I’m Ricardo, a Lisbon local who never gets tired of this city's incredible light, rich history, and, of course, the amazing food. I love uncovering hidden gems—whether it's a family-run tasca with the best seafood or a quiet, off-the-beaten-path spot to soak in Lisbon’s charm. You’ll often find me wandering through Mouraria, Alfama, and Bairro Alto, always on the lookout for great food and untold stories. If you want to experience Lisbon like a true local—eating well, discovering secret corners, and feeling the city’s unique contrasts—I’d love to show you around! Obrigado

Hi, I’m Bruno

Lisbon

In 2018, I moved to Lisbon, and I have loved every minute of it! I work as a Financial Manager, but I also have a part-time job as a Sports Statistician Reporter. Currently, I live in Costa da Caparica, one of the closest beaches to Lisbon. I believe Lisbon is a very special and unique location, with lots of history, old and new, and a very strong cultural identity. I love to explore the city and its narrow streets and find new flavors and new people on each corner. Food and drinks are definitely among the strengths of the city, and I am a big fan of both! Nightlife is also a very relevant aspect of the city. There is nothing better than to explore Bairro Alto or Cais do Sodré, two of the typical neighborhoods of Lisbon, looking for the best jam to dance to or the best place to relax with your friends. There are also big musical, cultural, and sporting events that keep the visitors occupied all the time. I am a big fan of Sporting Clube de Portugal, and I love to attend football matches at the Estádio José Alvalade. The weather is, obviously, one of the big strong points of Lisbon, with lots of breathtaking beaches scattered all around the region, with Costa da Caparica being one of the most famous. I think I can be a very good host because I am an extroverted person, I have a very good general knowledge, I love to teach people the things I know about my country, and I think I can give visitors a different experience and show them things they wouldn't normally see in the common tours around the city. I bet I can find some excellent Instagrammable places for those who are interested!"

Fun fact about me

I love to tell the story of Josephine Baker (who Earnest Hemingway described as "The most fabulous woman who ever lived") performing for three nights in Lisbon during WWII - while working as a spy for the Free French and Americans!

Jaime has been wandering the world in a long journey that has driven him to Lisbon over and over again. A city that has to be discovered step by step, following a river of intoxicating beauty, and listening to the voice of its inhabitants, sometimes wild and fierce, some others, mild and smooth.

Hi, I’m Francisco

Lisbon

I'm Francisco :) I´m a local guide, born and raised in sintra. I heard many legends about mysticism, secrets and sintra stories. Later I joined a group in sintra and deepened my historical knowledge and the Portuguese spiritual tradition linked to the Templars and Cathars. The passion for history comes from my father, a history teacher. Now, I'm responsible for showing the bases of the Gnostic/alchemical ritual in a guided view of Sintra and Quinta-da-Regaleira, and the keeper of the first door to sintra spirituality. "only on the pilgrim's path will you discover a hiden world"

Hi, I’m Mariana

Lisbon

Everywhere I go I will always have a trivia to share or will try to get people into having a bite in a local restaurant or to look at a place in a different angle. I do believe places are made of people crossings and mixes - Lisbon is a tale a of cultures around centuries. Whenever I travel, I try to make sure I get to know locals and interact with them, so it would be my pleasure to show "my places" to someone who doesn't know Portugal as I do. At the present moment, I work as a documentary photographer for one of the parish councils in the city hall, so my main day-to-day functions envolve walking around town photographing events, landscapes and cultural and political gatherings, making my knowledge about Lisbon to grow further.

Pedro was the fourth City host I’ve had. If possible I would give him ten stars. He read all of the requests I had made and then based on that information he carefully added experiences he felt would enhance my visit to Lisbon. I left Lisbon with a much deeper understanding of and appreciation for the people, the city, and their history.

FAQs

Your questions, answered

Are experiences the same as tours?

No. Our experiences are unscripted and designed around you. Instead of following a rigid itinerary, your host will plan a personalized journey that feels natural, immersive, and unique.

What if I don’t know what I want to explore?

That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.

Will I be able to speak to my host beforehand?

Yes. After we match you with your host, we’ll introduce you so you can chat about the plan and make any tweaks before the day.

How do you match me with a host?

We ask a few questions. After you book, you’ll fill out a short questionnaire about your interests and travel style. We’ll then match you with the best local host to design your experience.

Can I request specific places or types of stops?

Yes! After booking, you will receive a questionnaire where you can highlight must-visit spots and anything else you’d like to include, and your host will craft your experience around them.

Will I know my itinerary in advance?

Yes, you will have the opportunity to chat with your host directly and agree on a plan for the day. However, there’s always room for spontaneity and local surprises!

Can I mix different themes in one experience?

Yes! You can blend food, culture, history, neighborhoods, or even a bit of nightlife if time allows. Just share your interests in the questionnaire, and your host will build the day around them.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.

Can I cancel if my plans change?

Yes. You can cancel for free up to 24 hours before your experience date—no questions asked.
