This walking tour with Travel Curious was the perfect introduction to Lisbon. Our guide Tania was fantastic — her knowledge of the city's history was incredible, from the 1755 earthquake's impact on Carmo Convent to the Pombaline grid design of Baixa, but what really made the tour special was her sense of humor. She kept things light and fun while still packing in tons of great information, and she had local tips for restaurants, viewpoints, and Fado bars that ended up shaping the rest of our trip in Lisbon.
Walking from Chiado through Baixa and up into Alfama gave us a real feel for the city's layers of history, and the views from Miradouro de Santa Luzia were stunning. Tania's pacing was great for photos too.
We booked this tour through Mike McHugh at Dream Makers Vacation Services, who put together our whole Lisbon and Porto itinerary — everything was seamless and well organized from start to finish. Highly recommend both Travel Curious for the tour and Mike for trip planning.
Five stars all around!

Alex was awesome. Great communicator and her knowledge of the history of Lisbon and Portugal was amazing. She went above and beyond to make sure we got to the subway, ,riding with us, and walked us to our dinner spot! Highly recommend!

Perfectly curated private Lisbon tour experience
We enjoyed our private tour with Rui from Travel Curious, and came away with a much richer understanding of how layered (literally!) the history of Lisbon is. He walked us through several of the historical neighborhoods of the city and shared how the commercial, religious, royal and cultural communities intersected across various eras. He did a fantastic job weaving stories that explained how the architecture and layout of the city still echo through what we see today. I appreciated the curation to our interests -- it was much more engaging than a typical group tour experience, and highly recommend checking them out.
