No hesitation in recommending this experience. Nuno, our guide, was a gem, full of information and help. He taught us a lot about Portugal and its history. And even found time to take us to a great ice cream shop.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the experience and that Nuno made such a positive impression. He is truly passionate about sharing Portugal's history, culture, and local traditions, so it's fantastic to know that his knowledge and enthusiasm helped make your tour memorable. And of course, no Lisbon adventure is complete without a stop for some delicious ice cream! We're glad Nuno could add that special touch to your day. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back to Lisbon again in the future! Best regards,
This was an amazing tour given by Julio and Felipa.. They were so knowledgeable about all the history in Lisbon. We chose the one to four hour tour and did the full four hours and they showed us every inch of the city. I don’t think we could’ve covered an eighth of it without the tour. Highly recommended. Viator was fantastic to work with, I will only book through them from now on.
Hi Patty! Thank you so much for your kind words! We are very happy to hear your group had a great experience with our guides, Julio and Filipa, and that you were able to see and learn so much of the city! Hope to welcome you again on your next visit to Lisbon! Kind regards,
It is a very friendly and flexible tour. The driver had a good sense of humor and knew the place well. Saw almost everything.
Hi, Thank you very much for your kind words! We are happy to hear you had a great experience with us and that our guide was able to make your experience unique with his sense of humor! Hope to welcome you again! Kind Regards,
Good two hour intro to Lisbon but not a comfy ride. My suggestion is that you make sure you book a similar tour with a four wheel tuk tuk that has balloon tires.
Thank you for your feedback and for joining our tour. We're glad you enjoyed your tour and appreciate your comments regarding the ride comfort. Our fleet consists exclusively of traditional 3-wheel tuk tuks, which are the most authentic and common type used in Lisbon's historic neighborhoods. We understand that comfort preferences vary from guest to guest, and we appreciate you sharing your experience. We're pleased that you still enjoyed discovering Lisbon with us and hope to welcome you again in the future. Kind regards,
What particularly excited us: The Tuk-Tuk is simply the perfect way to explore Lisbon's hilly terrain. The rides through the steep streets would have been exhausting on foot, so we could just enjoy and marvel. Our driver Diego spontaneously responded to our wishes and even showed us a secret spot that no tour guide knows.
Vielen Dank für die wunderbare Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass euch die Tour und die Fahrt durch die hügeligen Straßen von Lissabon so gut gefallen hat. Genau dafür sind Tuk-Tuks perfekt – entspannt entdecken, genießen und dabei Orte sehen, die man sonst leicht verpasst. Ein besonderes Dankeschön auch für die lieben Worte über Tiago. Er liebt es, individuell auf unsere Gäste einzugehen und ihnen besondere Ecken der Stadt zu zeigen. Wir geben das tolle Feedback natürlich an ihn weiter! Wir hoffen, euch bald wieder in Lissabon begrüßen zu dürfen.
Lovely experience on the first day. Our tour guide Nuno was knowledgeable and professional. Only needed a microphone to hear better.
Thank you for your kind words! We’re very happy to hear you enjoyed the experience and that Nuno’s knowledge and professionalism stood out. We’re truly sorry that it was sometimes difficult to hear during the tour. We hope to welcome you again soon to an even better experience!

It is truly worth it. Dominique, our guide, was very knowledgeable and friendly. He tailored the tour to our preferences and answered our questions perfectly! The tour provides a complete overview of the city and helps to better understand what is interesting to see afterward. The tour largely follows the route of the famous tram 28, which is packed to the brim. Beautiful experience!
