Hello, I'm Raquel, with a Tourism degree, a winery background, and a and a backpack full of memories from doing tours and traveling in different countries. When it comes to tours, think of me more as your friend than a conventional guide. I take joy in unveiling the distinctive facets of each city through my perspective, fostering a genuine connection to its culture and history. My tours are not just about the destination; they're about creating a shared experience, making every tour uniquely personal. Setúbal, my hometown, invites you to explore maritime tales and historical charm. Discover the vibrant fisherman's market and former canned goods production that make Setúbal culturally rich. Our journey then takes us to Lisbon, where iconic landmarks and hidden shortcuts reveal the city's heartbeat. Lisbon, with its blend of ancient history and vibrant modern life, provides an enchanting backdrop to our exploration. Moving on, Sintra emerges as a mystical haven just half an hour away, revealing palaces and legends that have captivated my heart. Évora, my second home, resonates with timeless charm within medieval walls. Explore its medieval ambiance and historical significance since the Roman era. The journey concludes in Fátima, Portugal's holiest place, offering sacred grounds that trace history back to the apparitions of Our Lady in 1917. Join me in exploring not just destinations but the soul of each city, where my personal ties enrich your travel experience. - Professional Tour Guide in Portugal since 2017. - Professional Tour Leader in Spain and France since 2023 - Bachelor Degree in Tourism by University of Évora - Currently finishing a 3 years specialization on Tour Guiding - Licensed by Turismo de Portugal RNAAT - "Clean & Safe" stamp given by The Portuguese Tourism Institution.
