I specialize in private, customized experiences designed for travelers who value comfort, history, authenticity, and meaningful local insight.

Antonio was awesome. He was extremely knowledgeable, interesting and entertaining. He used his car GPS to augment the geographical information. My two adult daughters and I took the eight hour private tour and time just flew. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Antonio arrived on time, his car was very clean and comfortable. He was a safe and respectful driver. We will recommend Antonio to all our family and friends.
Antonio is a wonderful and very knowledgeable guide. He managed the day with a very pleasant pace. We never felt rushed and we knew we would see all of the sites that were promised. Antonio speaks perfect English and had an answer for every question we asked at each location. I will reach out again when we return to Portugal!
Our day with Antonio was perfect! He is very personable and shared so much information. Guides like him are the reason we use Tours By Locals.
Excellent day in Sintra. Antonio knew all the ins and outs and provided an informative and interesting day.
Antonio was awesome, we all enjoyed our day touring with him so much! He was not only fun but so informative, even for other areas of Portugal we planned to visit on our own. Having a private local tour guide is the only way to visit, you see and experience the best places so much easier. Could not even imagine visiting the Pena Palace on our own, I heard so many complaints from other visitors who did it themselves. Book with Antonio and you won't be disappointed, you will see sites in comfort and learn so much more about Portugal.
We loved having Antonio as our guide and decided to book 2 trips with them! Would highly recommend and would definitely use him again in the future
