Full description
See the sights of Lisbon that interest you most on a full-day private tour with an itinerary that’s designed just for you! There’s no need to rush around on this special tour, as you’ll have time to take in the top artistic and historical attractions of the city. Marvel at historical landmarks such as São Jorge Castle and Lisbon´s Cathedral. Travel from the Phoenician civilization, up to the Roman city of Olissippo. Visit Alfama, the city’s oldest sector, and see Moorish influences everywhere. Take a stroll off the typical tourist route, through the city’s traditional neighborhoods and get a real feeling of what Alfacinhas (Lisbon natives) do and where they go in their lovely city. During the day you’ll also have the opportunity to taste some of Portugal's traditional pastries. Although the tour is meant to cover a full day the duration can be shorter to suit your schedule.

Richard was amazingly tireless in sharing his knowledge of his Portuguese culture and walking us up and down through all the must sees. All came together as he started off With a rich history of how the square all Lisbon came to be. Great experience! thank you Richard and all the best to your family. Rick and Laarni.

We booked this tour well in advance and there was excellent email communication with the tour director Joao. Ricardo picked us up on time at the cruiseport as arranged and he had customised a tour specific to both my wife and my interests (even visiting a garden the day before to ensure it was suitable etc.). He spoke great English, was a competent driver and even went with us to buy coffee and enter a museum to make sure we got exactly what we required. His knowledge of Portugal and Lisbon history is excellent and his explaination of events was clear and well understood. We walked through the narrow alleyways of Lisbon and Ricardo was able to utilise tourism parking spots (to save us walking back up a steep hill) and skip the lines, all of which we could definitely not do on our own. This is a great personalised private tour, very good value for money and well run - Thanks Ricardo
