Time well spent! - This was the BEST layover tour. My host, Elisabete was prompt and ready to go! Not only is she a great historian, but a friendly and considerate tour guide as well. She knew which spots to go to first so we avoided traffic, and found all the perfect photo-worthy locations. As a solo traveler, I felt safe and like I was traveling with a friend. Would strongly recommend!

Great Lisbon tour on a cold, rainy day. - Stopping and eating at a quaint bakery that all of the "locals" love. Elizabeth suggested two wonderful Portugues delicacies to taste. She gave me a great tour inspite of it being a cold, rainy day. Having majored in History at University, she provided me with a great education about Lisbon and Portugal!

Do it you won’t regret it! - Amazing tour! Elisabete is really good at what she does! We had an amazing time visiting iconic places in Portugal and it was very convenient the drive to and from the airport in time for our connecting flight. I have a baby with me and the van fit all five of us with a baby car seat too! No regrets!

Essential Tour of Lisbon - Our tour was amazing! Elisabete, imparted a great deal of history and context as we walked through neighborhoods and passed significant buildings. Lisbon is a beautiful city. She made time for us to drive from one side to the other, explaining significant events that shaped the city as we find it presently. We saw so much and learned so much, and truly enjoyed all that she was able to show us. Left us wanting more of Lisbon in the BEST way! Honestly, the best tour I’ve ever taken. All others pale in comparison.

Best Layover Tour Ever! - Our guide, Alex, picked us up promptly at the airport and brought us to all of the highlights and back to the airport with enough time to get back through security and freshen up for our next flight. He was extremely knowledgeable about the city, the history and the culture. The driving in Libson was crazy and very narrow and he was an excellent and safe driver.
