Hi! My name is João and I've been a professional tour guide since 2015. I was born and raised in Lisbon, so it's fair to say that this city has always been a big part of my life. Currently, I'm still a Lisbon local and a history enthusiast who loves to travel, therefore, I consider myself very capable to tell you all about the city secrets and history, while showing you around any corner or main attraction. Besides Lisbon, I also do tours around the rest of the country, mainly in Fátima and Sintra, which are both places full of beauty and fascinating historical backgrounds. In addition to that, I not only do multi-days tours all over the country, but also, these might include winery visits and a gastronomy component, so that's something that interests you, I can show you the best wineries and restaurants, while letting you know all the details about them. During my entire life I've traveled around the world, so as well as my clients, I've also been a tourist. Due to that, I can promise to offer the type of service that I would love to have everywhere, making sure to be aware of quality and safety in every ride. With all this being said, I hope you'll join me on your next adventure :) - Tourism of Portugal RNAVT 5490 - All insurances required and registered by Tourism of Portugal - Safe & Clean certification by Tourism of Portugal - Guide training by Palaces of Sintra directors

Overview of your Lisbon tour

Welcome to Fatima. Come fulfill a promise, come on a pilgrimage. The Fatima tour is a special one to me, since it has a deeper meaning to itself. Besides Fatima's pilgrimage being a big part of our country's culture, it's also the place where many catholic people around the world come to share and practice their spiritual beliefs and connect to God through prayer. I personally find it beautiful, the way people move around by faith. Especially due to the fact that a lot of portuguese families come here to pray! Therefore, this experience should be a must on your Portugal bucket list. Also in our tour, discover the story of 3 children who profoundly marked Portuguese society in the 20th century and their relationship with Pope John Paul II. Here you'll not only be visiting the Sanctuary, but you'll also get to know the village where the little shepherds lived, their houses, which are preserved as they were in 1917. And if you're lucky, we might even find the children's relatives! Hope you'll join me!!
