Olá (Hello) my name is Silvia. I'm a dreamy native Portuguese that enjoys to walk and imagine how things where in the past and how they may be in the future. I'm a licensed professional tour guide and I truly believe that my best quality is the way I do my job. I have an immense love for my city Lisbon, and sharing all of my broad knowledge of Portuguese history and culture through my passion. A professional guide should be informative but also be able to paint a picture so perfect in your imagination that you feel like you're traveling through the memories of the past and the present. I just love my country and my city, so I don't know any other way to express it other than through giving vibrant, immersive and heart touching tours. There's not a price you can put on taking the time to get to know Portugal and being able to take in unforgettable memories. At the end of the day the experience is always beyond enriching as we absorb gorgeous views, get to know locals and take in all the history that Portugal has to offer. So join me on this adventure where you will find the best our beautiful country has to offer from breath take castles to parks and museums. I'm sure (it's really important to me) you'll take home wonderful memories of my Portuguese culture after spending some time with me. Who knows, maybe you will feel enough to truly feel "saudade"; the typical Portuguese feeling of missing someone or something that made us unforgettably happy. All of my tours are private. You can experience a "walking tour" which in my opinion is the best way to get to know the heart of my lovely city. But there's also "tour by car", in Lisbon but also to other places not far away from Lisbon. Almost everything is possible and I'm open to customize the tour in the way that better suits your interest. Let me personally introduce Lisbon to you! Licensed Guide since 2008

Overview of your Lisbon tour

If you can see as much as possible of Lisbon in one day this is the tour. As the best way to visit the city is walking, let's walk! So we will start exploring the old areas of Lisbon, Chiado, Alfama and the city center, the busy streets, the many squares, up in down because Lisbon is the city of the hills. we will speak about Fado, black plague, the glamour of the XIX century. After a break to eat something we will continue to the monumental district: Belém. As is far from the city center we will take a cab or public transportation. This is the area where we will talk about "Portuguese Discoveries", the gold period of Portugal's history, and see remarkable monuments such as the Belém Tower and the Jeronimos Monastery (close on Mondays), both world heritage sites. We will have also the opportunity to visit the famous "Pastelaria de Belém", where we Portuguese insist, we find the best custard tart in Portugal! (our local sweet). Are you ready? :)

Sílvia, our tour guide , was outstanding. We spent over 7 hours with her on a walking tour of Lisbon , and she kept our attention throughout . She understood that her tour had some overlap with another one of our tours and recommended we visit the tile museum , which was excellent. We would recommend Sílvia to anyone

Silvia was a wonderful tour guide. She was a font of information and she knew many details that only a local would know. My friend and I haven't enjoyed exercising (full day walking tour) like this ever. We would happily take the same tour again with Silvia. I highly recommend this tour and her to anyone going to Lisbon.

We had the pleasure of having Silvia Fialho as our tour guide in Lisbon. She was very knowledgeable about the city and its rich history. She took us to some of the most beautiful places in Lisbon, was very friendly, patient, and made sure our entire group of 11 had a great time. I would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Lisbon. Thanks again Silvia!

I had a one day tour with Silvia F. I am extremely please to recommend her for several reasons. First we exchanged emails in which I told her what I'd like to do and what I would not want to do. It was obvious she listened to what I said and planned our time together accordingly. Silvia is a warm, friendly and knowledgable professional. She made me feel like we were two good friends spending the day together, with my learning a lot about Lisbon and Portugal. I wish we could have had more time together.

Silvia was fantastic. Extremely knowledgeable and very professional. We were engaged for the whole 6+ hours.

Your Lisbon tour itinerary

- Chiado still with +so much glamour, the area where in XIX century the royal family and nobles use to go to attend the Theater and shopping, still today is a vibrant area in Lisbon - Baixa or downtown, rebuilt after the huge earthquake in 1755 today is a very organized area in the city, a meeting point between locals and visitors and where we can see (from outside) the Santa Justa Elevator - Alfama one of the most famous districts in Lisbon is still amazing people living here in tiny little house where cars can't reach. Here we continue not having the feeling of being in a capital of a country, but in a small town. - Belém district is related to our golden age, the discoveries. We will se Belem tower and Discoveries Monument from outside and visit the church at Jeronimo Monastery (except there's a special event that don't allow us to go inside, please notice is close on Mondays) *I can customize this tour according to your interests
