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 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.

Miguel P.
I have always felt a deep connection to my country’s nature and history. I studied Biology and traveled across Portugal working in Nature Conservation, uncovering the breathtaking landscapes and hidden gems that make this land so special. More than just a guide, I am passionate about sharing the true soul of Portugal with those who visit us. Our history, our cuisine, and above all, our wine tell the story of an ancient country rich in tradition and culture. To me, there’s nothing better than exploring centuries-old cellars, tasting delicious wines, and diving into the stories that each bottle holds. Join me on an authentic and unforgettable journey through Portugal. From Lisbon’s historic streets to untouched natural landscapes, from prestigious wine cellars to hidden gastronomic treasures, every experience will be a true feast for the senses. Portugal awaits you. Are you ready for this adventure?

Lisbon Tour Reviews
Robert l B.
“Wonderful trip around Lisbon with an excellent guide !”
Our day was amazing traveling, learning, and experiencing the sights of this truly wonderful place. We quickly were able to see several important sites in a comfortable private car. I highly recommend this tour without hesitation. Very knowledgeable and friendly guide !
Dave R.
“Fantastic Tour of Sintra”
Goncalo provided a unique and wonderful experience for this visit. The Mercedes pickup provided a safe and luxury ride to Sintra with his incredible knowledge of Portuguese history and area info provided on the way out. As a private guide, he was able to take the vehicle up a private drive far higher up the mountain than you can access without a private guide. At 3 points on the tour from initial entry to accessing 2 areas of the Peña Palace we were able to bypass long lines that we would have waited in for a minimum of an hour otherwise. He gave a well directed tour of all the essential areas of the Palace with the incredible lookouts and views. We finished with a drop off at the old village which is a fun and worthwhile time. The only way to visit this unique and memorable spot. He's also a great guy !

“A fantastic foodie adventure”
Ida was such a lovely host for our crew. She had fun information as we trekked through the streets, and we enjoyed all the stops she took us too. Favorites were the Bifana & pastries.
