“Great Half-Day Tour in Lisbon”
We took a half day Lisbon tour with Joao on Sept 1 2026. Excellent guide!! From the moment we met he made us feel very comfortable. He showed us many sites throughout the city and gave us some great suggestions for where to eat some local food. His knowledge of Lisbon and Portugal’s history made for a wonderful day. Thank you so much Joao!! Mike, Roberta and Jason

“Quick 4 hour tour”
Joao was great at keeping me informed. At last minute, he had to send a substitute guide, Patrick, so our review is about Patrick. Patrick was wonderful, informative about history, the city culture and an excellent driver. Took us for pastries and talked us through at the Discoverers monument. Highly recommend him.

Ines P.
Hi! My name is Ines and I would be thrilled to be your guide in the Lisbon area. I studied history of art, holding both a degree and a masters, and have 10 years of experience as a tour guide. I am passionate about art, architecture, history and culture. Whereas you want to enjoy the architecture highlights and hidden gems of the Lisbon area; explore the art scene being or contemporary art or Portugal’s unique crafts; or even combine history, art and indulging in gastronomy and wine tasting I am more than welcome to cater to your preferences. I am also a mother of two young children, plus I have worked for more than 12 years as a museum and heritage educator so, I am very happy to create tours or adapt them to families travelling with children of all ages.

Diogo C.
Hello, I’m Diogo — a private Lisbon tour guide, sommelier, and host, with a background in hospitality and Portuguese culture. I’ve worked for many years in the hospitality world in Portugal and London, including as a sommelier, and I studied the WSET Level 3 in Wines in London. I’m also the co-founder of a Portuguese wine brand in Alcácer do Sal, which gives me a strong connection to local producers and the countryside beyond the cities. While wine is an important part of my background, my tours are not limited to food and wine. I design private, tailor-made tours from Lisbon that can focus on culture, history, landscapes, architecture, and everyday local life, or combine these elements naturally with wine and gastronomy when it makes sense. I work exclusively with private guests and small groups, creating experiences at a relaxed pace and shaped around each guest’s interests. Whether you’re visiting Portugal for the first time or returning to explore more deeply, my goal is to offer an authentic, personal perspective rather than a standard sightseeing tour. I look forward to welcoming you and helping you experience Portugal in a genuine, unhurried way.

I’m a Danish guide based in Lisbon, where I’ve been living since the summer of 2024. I love traveling, exploring the Lisbon area, and sharing the places, flavors, and stories that make this region special. My tours are made in either English, Danish or Norwegian in Lisbon, Cascais and Almada. I design guided experiences that combine culture, food, coastal walks, and local life. With interests ranging from sport and culture to relaxed social moments and great experiences, my tours are all about enjoying Portugal in an authentic and easy-going way.
