Knowing Lisbon in the footsteps of Fernando Cover, made our experience unforgettable. Our guide, Elena, in addition to very well mastering the curiosities of the life of Cover, gave us a lesson of Portuguese history and culture as we walked the streets. Super recommend!

We had an amazing tour with our tour guide Fabrizio Boscaglia, lecturer from Lisbon university and specialised in the city's most popular poet Fernando Pessoa, his life and history. I highly recommend to join his tour, he is smart, adorable, and even if you are not too enthusiastic with poetry, you will be after the tour with Fabrizio. I would book him again - anytime.

This was a very personalized tour which not only expanded my understanding of Fernando Pessoa, but gave a wonderful historical understanding of Lisbon of his time. Reading his writings later in English (learned in Durban) gave such a wonderful flavor that I would not have gotten as a non-lusaphone. it was great to end up at his favorite pub. This tour with its very knowledgeable and fluent English speaking academic, gave a depth to my visit that I otherwise would have never had. Thank you Fabrizio!

This tour was the highlight of our trip to Lisbon. Fabrizio our guide, an academic with a specialist interest in Pessoa, was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable he really brought Pessoa’s Lisbon existence to life for us. You don’t have to be a fan of Pessoa to enjoy this trip, but as a complete fan of Pessoa I found it fascinating. Thoroughly recommended.

with a small group of 10 people we visited Lisbon + Sintra 3 full days with the Guide Francesca, Italian girl with studies as a restorer, is very prepared and 3 days with her flew and we never tired of her explanations and her routes through the streets of Lisbon that we would never have known how to appreciate or discover for ourselves. Very kind and always ready to change itinerary or rest as needed.

A true literary class, knowing the intimacy of the great master Fernando Cover with Professor Fabrizio. That was exactly what I was looking for. I indicate with enthusiasm. Nice experience!
