Dear travelers and lovely people, my name is Alexandru and I would describe myself as a very positive person, natural communicator and a fantastic story teller with a great sense of humor. I have a passion for history, travel and Portugal. I really love to be a tour guide because this allows me to talk about my passions all day long. :) I have a wide experience, with a background of more than 12 years as a tour guide and I can show you all the hidden gems of Lisbon and Portugal. Also, I am always trying to adjust to the preferences of the group and the excursions I make are always interesting and funny. If you prefer a guide with a good history knowledge, who knows the best spots in the country along with a full baggage of jokes - I am your person. I can assure you that your tour with me will be a memorable one. I have all the licenses and insurance required by the Portuguese Government for the exercise of the activity of tourist guide.

Alex did a terrific tour! He’s an excellent guide and a very fun person to spend the day with! He makes you feel like a friend.
Alex was a great tour guide. We appreciated that he bought tickets for the Pena Palace so we did not have to wait in any lines. He was very conscious of the timing. He planned our agenda to avoid the crowds as much as possible. As we left the palace, there were very long lines. At the palace, Alex was so knowledgeable of the palace/king facts. We asked a lot of questions and he answered all of them. Alex has a great personality. We loved his humor. Alex made us comfortable from the start of our tour. He also gave us a fantastic recommendation for lunch. Thanks for a wonderful day!
Apologies for the delay, but I must highly recommend Alexandru! He was incredibly prompt, helpful, and communicative while planning our Sintra tour. Knowing I was six months post-knee surgery, he was remarkably accommodating and went above and beyond to make accessing Pena Palace easy and stress-free. Alexandru is very knowledgeable, engaging, and eager to answer questions. He brought the magic of Sintra to life for us—a truly unforgettable experience. We highly recommend Alexandru!
Excellent guide. Very fun day. You will have a great experience.
Alex was an excellent tour guide. He is knowledgeable about Portuguese history, engaging and earnest making sure his clients enjoy their tour. He recommended an excellent lunch restaurant overlooking the ocean in Cascais. And as a final treat we finished our tour with a stop at Pasteis de Belem for coffee and pastry. I highly recommend Alex!
The journey will start by driving half an hour to the fairytale city of Sintra, famous for it numerous palaces and unique gardens in all Portugal. Here you will discover the last romantic style Palace built in Europe which was the residence of portuguese royal family and is called Pena Palace. The visit will take around one hour and a half. Next we are driving downhill to the historic city center where we will walk through the tiny streets full of local shops, try the local sweets and a special drink served in chocolate glass called Ginja. Driving 30 minutes from Sintra we gets to the westernmost point of continental Europe called Cabo da Roca where the land is finishing and the ocean begins. This place is famous for strong winds and magical views. Of course after so much walk and emotions we will get hungry and the best spot for lunch is a nice restaurant, in a fisherman village with ocean view, fresh fish and nice wine :) We will also visit the cities of Cascais and Estoril on our way back to Lisbon.
