Great Tour and Excellent Guide - This tour was perfect. It picked us up at our hotel on time. Our guide was knowledgeable and shared as much information as we requested. We loved learning some of the history of the city and getting a better understanding of the different areas. At the conclusion we decided to get dropped off at a location he suggested to do some shopping at Portugal shops then walked to lunch at the Time Out Market (again the guides suggestion).

Perfect overview of Lisbon! - First of all, don’t listen to the negative comments about tuktuks in Lisbon. That does not apply to this boutique company. Our tour with Pedro was superb. He was a careful driver and there are seatbelts. Pedro was extremely knowledgeable and a warm and funny speaker. We got a wonderful overview of Lisbon. We got out to look at some Roman ruins and impressive views. Pedro customized part of the trip after talking with us. I highly recommend this company!

TukTuk with Friends - We were a party of 6 and decided to take 2 tuk tuks. Im glad we did since it made the tour much more comfortable
I was concerned we would not have been able to enjoy the sights with our friends separately but both Paulo and Miguel made it very seemless. They were extremely organized and accommodating. I wanted to go into the Santo Antonio Church and they planned it so we were able too upon its opening.

Brilliant Tuk Tuk tour of Lisbon - Going around the old town with Raphael, negotiating the narrow cobbled streets, he was very knowledgeable and made it interesting for us. he made some nice stops for the views and we made a lovely stop at Eduardino's for a small shot of cherry liquor followed by a visit to a nearby shop for some excellent pastel de natas.
His English was excellent and he was very personable.

We love Lisbon! - First I just want to start off by saying how amazing Helena is! She’s went above and beyond for my family and I. She gave us the best experience we could ask for. And she knows her history! I was very impressed! She took us into a few of her favorite places to try the pastries and the Ginjinha! Helena will make you feel at home. We hope to see her again soon!

Great Experiece!! - Great tour despite bad weather, however we were still able to see the city due to unique ability of the tuktuk to keep us dry all day. A wonderful way to see the city!!

Amazing tour and guide! - Our guide Miguel (Pinto) was amazing! As our first full day in Lisbon, we felt we got to experience the best views of the city and stop along the way. There’s some flexibility on where you want to go, which is great, and Miguel was super informative of the “gems” throughout the city. Highly recommend booking in the morning - ours was at 9am and it was perfect as there were less people out. By the time we wrapped is when the city activity was starting to pick up.
