it’s a Walking Tour through Medieval Porto, a Culinary Tasting at Porto’s most iconic restaurants, or a Guided Tour in the North of Portugal, for small groups, couples, families, students, business professionals or solo travellers, anything is possible. Just choose from one or more of my predesignated tour options or contact me and I will create the best itinerary based on your interests and needs! See you soon!

Olá, dear traveller. My name is Alessia,born in Italy but raised as citizen of the world, in soul. I studied Foreign Languages and graduated in Tourism as certified European Tour Leader. My inescapable passion for travel, for cultures and photography led me to Portugal, where I fell madly in love with Porto, living it with overwhelming love and losing myself in its history and tradition, among sunshine and waves, breathtaking views, excellent Portoguese wines and cuisine but above all, among the romantic and timeless glimpses of its invincible beauty. Come with me on a journey through the scents of old markets, of stories of authentic people, sailos and conquerors ... till the secret places that only locals and those who enjoy the less touristy routes can know. If you are looking for a tour that can be different from the ones in the catalogues and that will captivate you with Portuguese tales to take home as a precious souvenirs - this is exectly where you will find it.

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.

In the United Kingdom, I graduated in Information Systems and returned to Porto to get a Master's degree in Management. During my degree in the United Kingdom, I made friends with students from various corners of the world: Italians, Germans, French, Senegalese, Thais, Malawians, Turks, Poles, Czechs, etc., also living in students accommodations in the university campus, where the kitchens were shared, one of the things that gave me greater pleasure, was to share our different gastronomies, besides, each one love to mention what can best be discovered in each country and in their native cities, without forgetting soccer preferences! At the same time, I got a part-time job on the weekends at the Holiday Inn Hotel, to help with my expenses. There where I worked nights in the bar and restaurant. Here, once again, I shared and heard stories from the four corners of the world from my colleagues and guests. Then, on my return to Portugal and after taken a Master degree in Business Management at FEP (Faculty of Economics of Porto), I started working 9 hours a day in an accounting office making business and financial plans. Tired and seeing that this would not be a future for me, I decided to create my own business in the tourism sector and in an area that has always attracted me, the travel sector. That's how I decided to open a travel agency initially specializing in incoming tourism, more specifically on sightseeing tours and later in outgoing tourism. As I felt I needed more knowledge in the area, I enrolled in the course of certified tourism driver of the Escola de Turismo do Porto. This was an intensive 350-hour course of study in local guiding and domestic and international tours directing. I received my SNATTI (National Union for Tourist Guides) membership certificate on May December 20,2020, and it has been a blessing ever since. I have a Portuguese Class B Driver’s License and I also have a First Aid Certificate.

I cannot imagine how we could have gone to Cabo Da Roca, Sintra and Pena Palace without Marisa. She was delightful, her English is excellent and we had a fabulous day. All places were crowded but she was able to maneuver us everywhere with minimal waiting. I highly recommend her!! Anne O'Connell

This tour was easily my favorite experience during my vacation. Joana is a wonderful guide, very friendly, knowledgeable, and considerate. She had a great day lined up for us with two wine tastings and a lunch. Douro Valley was absolutely breathtaking, and we had plenty of opportunities to stop, appreciate the views, and take pictures. Highly recommend this tour! Joana, thank you so much, we had such a lovely day!

“Great way to see and learn about the city!”
Went on a morning tour and had a great time! Our guide for the morning, Pacio, was friendly and informative and we learned a lot about the city. We booked the tour early in the week, so we were able to follow up on some of his many suggestions for where to go and what to do. There were a lot of nice sights and plenty of photo opportunities. Highly recommend this tour!

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!
