Lisbon Private Tour Guides

“One great guide. ”

Inez spent a day with us in Lisbon and we covered a large area and got a good understanding of the history and culture of the city. She recommended a restaurant and helped us order a great selection of tapas. Also went with her the next day to Sintra and had a second wonderful tour.

Dear Ned, Thank you for such a lovely review! I really enjoyed spending those two days with you, exploring Lisbon and Sintra. I’m glad you enjoyed the tours and that you liked the restaurant recommendation! It was a pleasure showing you around, and I hope to see you again next time you’re in Portugal!

“Wonderful guide. I’m”

Inez gave us a great tour of Sintra. She worked there in two palaces for ten years and knows the details inside and out. We learned so much and had a wonderful time with her. She also took us to a nice pastry shop where we had a local snack and coffee. She is a perfect choice if you want to have thorough tour and a good time.

Dear Ned, Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure showing you around Sintra and sharing some of the details that make these palaces so special. And of course, no visit to Sintra is complete without a good pastry and coffee! I’m so glad you enjoyed the day, and I hope to see you again in Portugal!

“Lisbon’s Hills and Hidden Gems with Joao”

We thoroughly enjoyed our 4½-hour walking tour of Lisbon with Joao in early October. He met us at the cruise port to begin our tour. One practical tip: be sure to tell him which cruise terminal you’ll be arriving at. Joao took us to several interesting sights, many of which we hadn’t seen on a previous cruise excursion. Unlike guides who leave you to explore on your own for an hour, he stayed with us throughout the tour, sharing his knowledge and answering our questions. My wife, our two friends, and I are all seniors in good physical condition, but Lisbon’s hills were still a bit of a challenge. Joao did a good job of pacing the climbs and making the tour comfortable. We suggest asking for a few seated breaks at strategic points along the route. Joao is personable and extremely knowledgeable, with insights extending well beyond Lisbon. He made a real effort to tailor his commentary to our interests. All four of us highly recommend Joao for a walking tour of Lisbon.

Thank you so very much for your review, dear Carlos. It was a pleasure making this walking tour with you, and as I said when we first met, Lisbon is always up and down-hill. But doable... ;-) Hopefully we meet again, maybe further south in Morocco! Warmest Regards and all the best for you all, Joao D.
