Dear travelers and lovely people, my name is Alexandru and I would describe myself as a very positive person, natural communicator and a fantastic story teller with a great sense of humor. I have a passion for history, travel and Portugal. I really love to be a tour guide because this allows me to talk about my passions all day long. :) I have a wide experience, with a background of more than 12 years as a tour guide and I can show you all the hidden gems of Lisbon and Portugal. Also, I am always trying to adjust to the preferences of the group and the excursions I make are always interesting and funny. If you prefer a guide with a good history knowledge, who knows the best spots in the country along with a full baggage of jokes - I am your person. I can assure you that your tour with me will be a memorable one. I have all the licenses and insurance required by the Portuguese Government for the exercise of the activity of tourist guide.
