Revelation Tour was Excellent

Bill_B, Aug 2025
Philippa was incredible. So knowledgeable, loves her city and its history which clearly comes across. She was also very attentive to her guests, sharing insights relevant to our interests. Some elevation, but very manageable. Highly recommended.

Great Start to Learning About Lisbon

Liz_H, Oct 2024
Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and personable. The pacing was just right, and we visited notable places of interest.

Good city overview

Taylor_B, Jul 2024
Good way to get an overview of the city. Definitely bring water and your walking shoes and you’re good to go, the tour covers a lot of ground. My tour guide was great, very knowledgeable, explained everything well, was very open to questions and gave recommendations. It started and finished early enough that if you wanted to go back to something or explore something else you still have a good amount of time in your day to do so.

Great historical facts !

Carole_B, Jun 2024
Alex was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and professional. Loved all the historical facts that tied it all together.

Guide didn’t show up

PILARROSARIO_V, May 2024
I went to Porto’s University as instructed on the ticket. However, the guide never showed up. I wasted the opportunity to know more about the city.

Making Your Part Of A Story To Tell

Richard_C, May 2024
To see anything well we must be near it, walk it and even touch it to experience it well. Our guide’s stories brought to life most of what builders, families and lifestyles put into Lisboa. There’s many steps to walk and a hill or two to reach these spots - yet I urge you to be there for the outcomes you’ll later be glad of.

Worth booking
