Rui was a wonderful guide. We took the 3 hour tour on our first morning in Lisbon. Rui gave us both an historical perspective of the city and an informative and very interesting tour of 3 of Lisbon’s central neighbourhoods; Barrio Alto, Chiado and Baixa. He was incredibly personable and knowledgeable. His passion for Lisbon was infectious, and after our tour we quickly oriented ourselves in this beautiful city. I can highly recommend Rui as your guide. Thank you so much.
