My dad and i were spending a few days in lisbon after almost 2 weeks in terceira and i found this private tour. I selected the 3pm time slot. My dad is older and i was looking for an experience that would let us see a lot but not be strenuous. Dad is in good shape, but no need to push ya know? (Tuk tuks would have been a disaster for his back) Vasco picked us up at our hotel. I selected the English tour but dad and I both speak Portuguese amd English (portuguese is dad's native language) and Vasco went between both easily as he was speaking with us. More portuguese when speaking with dad, more English with me which I greatly appreciated. He took us around to all the sights and his knowledge of history and the city was amazing! (I came home and ordered books on portugal and lisbon's history based on what he discussed) As he spoke with us and got to know us he pointed out things he thought we would find interesting and nothing felt rushed. After the tour my dad said that out of everything we did during our trip, our day with Vasco was his favorite. I don't think there can be higher praise than that!
