Portuguese In the beginning, my family and I didn't have full confidence in this service because of the price. Now I can say it's even cheap. The experience is incredible, you can see streets you would never see if it weren't for the tuk-tuk, hidden street art that is a great treasure of the city, and all the stops chosen on the tour are unmissable. Not only is what you see spectacular, but the guide (José) makes the trip unique: interesting facts, he accompanies you to see inside the places he stops at and is also an exceptional person with whom you have a lot of fun, You become his colleague in a minute and that made all of us feel comfortable and the immersion in the Alfama neighborhood was the best thing that could happen on our visit to Lisbon. I consider it a must, really. If you are thinking of taking a tuk-tuk tour, look for it. If, like us, you weren't thinking about it, do it because there is nothing like it. --------------------------------- Spanish At first, my family and I didn't have full confidence in this service because of the price.

A very cool alternative to Tram 28. Jose drove us around with lots of music, good spirits, and even more information about many sights. An absolutely recommended experience and worth every cent. Thanks for the excellent time, José!!
