Olá from Lisbon! Did you know my city is older than Rome? My name is Raquel, born and raised in this magical capital city and very excited to share its History, curiosities and secrets with you. Some of my tours were designed to include all the 'must see' places, some take you to places only the locals know about, other are a bit of mix of both, but all of them are 100% customizable and private, so I'll plan one for you, having your interests, expectations and available time in mind. I've been showing guests around Lisbon, Sintra and other parts of Portugal for about 3 years now and have loved every minute of it. My goal is to make sure that you leave Lisbon with a bit of it in your heart, lots of enthralling stories to tell, beautiful memories and pictures to share and maybe even a few extra pounds to show just how amazing the food is here. I'm also the proud mother of an 8 year old girl, who says she wants to be President of the United States when she grows up. . . This means I know a thing or two about traveling with kids, having enough breaks, activities and games prepared for them, to make sure we all have a wonderful time in Lisbon. I'd love to take you and your family / group on an unforgettable trip in any of these formats: - Walking tours of Lisbon; - Full or half day tours with transportation of Lisbon or starting from Lisbon to other places, like Sintra, Cascais, Óbidos, Batalha, Fátima, Tomar, Évora, etc); - Multi-day tours of Portugal; - Themed tours (such as Food tours, Wine Tastings, Historical shops tour, Art and Museum tours) Please message me to find out more and let's start planning your trip together. Hope to see you soon in Lisbon! BA in International Relations Post-graduate studies in Tourism Management and Religious Tourism. I am not a driver, but I'd be happy to arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your Lisbon tour

Lisbon is full of must-see landmarks: the Cathedral of Lisbon in the Old town of Alfama, the Oldest Bookshop in the World in the neighbourhood of Chiado, the stunning Santa Justa's elevator in the Downtown area. But it also has its hidden treasures, off the beaten track places that are equally as striking: The most expensive chapel in the World, some of the rarest 400 year old tiles, the place where Anthony Bourdain fell in love with Portuguese food and one of my favourite churches in Lisbon: Carmo, the roofless church, one of the must see places in my opinion. In this 3h walking tour, we will visit both the must-sees and the places only locals know about. No visit to Lisbon would be complete, of course, without tasting the 'Pastel de Nata', the Portuguese tart: Lisbon's most famous monument!
