What a perfect way to experience a mystical, magical afternoon in one of the most beautiful cities in the world! The storytelling flow was excellent, as were the directions. I'm actually looking forward to doing it again, I can't get enough of this experience.

What a perfect way to spend a sunny day in Lisbon! Everything about the tour was spot on. Riding along the river, learning about the history of the city, all guided by an engaging storyteller. And the directions, wow! It makes you feel so well taken care of. Cannot recommend enough.

What a cool experience! Me and my friend did the tour on a Friday afternoon using scooters. Even though I know Lisbon already a bit, I learned a lot and it was most of all just a very fun way to explore the city! Oh and I loved that it ends in Belem, so you can explore there as well. We found a very cute restaurant there to have some food after the tour. And Pasteis, of course ;) PS: Its amazing how the GPS knows where you are and the voice will always tell you (please turn right here at the crossing after the read sign etc." - VERY accurate!)

I absolutely loved the bike tour to Belém and can say I’ve discovered my new favorite way to explore a city! It's the perfect blend of flexibility and immersion. Going at my own pace made it easier for me to actually learn a lot about Lisbon's rich history and culture! The storytelling was vivid and engaging, I especially loved the different voices that brought the city's stories to life. An experience I’d highly recommend to anyone visiting Lisbon!
