Our half day private tour from Lisbon to Fatima with Hugo was top notch. Hugo was very informative and knew his way around easily. He had a lot of knowledge of the local area and was easy to talk to in the ride to and from Fatima. Hugo’s English is great and gave us whatever time we wanted to have some family time inside the basilica. Highly recommend Heart and Soul tours and ask for Hugo.
Hugo was an absolute gentleman who took us to Fatima . Was patient,informative and very pleasant. Many thanks. Would definitely recommend this service
Eduardo was probably the best tour guide I’ve ever had. I was on a trip through Portugal with my mom and grandma- my grandma was the one who wanted to go on this tour. I wasn’t particularly excited about it (if I’m being honest!), but wow- Eduardo really made it fun. He was interesting, his storytelling engaging- he was perfect with my grandma’s mobility issues which I really appreciated. He made us feel very welcome in Lisbon. Thank you, Eduardo!!!
