Excellent walking tour - Great walking tour, with a focus on the history and culture of Lisbon. Bruno was excellent, he saved time for a Ginjinha stop, showed us tricks for the hills and the best views, and of course answered all of our questions. A great way to start your trip and orient yourself to the sites! Thank you!

Asha was an incredible guide - This walking tour was fantastic overall, but especially for two reasons: 1. An interesting, but relatively flat (for Lisbon!) route 2. The timeline of the history shared. Asha managed to weave the history of Lisbon into the route in chronological order, from its origins through to present day. Very impressive and informative! Thank you as well for the tips shared related to Lisbon, thoroughly helpful and enjoyable. Great job Asha!

Recommended tour - Our Guide Arthur has exhaustively told us the story of Lisbon, dwelling on both historical details and curiosities. He accompanied us through the various neighborhoods, always telling us some anecdotes that only those who have lived for some time in Lisbon know. We stayed in the best (according to the Lisbonese) Pastel de Nata factory where we could follow the baking steps and then have a tasting. Tour recommended for all those who arrive in Lisbon and want to know its secrets.

Best way to know the city. - The guide was very knowledgeable about the history of every visited place. More than sightseeing, we went to the past and had a contextualized explanation of everything. At the same time the guide was very friendly and made the tour very enjoyable.

Amazing - Tomas was our guide yesterday and he was terrific. He is friendly, knowledgeable and personable. His love for his city was very evident as he shared Lisbon's history. It was a very hot and sweaty afternoon, but we learned and enjoyed him so much that we braved the heat to spend three hours with him. He deserves 10 stars ( out of 5!!!! )

Historic and unforgettable experience in Lisbon! - Arthur was a fantastic guide! With his passion for history and excellent didactics, he explained the history of Lisbon in a very clear, engaging and fun way. It was an amazing cultural tour of Lisbon, where I learned a lot from Arthur in every place we visited. In addition to providing a good understanding of the entire historical context, it led us to try the famous cream cake, which made the experience even more enriching and special. Super recommend the tour, it is the best way to know Lisbon!
