He was also very flexible with our timing and what/where we wanted to go. We are so glad to have started our time in Lisbon with John F — we have a greater appreciation of the area and the culture, provided first had by a first class guide and company.

5.00Had a few foreign friends coming over to Lisbon and I wanted to show them the sights. Since I didn’t prepare anything I ended up booking this tour based on the great reviews and I was surely impressed. Even I, being from Lisbon and having this experience that typically is for tourists, learnt stuff about the landmarks that I didn’t know. The weather was amazing, the fact that it was a private tour was great because it allowed us to fire questions as we please and all my friends are coming back in a few months. Definitely recommend.
Memorable exploration of Lisboa. Obrigada!

5.00This walking tour was simply outstanding! Our guide, Miguel, had a depth of knowledge and infectious enthusiasm for the local culture making every moment memorable and fun! The private tour format ensured a personalized experience, with Miguel leading us to hidden gems and local favourites we wouldn't have discovered on our own. As a seasoned local guide, his insights enriched the tour, making it truly exceptional. If you want an authentic exploration of this city, this tour is a must!

5.00This has probably been one of the best walking tours we’ve ever done with my family. Our guide Claudia was super professional and had extense knowledge of the city and all the spots we visited. Great attitude and also super friendly. The experience was full of locations that we would have not been able to find on our own and that defintely made it worth it. Logistics were great and had no issues whatsoever even considering that my family group is big (12) Big thanks to Clauda and Picta Travel team see you soon!
5 star experience!!
