AN INTRODUCTION TO LISBON (or to farewell what you've missed)
Embark on a unique hate/love tour of Lisbon, where you'll gain deep insights into the city's history, culture, and quirks from passionate locals. This intimate experience, limited to six participants, offers a blend of humor and honesty, revealing both the struggles and joys of Portuguese life as you explore iconic landmarks.

For those who want to overlook and know what is more important about Lisbon, to explore by themselves after. This tour will give you the (in)sights and all the tips about our city. An experience that can be done when you arrive in the city, or when you leave for the airport. We will take you through the streets of Lisbon, the city we were born and raised in, giving you all the tips you need to know to feel at home.
We learned (and still learning) everything in these streets and we will share that knowledge with you. More than taking pictures of the most important monuments, we will make you understand why they are there in the first place, and all the history (good and bad) behind it. We were always interested in Portuguese history and to understand who we are and what led us here now (poor country and not so smart), but still believing we are the best (sometimes).
This is a tour for those who wanna know the city in all perspectives, economical struggles, political jokes, as well the best things about the Portuguese and the city we love. A hate/love tour like we love to call it :D
