Meeting place will be changed and you won’t know about it, therefore you will miss the excursion. We were asked to meet at another place unknown to us.
Leuke tour! A super guide Antonio
We took the half day tour and saw the many highlights of Lisbon. Our tour guide shared his extensive knowledge of the history and special places Lisbon has to offer. The views are beautiful and our tour guide brought us to the famous custard factory for a special treat. Our tour guide was awesome! We would highly recommend this tour!
Ricardo was a wonderful ambassador to novice travelers to Lisbon. He was polite, funny, intelligent, and a GREAT driver! In our two hour journey he showed us sites that gave us the introduction to Lisbon’s background we were lacking. At the conclusion he even sent us numerous notes on further exploration opportunities throughout this timeless city. His vehicle was clean, and although the roads were narrow & full of obstacles he navigated us around like the Portuguese explorers of old. 10/10 experience!
I loved the Tuk Tuk tour with Alexandra. Very familiar with your city, fun and cordial. I would recommend it to friends.
We had an incredible tuk-tuk tour of Lisbon and couldn’t recommend this company more highly. Ricardo was an outstanding guide, knowledgeable, engaging, and full of fascinating historical insights that really brought the city to life. His English was impeccable, and he kept everything running smoothly and at a great pace. Raquel was also wonderful, warm, friendly, and a pleasure to spend time with. The entire experience felt thoughtful and well organized from start to finish. They also made multiple stops along the way to take photos of our whole family, which we really appreciated. A fantastic way to explore Lisbon, highly recommend!
we had an amazing tour with José! he was was so friendly and the tour was very informative
Today we have a tuk -tuk experience with Ricardo. Definitely is the best way to see Lisbon's historic neighborhoods like Barrio Alto, Alfama, Graça, Chiado abd Belem. We recommended for the first sigth of the city, if you are short of time or want to avoid the city's steep. Ricardo provide us historical context, stories, and recommendations for bakeries, restaurants and to do things. Thanks for stop to pick up our pasteis de Belem, they are delicious. We have an exceptional guide and experience, 100 % recommend. Vicky, Steven, Gio and Marlene
Our Tuk Tuk Tour of Alfama with Pedro our guide was phenomenal. We are up there in age and Pedro made sure we were safe, taken care of and comfortable. His knowledge of the history of the Alfama was spot on. Answered questions, took pics. Very personable. Request him and I promise you won’t regret it!
I loved it! We had fun with the tour, the story and the conversations, and the guide, Mathieu, was super friendly and professional. I recommend
