A really good way to see Lisbon, at a good pace but very much tailored to our needs. Tiago was the perfect guide, extremely knowledgeable with an impressive command of English!

We had a wonderful tour of the old town, Alfama, and a historic briefing with Paulo, a wonderful guide who had great knowledge of the city and it's history.
We had an unforgettable time with Christina, our guide, who is very cheerful and helped us understand the history of the places we visited very well. We will return and recommend this exceptional and endearing guide to all our acquaintances.
Cristina is excellent. She is kind, cultured, and passionate about her profession. She adapts to your situation and is attentive. She has very good driving skills despite the rather terrible streets of Lisbon, especially in the old part of the city. Smiling and warm, I highly recommend her.
