Great guide/tour - Great pacing, good information with jokes to keep it fun. Just the right length with proper amount of time (10-15min) to explore on our own at some stops.

Good value for $ - I appreciated the extensive and entertaining history of Portugal and Lisbon -- I've been on tours before where the guide was unable to answer questions that weren't covered in his usual spiel, and that was not the case here. This was a good value for $.

Fun & historical! - We had a wonderful three hours with our guide Pedro, who was kind enough to step in as Martin, our assigned guide was sick. Pedro was extremely knowledgeable about Portuguese history and we learned so much. We did walk 11,000 steps but Pedro saved us by taking us up a few elevators and escalators. We got to see several parts of the city and get a feel for different neighborhoods and we also had cod cake and Verde wine, as well as delicious pastel de nata (famous egg custard tart). The value of this tour for your $ is incredible! We had already been in Lisbon two days & got so much out of this tour, even though we went back to a few places. This tour would be even more amazing on day one so that you can get an idea of what places you want to spend more time in, but it’s also wonderful as a standalone. My favorite part was stopping at incredible views high up in the city. I cannot recommend this tour enough!

easy walk - Excellent walk with a mix of flat streets, stone steps, and hidden elevators. One pastry, cod cake, and taste of green wine were included (and delicious)!

A lovely morning with Maria - Maria was fabulous and we had a great morning exploring Lisbon. We covered an incredible amount of territory in a relatively short time and learnt a lot about Lisbon and Portugal's history. Maria also showed us how to use the elevators/escalators dotted around the place to avoid trekking up so many hills which was extremely helpful. Would highly recommend.
