I have been working in tourism as a guide, manager and consultant since 2004. My background includes an international career that allowed me to travel extensively, helping me understand how valuable a good local guide can be for discovering the true character of a place. Today, I offer private walking and car tours that go beyond standard itineraries, always adapted to each traveler’s interests, pace and expectations. My goal is to help visitors truly understand Portugal through local insight, stories, daily life — and gastronomy. I am an officially licensed national tour guide, with academic training in tourism (Master and Phd) and a professional diploma as a cooking chef. This allows me to design and lead food-focused experiences, local meals and gastronomic tours with real context, not just tastings. I value clarity, organization and flexibility, and I enjoy creating relaxed, personal experiences for travelers of all ages. Tours can be adapted for guests with mobility needs upon request. I look forward to welcoming you and sharing my country in an authentic, engaging and meaningful way.

5 STARS!!!! What a fabulous experience with our guide, Jose! He was so kind and thoughtful and we truly enjoyed our 7+ hours together. I highly recommend this type of tour for anyone exploring areas between Lisbon and Porto. We found Coinbra to be amazing and Fatima, what can I say….it was humbling and remarkable all at the same time. Fatima is an experience that will stay with us for a very long time. I appreciate that, prior to our tour, Jose answered all my questions in a very thoughtful and meaningful way. His responses were not only timely but also very thorough. This was incredibly helpful as this was my first time in Portugal. Thank you, Jose, for making our trip to Portugal very special!

We (four Americans) spent 4 days with Jose over a 10 day period. He took us Lisbon-Sintra-Coimbra-Porto-Fatima-Lisbon and many places in between (too numerous to mention here). He brought us to places we never would have found ourselves. Recommended great restaurants, things to see and Fado houses. He has a great attitude, is very knowledgeable and willing to tailor your tour to what you want to see. We can highly recommend him and if I ever go back to Portugal, Jose will be my guide!

Jose went out of his way to accommodate our interests in a specific type of architecture - he was extremely helpful to my husband, who had a mobility disorder. We enjoyed our day with him very much.
