About the operator
- I2066YZkimg00Lisbon in the historical and fun way, privately.Exceptional tour! A two hour walking tour in the heart of Lisbon. Pedro was extremely knowledgeable and fun. He accommodated us at every turn and never hurried us. My girlfriend and I felt very comfortable as we explored Lisbon. He took us into areas we would never found on our own. Once we got to the wine tasting it was fabulous. The different kinds of olive oils from local regions with fresh bread was delightful and then experiencing five different local varieties of wine ended our night on a high note. Totally recommend and ask for Pedro he is a natural and excels at his job.
- Katergn00Walk, Talk, Learn and LaughDid a 3 hour walking tour with Leo, who was extremely informing, interesting and fun. The tour provided us with good historical information along with some interesting details of the places we saw and the people who passed through over the ages. We highly recommend this tour.
- whd7200Fantastic tourI would highly recommend this tour. Elsa was the best tour guide! She was extremely knowledgeable and personable. We felt as if we were old friends by the end of the tour. We learned a lot about the city, and she took us to some places we never would have seen on our own. The wine and food tasting was memorable. The charcuterie board was amazing, and the wines were delicious. A very enjoyable experience.
- lewisw88100What a great way to spend the afternoonThis was an awesome way to spend time in Lisbon. Exploring the city and then having an awesome experience tasting Port. Learning about Lisbon's history was a highlight of the trip for us.
- A7037QVsusanc00EXCEPTIONAL tour with wonderful guide and driverFour of us went on an all-day driving/walking tour of Lisbon, Portugal with Elsa as our guide and Rui as our driver. As a native of Lisbon, Elsa was so knowledgeable about the city, from one end to another, and took us places we probably never would have gone otherwise. Rui drove through the narrow cobble streets of Lisbon with the precision of someone who knew exactly what he was doing. Together they made the tour fun and enjoyable and the hours flew by. It could not have been better and we so appreciate all Bothe Elsa and Rui did to make the tour amazing. We feel like we ended with two new friends!
- gretcheng41400Fabulous experienceWe enjoyed the walking tour of Lisbon very much! Our favorite part of the tour was the charcuterie and wine tasting! Just an enjoyable experience!!
- lauravN7121ZM00Incredible Tour Guide & ToursOur private tour guide, Elsa, was unbelievably knowledgeable and made the experience incredible. We tour with her on two separate days and there was a great sense of camaraderie. Visits included Sintra and Cascais on one day and Obidos, Nazare, and Fatima on another. We would have only learned a mere fraction of the information if we went on our own -- Elsa always had so much more useful, interesting, and valuable to add. Could not recommend this company (and Elsa in particular!) any more strongly!
- Courtney500Perfect Kickoff to our HoneymoonWe booked this tour after another friend recommended we do so. My husband and I did a private tour with Your Friend in Lisbon after getting in on the red eye for our Portuguese honeymoon. Adriana walked us around the city, including a stop for a ginja to kick us off. After the walking tour we had our tasting. The tasting started with three olive oils, and then moved onto wines, meats and cheeses. This was one of the most beautiful and delicious charcuterie boards we have ever seen. In addition to the great tour and tasting, it was so great to start our trip being able to just chat with a local. Adriana was able to teach us about the history and food of Portugal, but also chatted with us about recommendations on where to visit, some lessons in the Portuguese language, and just general things we should know. It really felt like we were just hanging out with our new friend and were so grateful to kick off our trip this way.
- Rulo123400Great was to spend an afternoon in Lisbon!Pedro our tour guide was friendly and very knowledgeable. The wine tasting and charcuterie were outstanding. Highly recommend!
- MatthewPhiladelphia00An Amazing Day Trip from LisbonIt was a day trip from Lisbon to Bengali Caves in Algarve then back to Lisbon. It was a first class experience with both knowledgeable and caring people from my friends in Lisbon. The time flew by each way in the car and boat and the Caves were phenomenal. The water and the light were stunning. We saw a pod of dolphins in the sea and our skipper followed them so we could all see the dolphins. Elsa was a terrific tour guide with Alex as the driver. We all had a wonderful Portuguese lunch with grilled sea bass at local restaurant. It was a 10 out 10 experience. Thank you.
- Barry H00Excellent Lisbon ToursWe used this company twice and had outstanding experiences both times. We arrived in Lisbon after a cruise and Alex met us at our hotel for a wonderful 3 hour walking tour of the city. Alex was fun and informative and took us to interesting nooks and crannies of the city; it was a great way to get to know Lisbon. We ended at a small restaurant where we were met by our private sommelier Adriana. We were set to taste 5 wines and after discussing things with her, we tried 2 wines and 3 ports. It was so much fun and she was so informative. We started with olive oil tasting and then had the most delicious charcuterie board. After this, Alex took us for traditional Portuguese pastries. After a day by ourselves, Elsa picked us up at our hotel for an exursion to Sintra and Cascais. We had a private Mercedes van and driver, who was delightful. Elsa was fun, energetic and full of great information. We visited the Pena Palace which was breathtaking and then went to Sintra, a beautiful hillside village, where we shopped and ate local pastries. We then headed to the sea for a delicious lunch and then drove down the coast back to Lisbon, stopping at the Caves of Hell and the lovely town of Cascais. It was an extraordinary day.
- vad10201600An amazing combination of great history and great food!It was absolutely amazing! We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Pedro, who was exceptionally knowledgeable on Portuguese history, so personable and friendly. We had this tour on the last day of our 9-day trip through Portugal, so we were able to talk with Pedro about all the information we have collected so far, connect all the dots, and get all of our unanswered questions covered. It felt like a lovely afternoon spent with the company of a good friend. Both parts of the tour - the sightseeing and the port wine tasting (with tapas!) - were equally great! We wholeheartedly recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for a great experience in the beautiful city of Lisbon!
- nigelmN1306US00Absolutely amazing!Absolutely amazing! An all round top quality tour. An exceptional guide with an amazing knowledge of the city but also super friendly, personable and professional. The port wine tasting and tapas at the end of the tour was a perfect way to round off a brilliant 4 hour tour of this beautiful city.
- hanmarg00Great way to start your Lisbon vacation!We had a fabulous tour with Sofia. It was a great way to spend our first afternoon in Lisbon. We had a nice walk around the nearby neighborhoods and learned some of the history of Lisbon. She showed us places to go and a few to avoid plus shortcuts to get around. We finished up with a fabulous tasting of Portuguese wines and the largest most amazing charcuterie board I have ever seen. They even had gluten free bread for me . I highly recommend this tour as well as Sofia!!
- Shirleeee00Elsa is WonderfulElsa is the perfect tour guide. She is so knowledgeable about the history and gastronomy of Portugal - and fun and interesting. We made so many stops for food and wine and she explained each and she knows the best place. At the end of the tour she helped us buy our transportation cards for the next day. She is a real gem.

Pedro was such a great guide. He had an encyclopedic knowledge of the history of the neighborhoods we walked. And he is a kind and caring human being. We walked the full three hours with him providing a great and thorough, informative narrative. We fully recommend these folks for this tour.

We had a wonderful morning on our tour with Elsa. My former history major daughter was thrilled with Elsa's like minded narrative, especially regarding the how the buildings, statues and places fit into the histical narrative...and the tangents that led from them. Elsa says she talks to much...but oh no, the more the better.
Very mindfull of guest's physical ability (ok to walk up hills?) Spectacular viewing locations. She definately knows the best ways to get around the city. Would recommend without hesitation.

We just finished an amazing walking tour of with Sophia. She showed us areas we would never have found, and gave such a depth of understanding of the history, the politics, the people and information that we wouldn’t have read in a guide book. And she was so personable, it was a conversation, never a lecture. She told the story with many layers and great heart. It was a pleasure to be in her company.

Pedro was awesome. Highly recommend. I had no expectations except to get the lay of the land but I was wowed by his knowledge and his ability to navigate through the city. He also gave us many wonderful ideas for the rest of our stay. Many thanks!

Two great tours with Alex, tailored to our family of 4 adults. My husband has poor hearing, so rather than go on the usual walking tour, Alex picked us up at our apartment with a wireless audio system so none of us missed a word. Loved our 3.50 hours seeing and learning about the city - highlights and backdoor too. We assured her we liked history, and she obliged with details, but tempered it with fun and humor too. Two days later she put together a package for Belem, picked up in a beautiful van with our luggage. She knew I didn't want to be spending a lot of time in lines, so timed everything and bought tickets ahead to avoid the waits. Then the driver whisked us to our inn in Sintra, A magical morning and seamless too.

We had a wonderful walking tour with Margarida! We were late getting to the meeting point but she waited for us and showed no frustration with our miscue. In fact, the office actually called to check on us and make sure we were going to make the tour.
We had a nice casual stroll around several areas of Lisbon with great information about the history of Lisbon. Margarida had a lot of wonderful information given to us in impeccable English. She was very willing to answer all our questions and moved the tour at a great pace. We even got to stop for a little treat along the way.
I have done a lot of walking tours and this ranks right at the top. Would highly recommend!

If we could give a SIX rating we would.
This private tour of Lisbon was fantastic! Elsa was our guide. On the tip of her tongue, she had details about the history of Lisbon and Portugal, the Portuguese language as well as the local culture and cuisine.
She took us from our hotel on the Avenue of Liberty, to The Square and through to the Alfama neighborhood then down to the river. It was fun. It was super educational. And we're very happy she spent so much time with us,
Also, Elsa, if you're reading this, lunch at the Time Out was great.

What a great start to our first full day. Elsa was so knowledgeable, enthusiastic, understanding (of late night before…) and friendly. Learnt so much and have a much better understanding of Portuguese history and the relationship between our 2 countries. Three hours was perfect. Very good value for a small group private tour.

Wonderful walking tour and excellent most knowledgeable guide of Lisbon! Alex took us to the most interesting neighborhoods and sights off the beat and track. She was lovely, funny, and full of informative details. She knows all of the elevators to use to avoid climbing the hills. We highly recommend this guided tour with Alex.

We loved this tour! /this was our second trip to Lisbon, plus we took the company's Vintage Food/Port Tasking Tour the prior morning.. So our guide Alex planned a wonderful trip for us - knowing all we had seen before. We spent most of the day touring the Alfama neighborhood. She was so informative and a pleasure to spend time with. A wonderful experience! Higly recommended!

For those that have hired Your Friend in Lisbon, can you tell me the locations you visited on your walking tour (specifically ... not just Baixa for example). We're doing the 3hr tour on our first day but I'm trying to plan our other days and not having much luck finding details of where we'll visit on the tour ...
