One of the best tours we have went on. Alex made the tour a fun experience and a great adventure. I would recommend him and this company for any tour you are looking to book when coming here or any tours they provide.
This summer, our family fell in love with Portugal and the reason for that was because of the amazing trip that we had guided by our tour guide, Alex. We spent 1 .5 days with Alex and we truly had an incredible experience. He is extremely knowledgeable of the history and lifestyle in Portugal and showed us the most incredible places, including Pena Palace, Caiscais, Cabo de Roca and all around the beautiful city of Lisbon. He tailored our trip to ensure that our children were engaged and had fun. He made all of the history very relatable and something that the whole family enjoyed. We truly cannot wait to return to Portugal and see more of the country with Alex as our guide. To anybody looking to travel to Portugal, I would recommend Alex Alexander 100%.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was an absolute joy spending 1.5 days with your wonderful family exploring Pena Palace, Cascais, Cabo da Roca, and the beautiful streets of Lisbon. I'm so glad the kids stayed engaged and that everyone enjoyed the history and stories—making the experience relatable for all ages is something I truly love doing. Knowing that your family fell in love with Portugal and that I could contribute to that experience is incredibly rewarding. I can't wait to welcome you all back for more adventures! Thank you for your 100% recommendation! Warm regards, Alex
Tons of local knowledge & adjusted to our requests (where's the best coffee) on the fly. Great humour too!
Thank you for your kind review! It was a pleasure spending the day with you exploring Sintra, Pena Palace, and Cascais. I'm so glad you enjoyed the local insights and that we could adjust on the fly—finding that perfect coffee is always a priority! And I'm happy the humor made the experience even more enjoyable. Thank you for your recommendation, and I hope to welcome you back to Portugal someday! Warm regards, Alex
When looking for a private tour I did a lot of research and chose Alex. It was a great choice. We did two separate days with him. A tour to Pena Palace, Sintra and Cascais for our wedding anniversary and then my niece joined us for just the weekend so we did a Lisbon day to maximise her time with us. Both days were fantastic and I enjoyed Alex’s style and his reading of how much information we wanted versus just reciting the facts. Highly recommended for both experiences.
Hi Barrie and A. Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure spending two special days with you—first celebrating your wedding anniversary, and then welcoming your niece for a Lisbon highlight tour. I'm so glad you appreciated my approach to sharing information in a way that felt just right for you. Tailoring the experience to your group's energy and interests is something I always strive for, and knowing that both days were fantastic means the world to me. Thank you for your thoughtful recommendation—it was an honor to be part of your family's time in Portugal! Warm regards, Alex

Alexander Guide alexguide7@gmail.com Alex was referred to us by a friend that had used him twice before. He curated an exclusive tour for us that was 4 days in Lisbon and Sintra and 4 days in and around Porto. He was knowledgeable, interesting and fun to be with. The side trips that he set up were fascinating and his knowledge of the history and the geography were wonderful. He was fun to be with and his English was excellent. My highest recommendation!!

Alex made this day so great! He made it so easy and we got to see and learn about things we wouldn't have been able to. We loved this tour!
Thank you Danielle for your kind words
We had a wonderful day with Alex touring Sintra, Pena Palace and Cascais. He was so informative and we learned so much that day. At the same time, he's funny and pleasant and had all of the logistics timed out perfectly. It was one of the best days of our trip, and we wish we had him along with us the rest of our travels.
