Wonderful day in Lisbon thanks to Alex! - We did the layover tour with Alex and could not have asked for a better experience! The tour was wonderful, we were able to see so much, and Alex was very knowledgeable in Portuguese culture and history.

Spectacular Lisbon Tour! - This was a great way to spend an eight hour layover we had when flying from Athens to home. Alex picked us up at the airport and drove us around Lisbon showing us a number or places with incredible views and different locations around the city. His knowledge of Lisbon and the history was just amazing and added to our overall experience.! Alex took us to so many different places during our short time and also took us to the bakery that had the original custard tarts, so yummy! Alex made sure to get us back to the airport in plenty of time for our flight. If you have a longer layover at Lisbon, book this tour as it is wonderful! Make sure to ask for Alex! We definitely want to go back and spend more time in Lisbon after getting this taste of it!

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!
