About Tour Guide Leonor A.
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.

“Wonderful personalized tour”
Leonor did a custom tour for our family of 4 for 6hours. She is incredibly professional and knowledgeable. She is also a talented linguist - most of her tours are actually German yet her English is absolutely impeccable. Overall, we had tremendous fun exploring Lisbon with her and would recommend her to anyone.
