About this activity

Two journalists who became guides! Private tours that combine history, knowledge, and a personalized experience to discover Portugal.

We started by crossing the Tagus River via the 25 de Abril Bridge, heading towards Cabo Espichel (you can opt for a visit to the José Maria da Fonseca winery, one of the oldest in Portugal). Next, we go to Sesimbra Castle and cross the Arrábida Mountains through its stunning roads and landscapes. After lunch, we visited the Forte de São Filipe, the Castle of Palmela, built in the 8th century, and finished at Cristo Rei, with one of the best views of Lisbon.

Pedro is Portuguese, graduated in social communication, businessman, and lived in England for 10 years. Caio is Brazilian, lives in Lisbon since 2013, and is a journalist with over a decade of experience in television. We have been doing tours since 2019 and free photos of your trip.

Come discover Portugal with us. It will be a pleasure to accompany you.
