About Tour Guide Gonçalo C.
I have been a tour guide for 7 years, working for some of the biggest tour operators in Lisbon. I have started from zero, and during these years, exploring, studying and showing others from north to south our paradise, brought me the experience to become a full time private guide.
Studying history for the past 6 years while working as a tour guide has provided me with extensive knowledge of Portugal, and piqued my interest in learning about different cultures and traditions which makes me be always looking for unique, off the beaten track experiences. I strive to develope tours all over the country at the most beautiful and unique sites, providing local and authentic experiences for my customers.
My job as I like to describe, it's give you the perfect day, tailor made to suit your own preferences, at the region or regions that you are interesting to visit in our small paradise.

“A true professional”
We were delighted to spend a day with Gonçalo in Lisboa. He picked us up promptly at our hotel as arranged and we spent the entire day learning and living in this great city. We had hit some of the more typical highlights on a different tour with a different guide a few days earlier, so Gonçalo was able to tailor our itinerary on-the-fly to give us more in-depth info and help us experience his city more fully. He paced our activities well and eagerly answered questions. We loved his recommendation for a post-tour neighborhood adventure at the local saint's festival. This was obviously not a "canned" presentation and he was always energetic with great concern for our comfort and enjoyment. He radiates love for and pride in Lisboa. We had an incredible time and can not recommend him enough. 10 stars!
