Estela is a wonderful and knowledgeable guide. She is a lovely person who clearly knows Lisbon like the back of her hand. She did an incredible job mixing in historical knowledge with wonderful conversation. She’s extremely personable, her English is flawless, and she was extremely helpful to us in planning both our day with her and our days without her. She has lots of insights into Portuguese culture and was able to impart history from all time periods; your tour can be as detail-rich or as laid-back as you choose. I highly recommend Estela!
We were beyond lucky to be paired with Tiago for the Expert-Led Lisbon Food Tour of Chiado and Baixa. From the very first moments, it was clear we were in the hands of someone truly special. Tiago is an expert across multiple disciplines, which made for the most engaging, layered tour conversation and experience. He’s incredibly personable, and seamlessly wove history, culture, architecture, and food into every step, turn, and location. His background as an architect (past or present!) was evident as he brought the city’s architectural story to life in a way that added so much depth to the experience. What made the tour even more meaningful was how quickly he understood us. After just a short time together, he picked up on our personalities and thoughtfully added stops for local crafts and jewelry that I had been searching for. It felt curated just for us. One of his quotes that we’re still repeating now that we’re back home is: “Go check it out. Explore. Open the door, because you never know what’s on the other side.” That spirit of curiosity set the tone for our entire stay in Lisbon. The tour was the perfect way to begin our trip — it gave us confidence navigating the city and inspired us to seek out local events and restaurants beyond the typical tourist spots. We now count him as a friend and can’t wait to return to explore more areas of the city with him. He was, quite literally, the best tour guide we have ever had.

We really enjoyed this walking tour. Estella was an exceptionally good guide; knowledgeable, energetic, engaged and with a sense of humor. In a short time we learned a great deal about Lisbon, it's history and came away with some great insider tips for maximizing our time in Lisbon as well as surrounding areas like Sintra and Belem. I highly recommend this tour and Estella!
