This tour was amazing! Ivo is a great guide — very knowledgeable, funny, and kind! He took us to all the must-see spots, and his tours are smaller and more personal than some of the others being offered. Highly recommend!

Really enjoyed our walking tour of Obidos with Ivo, off the beaten path to enjoy the town inside the walls without the cattle call of tour crowds. Ivo is very knowledgeable about Obidos and the surrounding area, full of history, insights, and recommendations. Highly recommended!
