walking Lisbon's history - we took a walking tour in Italian with Fabien. The company changed the starting time of the tour and it was no longer suitable for us, so our guide re arranged it! Fabien was punctual at the meeting place, gave clear instructions on how to get there, thorough and timely answers to all our questions. The tour pace was ok , the itinerary was interesting, the guide was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the city. He gave us suggestions for the rest of our stay. I definitely recommend, and thank you Fabien!!

Amazing experience - Met in the square which was easy to locate. Our Guide Tomàs was really passionate and very informative about the history. It was refreshing to hear about all the historical influences. We had such a laugh too...and got great advice regarding the best bits of Lisbon.

Good cheap and fun! - The points visited on our tour are essential to understand the history of the Lisbon Formation. In addition, the Guide, Artur, is very friendly and deeply familiar with the history of the city bringing important facts and curiosities that help us understand the context of the various events. Highlighting that by being "free" there is nothing left to desire.

Do This Tour First - Toby was an excellent guide not only providing concise information about the history of Lisbon, but very practical information about how to get around the city and how to avoid some of the steep uphill climbs (who knew about the public elevators or escalators!). Recommend doing this tour early in your Lisbon stay because you will rely on the information you receive throughout your stay. If you are luck, you will have Toby as your guide.
