I am a certified guide and I have been leading and guiding hundreds of tours in the last 12 years. With me you will visit both the well-known tourist attractions as well as the secret gems. Thanks to my extensive experience working as a private guide for a wide variety of travelers I have learned to be a mix between a scholar tour guide and a local expert. The passion for my country took me in the direction of tourism. I live my life in a passionate way and always follow my dreams, being them professional or hobbies. Studied Tourism, have a Degree in Management, have a Master in Relationship Marketing, with a thesis about the relationship airlines have with their clients using social media, and a Postgraduate Degree in Tour Guiding. I love Art, History, Music, Photography, Nature and Surf (with 500 miles of coastline why not?). Portugal is a place where many things are possible and where the sun is always shining. My experiences as a tour guide and in life have taught me that each individual or group is unique, that what is interesting for one person may be boring for another. One of my strengths is my ability to rapidly get to know individuals and build a fluid and open conversation with them in order to understand their requirements and tailor the tour to them. Based in Lisbon, I have a selected offer of tours that reflect the passion for this city and region. Strong on details I notice numerous things that the untrained eye misses. I will show you the distinctive features of my city, explain its history, as well as provide you with a wide range of information on the sights, landmarks and local artists. A tour, in my opinion, is more than just an experience; it is an encounter between you and a new culture. I'll be the bridge, interpreteer, a local friend teaching you all about the visited destination and beyond. At the end of the tour I will help you to plan what to do and where to go or eat, in case you are staying a few more days in Lisbon. I am a certified guide and a father of a beautiful son since 2019. Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions. - Official Certified Guide by AGIC nº291 (I am allowed to guide inside all monuments in Portugal) - Studied Tourism - Degree in Management - Master in Relationship Marketing - Postgraduate Degree in Tour Guiding - Own a licensed company with all insurances required and registered at the national tourism board: RNAAT: 900/2019 No restrictions.

Tiago is amazing! Pick up from the port was super easy and fast. Communication was amazing throughout. He is super knowledgeable about the palaces and the region of Sintra and Lisbon areas. His passion for guiding was evident from the beginning. If you're in Lisbon set up a tour with Tiago, you will not regret it!

Our tour with Tiago was fantastic! He was timely, polite and a wealth of information. He gave us time for a private romantic lunch at the top of the hill in the town of Sintra at "Dona Maria" per his suggestion. The palace of Sintra was magical...follow his instructions to a tee and he will make it easy to get in and out of a crowed touristy place but well worth a visit. Until next time Tiago...Chiao, Crystal and John
