“Lisbon by Night”
It was an excellent way to see the other side of Lisbon. When the sun goes down and the city lights are up, Lisbon takes on a different charm. And there was no better way to see it than with an excellent guide like Duarte. He took us to a Fado performance which turned out to be more fun than I expected. And then Duarte took us to walk and drive around town and see sights that we never would have discovered on our own. Thank you, Duarte! It was truly one unforgettable evening. Lisbon is lucky to have you!

Dear Kate, More than your words, I want to thank you and your friends for the wonderful evening we spent together. Believe me, it was a great pleasure to have met you, and for me to have had the opportunity to show you a little of my city... now... Our city. I hope we meet again as soon as possible. Once again... Many thanks to all of you

“A day with Duarte”
We visited Sintra and the west coast from Azenhas do Mar to Cascais, then back to Lisbon. Duarte is a wonderful guide, very knowledgeable and proud of the Portuguese heritage. Flexible too, willing to make changes to the itenerary to suit our interests. Many sites in Portugal that we would not have seen if not for this tour. Well worth the money.
