Very long day with lots of walking, but very interesting. Bring Euro coins for bathrooms. Tour ends during rush hour in a part of town where it may be difficult to get transportation back to your hotel. Have a plan in place. Bring rain gear - it started raining on us in the afternoon, and theres no place to get out of the rain.

Alicia was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, personable, and offered thoughtful details about how each person could have a comprehensive & unique personalized experience. The history, food, and locations selected were excellent. It was quite a workout (lots of walking), but worth it. Feel like we received a thorough & comprehensive Lisbon cultural experience. Highly recommended!

We throughly enjoyed our day in Lisbon! Our guide, Rita, was extremely knowledgeable and made an 8 hour day fly by. We have been on previous walks tours in the past and this tour met their standard of an excellent and enlightening experience. There is of course a lot of walking but we also took a boat tour of the harbor which gives you a nice view of Lisbon as a whole. We always appreciate skipping the lines, and the line for the Monastery and to grab the custard pastries would have taken several hours out of our day without Rita knowing other locals and already having purchased tickets. Loved the tour and would highly recommend. The only snafu occurred when Walks accidentally sent us to the incorrect meeting location but they resolved this by paying for our Uber to the new location, discounting our tour and handled everything to our satisfaction, excellent customer service.
