Welcome to Portugal! I am an australian-born Portuguese living in Lisbon since I was 8 years old. The portuguese landscape, history, food, traditions and warm personality have won me over and I hope to share all this with you! I studied Tourism, becoming a Licensed Guide in 2009 and I absolutely love my job! I get to welcome people from around the world every day and show them a genuine perspective of what it is to be a local in Lisbon. My goal is to guarantee you have a memorable visit, an excellent learning experience and feel like you got to know a true Portuguese person that could answer your questions and curiosities. Beside the tours presented on my profile, I am happy to customize any tour, in case you have a special request or interest! Please contact me to make it happen! I live in an historical neighbourhood and believe that the best way to get to know a city is by walking. Thus, I have several walking tours, to show you the best views and hidden gems of the city. I also have tours with a car/van and a driver. The driver drops us off by the monument or place of interest and I stay with you , giving you indepth information. Join me to have a fun and meaningfull tour! See you soon! I am a licensed, registered and insured Tour Guide since 2009. No restrictions in terms of guiding. I am not a driver. I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Starting the tour at the Tower of Belém, a wonderful defensive structure dating back to 1515! We shall understand both it's historic and artistic importance, as an unique example of the Manuline style - a national architectural style you will only find in Portugal. Walk to the Monument of the Discoveries, shaped like a ship sailing the seas. This monument summarizes some of the great journeys of Portuguese sailors. There is also a world map with all the different places the Portuguese people arrived in the 15/16th century, explaining the goals, difficulties and glories of these voyages. Next the fabulous Monestary of St Jerome awaits us, this building in the gem of the "Manuline" style. I did an intership here so it is one of my favourites! We visit the Church and Cloister. Lines might be long depending on the season and events taking place. Finish on a high note we will taste the famous Pasteis de Belém! The original and most delicious Portuguese custard tarts!
Tower of Belém Monument of the Discoveries Monastery of St Jerome - visit inside the church and cloister Pasteis de Belém - custard tarts for a sweet finish! The tour can be customised according to your preferences, please inquire
