Awesome walking tour with Ricardo - I had an amazing time om a walking tour of Lisbon with Ricardo! He knew the city inside out and shared fascinating stories that made the history come alive. The tour was well-paced, and Ricardo made sure we saw a lot without feeling rushed. A stand-up moment was when he showed me where to get the best pasties de nata - they were delicious! Ricardo also took me to some stunning viewpoints, which were perfect for capturing the beauty if Lisbon. If you want a fun and informative tour, Ricardo is your guy. Highly recommend!

The Alfama.., the steps and stairs are all uphill😊 - This was a great walking tour. We were only three to start with and were joined mid tour by a fun group of ballroom dancers. Our young guide was exuberant and kept a good pace as we toured the Alfama. Be sure to try the nearby coffee shop before or after your walk.

Best walking tour in Lisbon - Barbara Linda was our guide. We learned so much and made it so entertaining. Vox City is the tour company with various options (from electric bikes to side by side scooters and walking tour). The latter was the best for us and our guide was so knowledgeable and lots of fun. We would recommend her to anyone.

Upstairs downstairs in Lisbon - Giavannia is one of the best walking tour guides I ever had! Her knowledge is impressive and her delivery comes with feeling about the subject. I particularly like the historical perspective she emphasizes during her tour. We were only three taking the tour which made it all the more enjoyable. Lisbon is all hills and stairs, which seem as though they only go up, but she insured that we kept a comfortable pace. Be sure to ask about the wonderful cafe/bakery just around the corner.
