Évora Private Half-Day Walking Tour
This city isn’t where my story started, but it’s definitely where I found my place. I didn’t grow up here, but there’s no question that I belong. I studied here, yet the real lessons went far beyond the classroom. Think of this tour as a laid-back conversation with a friend, sharing Évora’s hidden stories and quirks. Just an easy, genuine walk through a city that’s far more than a picture-perfect backdrop; it’s part of me. Ready to see Évora from my perspective?

“Amazing overview of key sites and history on Lisbon”
Raquel was absolutely amazing and I highly recommend her for tours! She arrived early and even changed our tour plans per our request at the very last second. She was so kind, knowledgeable, and just a wonderful person in general. She shows her love for her country with passion and truly loves guiding you through and explaining all the beautiful sites. When we return to Portugal she will definitely be who my family and I contact to connect with regarding tours, recommendations on everything else.. Jeff R.

I have always felt a deep connection to my country’s nature and history. I studied Biology and traveled across Portugal working in Nature Conservation, uncovering the breathtaking landscapes and hidden gems that make this land so special. More than just a guide, I am passionate about sharing the true soul of Portugal with those who visit us. Our history, our cuisine, and above all, our wine tell the story of an ancient country rich in tradition and culture. To me, there’s nothing better than exploring centuries-old cellars, tasting delicious wines, and diving into the stories that each bottle holds. Join me on an authentic and unforgettable journey through Portugal. From Lisbon’s historic streets to untouched natural landscapes, from prestigious wine cellars to hidden gastronomic treasures, every experience will be a true feast for the senses. Portugal awaits you. Are you ready for this adventure?
