The guide was excellent. Not only did he do a great job, but he went ahead with the tour when there was only one person. The tour started at Amoreiras Garden and went through Lisbon, down to the coast. He answered all my questions, including the politics that I had asked him. We had lunch at a nice restaurant with very good seafood. I would certainly recommend this tour.

I had the pleasure to do 3 tours with Rui. We spent a full day doing the Castle of Saint-GeorgeTour in the morning and the Alfama Tour in the afternoon. Rui is one of the best guide that I have ever had. I travel a lot and I like do do tours when I visit a city. This is the first time that I take the time to rate a guide. However, Rui what so good, knowledgeable , well educated and he knows Lisbon, the history, the street Art and the people living in Alfama ( he lives three streets from Alfama ). We had lunch together in a very good restaurant in Alfama (he is a regular of that little spot ).
He was so good that I booked a third tour with him ( the Belém Tour ) .The company
My Lisbon Tours is owned by Rui and he is dedicated to provide the best tour in Lisbon. I know this is a rave review but Rui deserve it !
Thank you very much Rui.

This was an excellent trip! I was a bit leery of the all day walking, however Rui magically transported us from one hilltop to the other without us really noticing the hike. There was only one point where he said "Sorry, this steep portion could not be avoided".
All along the way we were magically enthralled by Ruis tales of the sites and cities, including small snippets about graffiti artworks as well.
