The BEST tour of Lisbon - Jose was a fantastic tour guide! He took us places that cannot be seen on an average tour, nor with the average tour guide. We went to beautiful, hidden beaches, experienced paragliders soaring just above us, had freshly-made pastry and muscato with the locals, saw gorgeous monuments with views of all of Lisbon. Truly an extraordinary tour with a very giving guide. We highly recommend Jose.

Hidden spots of Lisbon! - On the day of our departure we had half day free so we were wondering what to do. We were lucky enough to come across this tour offered by Lisbononwheels.
The tour guide was excellent, very knowledgeable, patient, and friendly! The van was comfortable, with A/C and onboard Wi-fi, and there were bottles of water free of charge, in case that we got thirsty. The guide took us to see breathtaking spots in Arrabida, and to our minds Praia da Lagoa de Albufeira-Mar was the most impressive beach we haven seen so far in Portugal!
We took our time at each spot and could enjoy a hassle-free morning. It was the best way to say goodbye to Lisbon.
This is a tour I would recommend to anyone who wants to explore hidden parts of Lisbon and enjoy wonderful views! For couples, it is a must in Lisbon!
