A Fascinating and Insightful Tour of Belém and Jerónimos Monastery! - The Belém and Jerónimos Monastery Guided Small Group Walking Tour was an absolutely amazing experience! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and brought the history of Lisbon’s most iconic landmarks to life. From the moment we started the tour, it was clear that our guide was passionate about the rich history and cultural significance of Belém and its monuments. Visiting the stunning Jerónimos Monastery was a highlight – the architecture is breathtaking, and our guide shared fascinating insights about its history and the famous explorers associated with the site. The stories behind the monastery and nearby attractions, including the Belém Tower and Monument to the Discoveries, made the whole experience much more meaningful. The small group size made the tour feel personal and allowed for a more interactive experience. We had plenty of time to ask questions, and our guide’s enthusiasm made the entire tour enjoyable and educational. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Lisbon – it’s a great way to explore the historical heart of the city with an expert guide who can provide context that you won’t get from just visiting the sites on your own.

Amazing tour! Tour guide Andriy was superb! - Excellent! Andriy was our guide. What a clever young man and so knowledgeable. This is our first ever visit to Portugal and it was our first full day! The tour was superb ! He was so thoughtful- even telling us to watch our step, incase of trip hazards and keeping us safe when crossing roads. He knew the answer to everything we asked and being in a small group was super and the other 6 people were very sweet and we chatted away over a coffee and were given a traditional custard tart- which was all part of the experience. He stopped and took pics of all of us whenever we wanted and he knows how to take a great photo too! Thoroughly recommend this tour and we feel as if we know a great many things now about Portugal, Lisbon and even European and World History having spent 3 hours with Andriy! Brilliant job! Thank you! We will really remember it!

Exceptional small group tour - Absolutely wonderful tour with Andriy of Lisbon Tours. We received clear communication about how to purchase tickets to the monastery. He was prompt on the date of the tour. He was pleasant, professional and very knowledgeable about Portuguese history. Having a small group made this experience much more enjoyable. It was easy to get into and move around the monastery. We highly recommend this tour.

Unforgettable experience seeing Duoro Valley! - Our guide Rita was fantastic, so knowledgeable but also so very fun. She was truly a fantastic guide and can't imagine how it would have been with someone else. Her humor and enthusiasm encouraged the group to be very personable to one another as well, so throughout the day everyone was getting to know one another, making for an unforgettable experience. We loved that they partnered with smaller, family-owned wineries of the area and boat ride was gorgeous.
