About
Around Lisbon is not your typical Tour Company, as you may have known them. In fact, we don’t like to think of Around Lisbon as a business. It is rather the special life project of two friends, who wanted to develop a friendly local company to cater to like-minded people from all over the world. Our goal is to be your "local friends" who help you enjoy Lisbon and Portugal to the fullest. That makes our day too.

What a brilliant day out in Lisbon thanks to our guides Nuno & Gustov. They took us to see all the main attractions and their favourite places. Their historical knowledge of the city know no bounds.
We can thoroughly recommend this tour. Our short holiday would have not have been so enjoyable if we had not met these young men and taken this tour.

You must take this tour and ask for these 2 guides - you will not be disappointed.

My guide Ana was phenomenal! She was the nicest, most knowledgeable, most accommodating guide ever! She went above and beyond and I had an amazing time with her. I had a wonderful trip to the beautiful region of Sintra and got to see beautiful palaces and gardens and the ocean and it was overall fantastic! I would highly recommend this tour and this guide. Totally worth it!

Anna was great. She gave us so much information on the sites. Her English was perfect. I was traveling with my 19 year old son and he loved it. She was very accommodating and concerned about what we needed. Lunch was amazing - an outdoor patio that was covered and heated for January. We had Iberian pork which was delicious. The Chapel of Bones was something we had not seen before. We saw the Roman ruins and walked around Evora. The Stone Circles of Cromlech, the burial spot and the single stone were magical. Overall great tour and well done.

Our guide Raquel was fantastic. She showed us the sights and asked what we wanted to see. Took us to the Aquaduct and many other small interesting places around town. She was very friendly, knowledable and manouvered the streets and traffic well. We would liked to have spent more time with her roaming Lisbon and the surrounding areas. Would certainly book her again when we return to Lisbon for a longer stay

There were six of us on the tour - my wife and I and a family of four who were great to share this experience with. Our tour guide was knowledgeable (but, if there was one comment I might make, he should be willing to move a little more off-script. I actually have a fair amount of sailing experience and felt my comments on the nature of sailing ships were pretty unwelcome - small annoyance.)

Our weather did not cooperate; however, our guide was great in accommodating that and moved us along to venues where we could take shelter. The pastries that were included met all expectations in his build-up. They were off-the-charts good.

And, the absolute best part for me was the tour of the aquaduct. That was simply amazing. I think that if the weather had been a little more cooperative, I would have also enjoyed immensely the Belem Tower as well as the Discoveries Monument.

Again, highly recommended.

We greatly enjoyed our time on this tour. Our guide Rui Barbosa had an excellent combination of low key attitude and wealth of information. Our small group (7 people) was perfect size for feeling independent while being guided, driven and having personal attention. We had free time in all places, which was excellent opportunity to explore on our own, even if just for an hour or two. We had a luxury of private driver and a guide in one, and just very pleasant person to talk to, ask questions, and fulfill our curiosity. Since our group was very disciplined and always on time, our tour went without a glitch and we even had some extra free time. It was also very convenient to have all the entrance tickets included and not to waste any time in lines. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel and everything was extremely well organized. It became clear that this tour is the best way to visit Sintra and Cascais without hassle of transportation, difficult roads, lines and absence of guidance. And it was a great way to spend a day away from the big city. Views are amazing, towns are unique and the Castle is a must see. Thank you, Rui, for making this day one to remember! (even with the rainy start:-)

Our tour guide, Marcos, was super friendly and very knowledgeable about the history of the island and Portugal as a whole. The weather was a little rough in the morning making the boat ride to the island less than pleasant. If you get sea sick I recommend taking some medicine. Other than that the day was perfect! We had plenty of time to explore and it was hands down one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen in my life.

Lots to see and lots of walking around in the steep Portuguese hills. Bring sensible shoes, like sneakers. We went in Sept. and it was HOT. Nuno was our tour guide, he was very friendly and pleasant, we enjoyed his company.
