Riu was an excellent tour guide. The pace was just right! He provided many interesting and historical information about the city of Lisbon and the many neighborhoods. I enjoyed the stops along the way and the opportunity to learn about Portugal’s history. I highly recommend him as a tour guide!

Rui was our wonderful private tour guide! Highly recommend his tour. We are a family of 4 from Boston with 2 boys 18 and 20 years old. Rui was full of knowledge, went at a pace that worked for us even in 95 degree heat. He answered our questions thoroughly and made us feel that every question we asked was important. Highly recommend!

Carolyn_P, Sep 2026
Our guide Rui was fantastic. Very knowledgeable, talked in conversational style, guiding us through Lisbon history and shared lots of fun facts. The tour included a 15 minute break and a custard tart snack. Highly recommend this tour.

Jeff_T, Sep 2026
While Rui was very knowledgeable, at times was very hard to hear him and this was a small group tour. He took a lot of care getting us around the city, ensuring we crossed all roads safely and pointed out any issues with footpaths. Good orientation tour.

Sophisticated tour of Lisbon’s Baixa

Renato_d, Sep 2026
Excellent tour of the Chiado and Baixa area. The historical lens adopted by Rui was a socio-economic one. He saw various historic architectural structures and Rui connected them to the geography and culture of the Lisboetas. We left the tour with a greater understanding of the impact of the age of exploration in Lisbon’s finances and the development of the various buildings post earthquake.

Boring, would not recommend.

Katherine_D, Sep 2026
Unfortunately not a tour I would recommend. Guide was friendly and professional but quite dull, no humor whatsoever, also not native to Portugal. It was boring, and I could have easily learned the few bullet points he made about each stop with a superficial google search. I’d prefer a tour with a guide who was a native to the area, had a lively and conversational personality, and extensively knowledgeable of the stops.

Wonderful walking tour!

Had the best time! Learned so much about this gorgeous city.

Mikayla_W, Mar 2026
I learned so much! The history plays such a large role in appreciating the statues and buildings in Lisbon. They are cool on their own, but the context made everything much cooler. Rui was even keeled and highly knowledgeable. He cares about your experience and has great recommendations on restaurants etc. He gave consistent opportunities for questions and bathroom stops. Definitely wear good shoes. The tour had very little uphill walking. About 3 hours long, even with the elevator being closed.

Fantastic Tour Guide

Lisbon old town tour.

Shweta_W, Dec 2025
We did this tour with Andre just before Christmas 2025. Andre is very knowledgeable and he gave us detailed information about all the points of interest that we visited in old town of Lisbon. We never felt that we were rushed at any time. We even had time to stop for a coffee and pastel de nata on our tour. He answered all our questions patiently. Highly recommended.

Historic Lisbon

Judy_B, Nov 2025
Rui was a great guide. He communicated with us when we booked and also before our tour. It was a rainy day in Lisbon so we were the only ones on the tour. Our guide sought to provide us with the real history of Lisbon. We walk up and down Lisbon enjoying the churches, historical buildings and sites. We visited the oldest bookstore in the world and sampled wonderful custards. Time well spent.

Alex was our guide and could not do enough for us to learn as much as we could about the Pena Palace and other sights we saw that day! Alex was knowledgeable, had a great sense of humor, and did everything he could to keep us comfortable in transit.

Andriy did a great job and is extremely knowledgeable of all the history of the area. We were slightly slowed by the pouring down rain but all in the group still learned so much of the history and really enjoyed the tour.
