Hello from Lisbon!! I'm António and I'm a professional tour guide. I was born and raised in the magical town of Sintra, right next to Lisbon. I've traveled the world but it's here, in the cosyness of home, that I feel the most happy. And it's this passion for Portugal in all its diversity that led me to love sharing the wonders of my country with others. Visitors still become surprised with the amount of beauty and history/culture they come a cross in Portugal and telling them those stories and showing those places is something that gives me great pleasure and that makes me enjoy touring so much. I'm naturally very curious (don't be surprised if I ask you a ton of questions about your country). Is this curiosity that keeps motivating me to know more about how Portugal became what it is now a days in all aspects. And as a tour guide this is something I'm proud of. After all, my main goal is for you and your party have the most fun possible while experiencing and learning about this wonderfull European country. In most tours I try to balance between history, culture, nature and beautiful scenery. For that I have specialized in Private tours so we can have all the flexibility of time and itinerary that better suits you. Customized tours are very welcome as well so do not hesitate. Before becoming a tour guide I've studied Physical Geography and a Master's in Coastal Dynamics. This is something that I still love and follow but it was not so attractive professionally. And it's a skill that allows me to put some different interesting perspectives about the places we visit. Join me to discover and experience the best of Portugal!

Overview of your Lisbon tour

On this tour we'll drive north of Lisbon to discover the old trading routes and origins of Portugal. It will pleasantly combine history, culture and beautiful scenery. You'll discover majestic monuments like the Convent of Christ (the Templar's headquarters) and the Monastery of Batalha. The Portuguese deep ocean culture is perfectly represented by the town of Nazaré - home to the biggest waves in the world (it holds the Guinness world record for the biggest wave ever surfed) and a strong fishing culture. We'll also discover the unique medieval walled town of Óbidos, its historic streets and traditional architecture.

Wonderful tour! António was very knowledgeable and very personable. The Templar history was interesting and especially the Templar chapel was amazing to then see. The trip to the coast was breathtaking and a wonderful lunch choice at Nazarre. Well worth the trip!

We had a very enjoyable day touring Tomar, Nazare and Obidos with Antonio. He is a very knowledgeable and engaging tour guide. We have a much better understanding of the history of the Templar’s in Portugal. It was great to get out of Lisbon for the day and see more of the surrounding countryside. Highly recommend.

Our guide gave us an excellent tour. He was very knowledgeable and gave us an excellent historical overview of all the sites we saw. He was careful to make sure we saw the sites we asked to see and answered any questions we had. He also took us to a wonderful local place with a great view. He was very professional and was very personable. We really enjoyed our tour and we highly recommend him.

Your Lisbon tour itinerary

Enjoy a complimentary Hotel pick up from your guide at 8:30am (suggested time) and enjoy a 1:30h ride to our first stop - the Convent of Christ in Tomar. Convent of Christ - Tomar You'll see exquisite 900-year-old architecture and learn about how the Knights Templars influenced the history of Portugal. From Tomar we'll drive to the Monastery of Batalha to hear about another key moment in our history - when the Portuguese fought the Spanish for their independence on one of the biggest medieval field battles in European history. The grandiosity of this gothic Monastery is something to admire. Nazaré After an enjoyable lunch in Batalha we'll head to Nazaré and appreciate its beautiful coastal views, the fishing village vibe and visit the place where the biggest waves in the world are surfed. Óbidos On our way back to Lisbon we'll stop at the picturesque medieval walled town of Óbidos. You can taste its traditional cherry liqueur while admiring its simple and unique architecture.
