We had a wonderful day with Carolina exploring Setubal's historic centre and visiting the Arrabida region. Carolina is a lovely, warm and engaging person, with a lot of knowledge to share. She loves her home town of Setubal, and we came to appreciate it at a much deeper level too, understanding it's history and culture over the years. Our tour was personalised for us, which was perfect, and we highly recommend Carolina as a personal guide of this area. It was great to discover the richness of Portuguese life and the beauty of Arrabida from someone so informative and lots of fun to be with. Thank you Carolina!

I just LOVED everything about my time with Carolina! She's totally professional and knowledgeable, but so uniquely wonderful as a guide. History and beauty come alive with her spoken words and vibrant energy. She adores Portugal, and her area of Portugal is something she is so proud of, and devoted to. We saw amazing sights, the ocean and mountains, several towns, and everything was so beautiful. I see why she stays in the area. The good news is she offers CUSTOM tours to people, as well as what is listed on her website. Just Google Carolina Tours, you will be happy you did. I was sad to part ways, as the tour concluded. She's a treasure. Look to book your tour with her to experience the best of Portugal!👍

We had a great day with Carolina getting to know more about the Setubal area. Markets, castles, painted tiles and local wines. We even saw dolphins! She’s full of information and enthusiasm. Thoroughly recommended.

What a great day discovering Portugal history and culture with Carolina! We learned so much about the beautiful coastline of the Arrabida mountains, Setúbal, Sesimbra and more! Carolina was super accommodating to our needs, and making changes to our schedule. Her comfortable A/C van was perfect on a very hot day.

Carolina put together a custom tour for us. We had limited time, but she managed to make it work for our group of four. It was awesome! Just the right amount of history, culture, and local knowledge. She clearly loves what she does and knows how to read people — what they need, when to share their history, and when to let them wander and take in what they are seeing. She makes history very interesting and clearly applies what she's learned as a certified interpretive tour guide. Thanks for the fantastic tour, we'll be back!

Hiring Carolina for a tour of Setúbal was one of the best decisions I made during my trip to Portugal. As a solo traveler, having her as my guide felt like having a knowledgeable local friend show me around their hometown. Carolina picked me up, crafted an incredible itinerary, and shared Portugal’s beauty and culture through the lens of a true insider. Her warmth and friendliness made the experience so enjoyable, and I quickly felt like I wasn’t just on a tour but spending the day with someone I’d known for years. She’s highly educated, engaging, and clearly passionate about what she does. Every stop felt meaningful, every story she shared added depth, and her enthusiasm was infectious. By the end of the day, I not only felt like I’d seen Setúbal in the best possible way but had also gained a new friend. If you’re looking for an authentic, fun, and thoughtfully curated experience, hiring Carolina is an absolute must. Thank you, Carolina, for making my trip so special!

We had the good fortune to find Carolina on a tour platform for a day trip to Setubal today. Traveling with Carolina feels like a day spent with a good friend. We enjoyed all of the stops. The businesses on the tour know Carolina, and they make sure you are well taken care of. I 100%+ recommend booking your tour with Carolina! I hope to return to Portugal one day and meet up with our new friend for another tour.
