Hello! My name is Francisco, and I’m a proud Lisbon native—what we call an alfacinha here in Portugal. Having lived my entire life in this vibrant city, I’ve developed an intimate knowledge of its hidden gems and a deep passion for Portuguese culture, history, and gastronomy. These three pillars make Portugal such a fascinating and inviting destination for visitors worldwide. After many years as a corporate executive, I decided to turn my lifelong passion into a career. In 2015, I launched my business as a "Chief Experience Officer," dedicated to showcasing the beauty and richness of my hometown and country. This role allows me to share Portugal's stories, culture, and breathtaking locations while learning from the extraordinary people I meet every day. My tours are highly customizable, ensuring that you—my guests—are always the center of the experience. While most tours start and end in Lisbon, I also offer multi-day programs that can cover other incredible destinations across Portugal. And I can cater to all your transportation and tour needs. If you don’t see exactly what you’re looking for in the options provided, please don't hesitate to reach out. I’ll be happy to create a personalized itinerary tailored to your preferences, group size and schedule. Also if you wish to book more than one tour or more than one day, please request a custom program where I can make a discount when 3 or more days/ tours are on the same trip. I look forward to welcoming you to my beautiful country and sharing its wonders with you. Driver Guide Certification Portuguese Tourism Office Licence nº RNAAT 687/2015

Discover the beauty of Sintra - the Moon Mountain - and Cascais.
Overview of your Lisbon tour
Join me on this full-day private tour of Sintra, a UNESCO World Heritage site. With its stunning palaces, unique architecture, historic landmarks, and breathtaking natural scenery, Sintra is truly an exceptional destination worth exploring. We will see or visit some of the region’s most iconic palaces, including Pena Palace, Quinta da Regaleira, or the Sintra National Palace. Along the way, you’ll also get to savor a traditional “queijada” cake, one of our most beloved local delicacies. While it’s impossible to visit every site in one day, you can choose your favorites, and I’ll ensure you experience those to the fullest. Take the opportunity to visit one one the most beautiful areas in Portugal with breathtaking landscapes, mystical woods and warm beaches, go to the Westernmost point of Europe and visit the villages of Estoril and Cascais then return to Lisbon on one of the most beautiful scenic routes in the region. With me at the helm, see the unraveling of Portugal's history and culture!
Your Lisbon tour itinerary

Note: As some of the palaces in Sintra, namely at this point the Pena Palace and Quinta da Regaleira, have a timed entrance and can be very crowded in the warmer months, it's advisable to pre-buy the tickets. To do so, contact me, preferably more than one month ahead, so we can define a plan for our visit and I can advise you on the best way to do it.
