Sympathy, historicity and professionalism - First time ever in Lisbon; my girlfriend and I were immediately immersed in the history and atmosphere of the capital and the context in which we found ourselves thanks to our guide Federico, really knowledgeable about all the historical, religious and political events of the last thousand years. He knew how to season every speech with many anecdotes and conveying the passion for what he does, always with sympathy and lightness! Much appreciated also the break in a nearby bakery with a lot of pastel de nata offered to us: really very nice! Only side notes: the audio receiver did not always go during the visit and, in the most crowded spaces, you had to stand close enough to the guide to hear well (but nothing disabling), and I suggest possibly some image support of paintings - historical figures objects of explanations to be able to increase even more appeal from the public. Anyway, compliments to Federico, I would choose him again instantly. Bravo!

Sightseeing and history rolled into one - Frederico puts his heart and soul into his work and we could tell that from how detailed his explanations of everything we saw on this tour were. It was a treat to hear him delve into the history of Portugal and the monuments we saw. Such a unique experience. Loved it.
