I became a Tourist Guide in 2015 when I decided to give professional continuity to a life that had already crossed other professions. My passion for history and travel brought me the desire to study and share knowledge about the "history of places", to go beyond what we see, to enter the soul of what we visit and to learn a little about the mentalities of those who inhabited and lived in the same places we visit today. Private visits are the best way for me to express myself. In my 7-seater van, I welcome my guests in English, French, Italian and Portuguese. My tours focus on an off-the-beaten-track approach to surprise my clients by discovering the natural and historical beauty of Portugal, but even places that are considered too touristy can be given a unique and meaningful reading.

Olá! I'm Filipe, your dedicated guide to the enchanting Azores.

With me, you'll gain more than just a tour; you'll experience the Azores through the eyes of someone who deeply loves and understands this land.

I’ve been touring the Azores islands since I was 14, experiencing the trails and discovering the most magical places that this archipelago has to offer. At the age of 16, after "stealing" my father's diving mask, I became fascinated with the underwater world, exploring the most untouchable reefs of the Atlantic North . Later, as soon as I finish high school, I start to travel the world embarking on one of my greatest adventures in Asia, where I graduated in Law at the University of Macau. Back on the island, I developed a different tourism project, providing sensations of well-being and pleasure, based on high quality standards.

Hello and welcome! I'm your guide here on the beautiful island of São Miguel in the Azores. Based in the small fishing village of Rabo de Peixe, I specialize in boat tours that blend adventure, nature, and authentic local culture. Together, we’ll explore the rugged northern coastline aboard a powerful, high-speed vessel—cruising past dramatic cliffs, hidden waterfalls, and the lush tea plantations of Porto Formoso. If we head west, we’ll navigate around volcanic rock formations like the iconic "Elephant Trunk," uncover secret coves, and take in some of the most breathtaking coastal views the island has to offer. For those looking for something even more immersive, I also offer traditional fishing experiences. Step aboard a classic local fishing boat and spend time with a seasoned fisherman, learning the old ways of the sea that still shape daily life here. My goal is to take you beyond the usual tourist path. I want to show you parts of the island that few get to see—raw, real, and filled with stories. From historical landmarks to natural wonders, from local legends to marine life, I bring both passion and knowledge to each trip. The Azores are my home, and sharing them is what I love most. Whether you're here to capture stunning photos, discover new perspectives, or simply enjoy the salty breeze and ocean air, you're in for an unforgettable experience. So, let’s set off together on a journey that’s equal parts excitement, beauty, and connection—with nature, the ocean, and the true spirit of this island.

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!!

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

“Magda is delightful!! Highly recommend!”
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Magda through old Porto. She gave us a terrific overview of the history, architecture and fascinating stories that make the city such a treasure. She was keen to what we hoped to see and checked everything off our list. During the tour, through engaging conversations, Magda stopped along the way to show us special little gems. From pastries to authentic Portuguese shopping experiences and the best spot for a great lunch, Magda had all the answers for us. Magda has a passion for the local and authentic experiences which we greatly appreciated. Would highly recommend. Muito obrigado, Magda! Richard and CJ

Dear Richard, dear CJ, thank you so much for sharing this experience. It was an incredible morning with great communication from you as well, I learnt a lot from your country and people and the time just ran so well! I am very pleased you enjoyed it. Wishing you all the best during your stay in Portugal and I am sure that you will come back to visit us and practise the Portuguese language "in loco"! Muito obrigada. Warmest regards, Magda

“Dissatisfied.”
Mr .Hugo never contacted me to tell me what time he would pick me up at the airport. In the reservation I made it said that two days before the tour they would provide me with a telephone number and it never happened , I waster one hours at the airport and he never showed up , send another person who had no information about me. A fatal and frustrating experience for me, I don’t think I will hire anyone and anywhere’s in the world for another tours . Mr Hugo is not truly professional for the industry since Mrs Paula Mendounza was very sorry about what had happened to me and Hugo did not provide her with anything other than my name

Complete Lie. We must clarify that this review does not reflect the facts. Pre-tour details were sent in advance on the original booking thread: guide’s name, phone, and instructions that the guide would wait at Lisbon Airport with a sign. These messages are timestamped and on file. On the service day, the traveler used a different account, which is why those messages were not visible on the profile from which this review was posted. Platform support later confirmed the second account. Despite the confusion, the guest met our guide at Starbucks around 08:30 (the scheduled start time) and the tour ran until ~16:30—the full 8 hours delivered. Because this account of events is incorrect, it risks misleading future travelers and unfairly harming our business. For transparency, we’re formally asking that this be noted/clarified, as we can document every step above. To future guests: we always share guide contacts and clear meeting instructions ahead of time and remain on site with signage to ensure a smooth pickup. If you have any concerns about logistics, we’re happy to explain our procedures and provide proof of communications.

“LISBON a magic City”
We highly recommend using Joao when you visit Lisbon . From the moment we met Joao it was evident his passion & knowledge of Lisbon was brilliant. He took us to wonderful look outs away from the hustle & bustle of the usual tourist spots. His knowledge of the history of Portugal was magnificent which gave us a true picture of the rich history. A standout , was Joao took us to his neighbourhood local restaurant for lunch , where we had a traditional Portuguese meal. Joao was a magnificent host & true ambassador of Lisbon , 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!
