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.

“Great Tour and Great Guide”
This was an exceptional experience. Leonor was a fabulous guide. Her knowledge of Lisbon and Sintra was extensive. She was great at reading the group and what we could physically do as it's an extensive walking tour. This tour was well worth the money. Thank you Leonor for a great day in Sintra!!!

“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.
