Tour Lisbon and surroundings - Visiting Belém with Daniele as a guide was a real pleasure: his preparation and sympathy made each stage interesting and fascinating. Of course, the famous Pastéis de Belém could not be missed: a real taste of Lisbon tradition that made the experience unforgettable.
In the afternoon we then visited Alfama which is already magical, but with our guide Rachele was even more so: competent, engaging and with a smile that makes everything special! The visit could only end with a toast with the typical Ginjinha, the authentic flavor of Lisbon. Thanks also to our guide Sara who in addition to giving us information and curiosity transmitted strong emotions: she took us to Nazaré which enchanted us with its gigantic and spectacular waves and then accompanied us to Fatima the spiritual heart of Portugal, a destination of pilgrimages! Thank you all for this unforgettable experience!!! Highly recommended tours!!! 🔝

Good experience - We did the free tour of the center and we felt so good that we chose to do with them Alfama and Belém. Very good as guides Elisa and Daniele, the latter really histrionic. Great experience, I recommend it.

Choose Italian Tour lisbon if you want to know it! - Cristina accompanied us on the free tour of lisbon and was very stimulating and always ready to answer our questions without ever getting tired despite the remarkable temperatures of the afternoon! In the morning we also saw the belem area but the Tower was under renovation and the tour included only the church not the monastery so I preferred the free tour but it is personal.
So we recommend it!

Must-see area. - With Daniele we moved from Baixa to Alfama with explanations on churches, historical events and saints. The oldest and most alive part in these days of the feast of saints! All told with sympathy and details, even about the mythical fado.

Visit of alfam - With the helpful and knowledgeable guide of Rachele, we did our tour of the most ancient area of Lisbon. Although not as monumental as Belém, we really enjoyed our visit.
