Great for a first get to know Lisbon - Many thanks to Sara, who had given us a great first impression of Lisbon and life here in the 3.5 hours. The tour took us to many sights in the old town area, to beautiful viewpoints, through winding streets and was peppered with reports of historical events as well as the everyday lives of the inhabitants that we would not have gotten without this tour. We were also convinced by their tips on further activities, on refreshments and the little “Versucherle”. We can recommend the tour to anyone who likes to explore a city on foot in a small group.

Highly recommended - I recommend the German-speaking tour gladly. The 3 hours (with break) passed like in flight, and even the teenager thought it was great. Pedro answers every question and tells a varied and easily understandable story. Last but not least, the value for money fits when I compare with other European metropolises.

Grand tour of Lisbon - We had, together with two other very nice couples, a super nice tour of Lisbon with our guide Pedro from WALK 'N' ROLL. The tour was informative and entertaining and that was not only due to the great city and the beautiful (albeit very warm) weather, but especially to Pedro, who is just very nice, open and warm and showed us his city with a lot of enthusiasm and passion, all in perfect German. There were tips and recommendations for the rest of the time on your own in Lisbon and the surrounding area. We will definitely visit the city again, one day was far too short, yet thanks to Pedro we got a great overview. Thank you for the nice day, we recommend WALK 'N' ROLL 100% and are already looking forward to the next tour with you.

An unforgettable tour of Lisbon's historic centre! - The 3.5 hour guided tour with Melina was simply fantastic. She led us with a lot of passion and deep knowledge through the winding streets and impressive squares of the city. Her narrative style brought Lisbon's history to life, and she always had exciting anecdotes. Her sense of the city's best vantage points and hidden gems was particularly impressive. She also took time to answer individual questions and make personal recommendations. The tour was perfectly organized, informative and relaxed at the same time – just the right mix! If you want to discover Lisbon in an authentic and fun way, you should not miss this guided tour with Melina. Highly recommended!
