Getting the most out of a one-day visit.

First, booking was very easy and straightforward. We only had one day in Lisbon and wanted to make the most of it. My sister had told me about “free” walking tours of many cities in Europe. I happened to come across this one and glad I did. Both the owner of the business and the guide contacted me through What’s App and reconfirmed everything about the tour and meeting place. Was very simple. Our guide, Walter, was excellent. Very genial and knowledgeable about all things Lisbon. You can tell he has a passion for what he does and where he lives. Both my husband and I enjoyed the tour.

Very helpful and knowledgeable guides

We booked this tour but the only other group of five that had also booked this tour did not show up so our tour was cancelled. However, Walter, our guide, arranged for us to join the next tour which was not quite the same but still gave us 2 hours of information about Lisbon and its history. Kate our alternative tour guide was very knowledgeable about European and Portuguese history.

Must do as First Activity in Lisbon

Very informative, our guide Kleiber had a lot of useful information and tips. Was also very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of history, provided a list of recommendations for places to go to, shop and eat. Definitely worth it and recommend doing this as a first activity.

An amazing way to experience Alfama and Mouraria!

I went on this tour of Alfama and Mouraria with my parents and we all thoroughly enjoyed it! Our guide Walter was a FANTASTIC storyteller and incredibly knowledgeable, making Lisbon's history fun and easy to follow. You could really tell how passionate he is about the city, and his energy kept the whole group engaged. We also very much appreciated that after the tour, Walter sent us a list of recommendations for other things to do in Lisbon, as well as some great places to eat! We'd happily recommend this tour to anyone visiting Lisboa.

WALTER thank you

Today we had the pleasure of joining one of Walter’s walking tours, and it was one of the highlights of our visit to Lisbon. Walter is incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and has a wonderful sense of humor. His English is excellent, making the tour easy to follow and enjoyable from start to finish. As we wandered through the streets of Old Lisbon, he brought the city’s history to life, explaining how immigration shaped Lisbon over the centuries and how many of its iconic foods and traditions came to be. His storytelling made every stop feel meaningful. Walter was kind, approachable, and passionate about sharing his city. We left with a much deeper appreciation for Lisbon and are already looking forward to joining another one of his tours. Highly recommended!

Great overview of history of Lisbon and Portugal

Great way to get a feel for one of the oldest parts of Lisbon. Our guide did a great job not just pointing out some notable sites, but also giving a helpful and informative overview of the history of Lisbon, and of Portugal. We also stopped at some lovely overlook points. We didn't really end up where the description suggested we would, so keep that in mind if you're planning to meet up with someone afterwards. The guides work for tips, so bring some cash. We're glad we did it!

Operator response

Thank you for the lovely review Brad. We're glad you've enjoyed our tour so much. Best regards from Hi Lisbon Walking Tours Team!
