Hi, my name is Hermes, a private guide based in Lisbon with a background in corporate events. I was born in Cascais, a coastal town west of Lisbon known for its multicultural environment. During my teenage years, I had the opportunity to travel across the country, experiencing different Portuguese traditions and visiting most of the UNESCO World Heritage sites in Portugal. After 20 years of professional experience in corporate events, in 2014 I decided to embrace a new professional project: welcoming and introducing Portuguese culture to those who visit us. Each tour is designed as a private event, with attention to detail and a focus on your experience. My daily goal is to see smiles on my clients’ faces and share with them the love I have for my country and its history. I enjoy reading novels, walking through historic streets, travelling, meeting people, and talking about Portuguese history and culture. All my tours can be personalized according to your preferences — please do not hesitate to ask. Working as a tour guide since 2014 Operating Portuguese tourism license: 276/2014

Sintra is a beautiful village full of history, with an unique natural park and views over the ocean. A wonderful place where the old continent ends and the new world begins. Cascais, once a fishing village, later a resort for European royalty, it is now considered the Portuguese Riviera. Sintra, historic village, it is known for the palaces and the Moorish castle, land of royalty, fairy tales, mystical places and parks with trees from all continents. On our day trip we will also see small towns over the cliffs and the westernmost point in European continent. Cascais, a waterfront village, with several beaches, where you can walk through the same places that European royalty walked and feel the ocean breeze. I can customize this tour according to your requests

Hermes was an outstanding guide for this tour! Our family needed to modify the tour to fit our schedule and Hermes was extremely helpful in arranging and executing a great plan for our situation. We learned a lot and loved getting to know Sintra! Awesome!
Hermes provided an excellent experience. He was prompt, courteous, informative, & well-organized. The tour of Pena Palace was fantastic, as were his viewpoints of Sintra. He chose an excellent lunch spot outside Cascais which we greatly appreciated. I found both Sintra & Cascais to be a little touristy and therefore not my most favorite part of the Portugal trip but it’s what we signed up for. Notwithstanding that, I highly recommend Hermes as a guide.
Lovely day with Hermes. Thank you
Hermes was a great guide. Very Informative, professional and considerate of our needs. If ever in Lisbon hes the guide you need.
Hermes was amazing! Very informative and flexible. The Quinta da Regaleira was closed due to weather at the last minute. Hermes was able to rearrange our itinerary and add last minute stops to accommodate us. We had a great time, learned so much, and ate great food!
