“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.

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.

I`m a calm person and I pay attention to detail. Also i like to pass on knowledge and good mood and i have a degree from Turismo de Portugal specific to the Sintra area and 8 years of experience. Regarding the area where I work and where I have always lived, I know all the monuments and their stories. The Sintra area is not only palaces and gardens, it has beaches and other interests as well. I like to provide a good experience and captivate people in relation not only to the monuments but also to our gastronomy and local handicrafts. I think the experience is further enriched with a local guide who knows the stories and places that don't usually come in the tourist guides.

I was born and raised in Eric Eira, a coastal village located approximately 45 minutes from Lisbon. I pursued my academic studies in Audiovisual Communication in Lisbon and currently reside in the city. With a strong passion for sports and outdoor activities, I have a deep connection to the ocean. I practice bodyboarding regularly and enjoy spending time in nature, including multi-day trekking experiences. These interests have shaped my appreciation for both Lisbon’s coastal identity and its surrounding landscapes. I have been working as a professional tour guide since 2014. My career began following a transformative overland journey from England to Guinea-Bissau with my partner (now my wife) and close friends. This experience reinforced my vocation for communication, cultural exchange, and connecting with people from diverse backgrounds. Upon returning to Lisbon, I recognized the emerging potential of tuk-tuk tourism within the city. I saw this as an opportunity to combine my passion for Lisbon with a dynamic and people-oriented profession. Since then, I have been continuously active in the industry, providing personalized and engaging tour experiences.
