Great tour and guide

I had an excellent tour with Katarina who is an engaged storyteller. She is passionate about Lisbon and did a great tour. I will recommend taking this tour to have a good overview of Belem. She also got us into the Pastéis de Belém, avoiding all the crowds, and got us a peek into the kitchen. Don't know how she managed that. It was fun getting to know her and Lisbon through her.
Awesome tour

a beautiful way to see the city
Published on Dec, 2024
We had such a great tour with Marti. Several other guests had cancelled or not shown up so we were a very small group, I really appreciated that Marti carried on with the tour anyway. She showed us so much of the city in such a short period of time and gave us lots of recommendations and details to remember for the rest of our trip. We will absolutely return and seek out another tour with her as a guide.
