Hello! Welcome to the most beautiful city in the world: Lisbon. I was born and raised in here and I cannot see myself living in any other city. I have a Bachelor Degree in Tourism and was licensed National Tourist Guide in 1998. I finished a Degree in History in 2013 and in 2021 my Master in History and Philosophy of Science. I have been working as a tourist guide with german, english and portuguese speaking groups in roundtrips/circuits within the country. I have experience in hiking tours, cultural tours and guided tours of monuments and museums throughout the whole national territory. I manage the projects Passeios Literários and Lisbon by the Book — both specialized in literary guided tours of Lisbon, and work as a guide for both projects as well. I’m the co-creator and responsible for the development of guided tours through the cultural heritage of the city of Lisbon for the project História LX — History, Heritage and Culture of Lisbon. I’m also the co-creator and responsible for the project Guide in Lisbon — specialized Tours. I have special interests in History, History of Science and Medicine and the History of Mentalities.

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.

“A Day To Remember”
My family and I had a great day with Duarte. He is a great conversationalist and extremely courteous and considerate. He planned the tour to my family's specifications and we appreciated his flexibility. You cannot find a more knowledgeable and passionate guide and we would not hesitate to book him again for a future tour in the Lisbon area. Thanks to Duarte for showing us a great time.

Good morning, Mr Scott. Thank you very much for your kind words, but I must say that the ‘culprit’ behind the wonderful day we spent together was you and your super friendly family.

Local Tour Guides in Sintra
Uncover Sintra’s charming beauty with the knowledge, skills and understanding of a local guide. Create memories that last a lifetime through private tours.
The expertise, knowledge, and warm-hearted nature of a tour guide in Sintra can significantly enhance your visit, making it both informative and emotionally enriching. A seasoned guide brings the town's rich tapestry of history, culture, and legends to life with captivating stories and insightful commentary. For example, as you wander through the enchanting Pena Palace, your guide might share tales of its whimsical Romanticism architecture and the royal intrigues that once played out within its vibrant walls. In the mysterious Quinta da Regaleira, the guide’s detailed explanations of the symbolic meanings behind the Initiation Well and the garden’s hidden tunnels add a layer of mystique to your exploration.
A guide’s local knowledge also uncovers gems like the serene Monserrate Palace and its exotic gardens, or a humble walk through Biester Palace, revealing their historical significance and unique charm. Beyond the facts, it’s the guide’s genuine passion for Sintra and warm, engaging manner that transform a standard tour into a memorable journey, creating a personal connection that leaves you with a deeper appreciation for this magical destination.
