I have been working in tourism as a guide, manager and consultant since 2004. My background includes an international career that allowed me to travel extensively, helping me understand how valuable a good local guide can be for discovering the true character of a place. Today, I offer private walking and car tours that go beyond standard itineraries, always adapted to each traveler’s interests, pace and expectations. My goal is to help visitors truly understand Portugal through local insight, stories, daily life — and gastronomy. I am an officially licensed national tour guide, with academic training in tourism (Master and Phd) and a professional diploma as a cooking chef. This allows me to design and lead food-focused experiences, local meals and gastronomic tours with real context, not just tastings. I value clarity, organization and flexibility, and I enjoy creating relaxed, personal experiences for travelers of all ages. Tours can be adapted for guests with mobility needs upon request. I look forward to welcoming you and sharing my country in an authentic, engaging and meaningful way.

Fátima is a charming and unique place that should be experienced with all the senses turned on: Details, make the difference and local guides know how to share it with you! By converting my personal, professional and academic experience into a tour, I can customize each tour with the utmost rigor and maintain the highest standards of safety and politeness with my clients. I can prepare thematic tours of any required subject, (for example: "Gastronomy: Wine and Food" (as I'm qualified Chef); Art/Architecture. Travelers with disabilities are very welcome, as I have equipment to support them (walkers, wheelchairs, etc). My credentials: Book Lover - Licensed National Oficial Tour Guide (no restriction guiding inside sites) - European Federation of Tourist Guide Associations - Academical Degree in Tourism Business and Administration - PG in Literary Tourism - Professional Graduate Cooking Chef Diploma - Wine and Olive Oil tasting certification - CPR - Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation.
Jose is an excellent guide of Fatima, Tomar, Coimbra, Alcobaca, and Batalha. We had four fantastic days with Jose giving us tours on foot and by car. He was willing at anytime to adjust our needs and interests. Jose is very knowledgeable, personable, and accommodating.At the end of four days of touring, we felt as though Jose was a part our family. BRAVO!
