"We, two German couples, had a 3 hours tour with Pedro and enjoyed it very much. Pedro has a deep knowledge of the history of Lisbon. We visited Alfama, Downtown and Bairro Alto including several lovely places. Despite the quantity of information we received it was never boring. Pedro is full of humour and very likable."
"Our family chose the ‘City Explorer: Obidos, Batalha, Alcobaça & Nazaré’ day trip and had a wonderful time visiting multiple sites with Stasea. All locations were extremely diverse and offered a little bit of everything. I highly recommend doing a guided tour to these locations as they are far distances from Lisboa. Stasea was extremely knowledgeable of the history, patient, kind, and also a great driver. The ages of our group ranged from 7-65 years old and everyone had a good time! I highly recommend choosing this tour if you have additional days in Lisboa and want to see different areas of the country. "
"Henrique has a true passion for sharing his love of Lisbon and Portugese history and culture. He was quite accommodating when our plans changed and he tailored our tour to include our interests. A terrific, knowledgeable guide. We recommend him, 125%! "

"Isobel really brought Lisbon’s colourful past to life with fascinating information about the areas we visited and wonderful stories about the history of a city which she is clearly passionate about. We were very lucky to have Isobel as our guide and would highly recommend her.

"Rui is a great tour guide, very personable and knowledgeable. We had such fun touring Sintra and Cascais with him and very much appreciated his suggestions and fun facts about the places we visited. I highly recommend Rui for your tour!"
"Ana was extremely knowledgeable and explained the history very well. We could feel her emotions as she described the revolution. She also gave us great tips for getting around Lisbon."
"Angelo was an amazing guide. He catered our tour to experience the history of Lisbon along with stops at specialty stores, tastings of local foods and wandering through many neighborhoods. He opened our eyes to Portugal’s history: the dictatorship, how they avoided a civil war, the return of the Portuguese from Africa, how the earthquake changed Portugal and the brilliant rebuilding of the city. He was so personable and fun to spend the morning with. The absolute best guide! "
"My husband and I enjoyed a very informative walking tour with Peter. He conveyed his knowledge of the history of Lisbon very well, and carried a file of illustrations which helped us to see how various areas appeared in the past. A stop to try a local pastry and coffee was included, and Peter made sure that we were safe and comfortable throughout the tour. We also visited a local ceramic workshop where we witnessed the techniques used to paint designs onto the products. Some lovely pieces were available to view/purchase.
We both highly recommend this tour, and Peter as your guide. We would not hesitate to join one of his tours in future."
"Thank you João for sharing your city and your knowledge with us. If anyone is looking to learn about the city, the country, its people, its culture, João is your guy. Don’t hesitate! Book!!!"
"Isabel provided our family with a wonderful tour of Lisbon. Even though it rained a little, we were able to cover almost the whole city. We learned so much about the city and it's history in such a short period of time. It would have taken us weeks on our own to cover so much. Isabel was great with the questions from our daughters.
Everyone enjoyed the time spent."
