Ottima esperienza, Marti molto preparata e simpatica ci ha dato una spiegazione esauriente e dei consigli molto utili per il soggiorno. Con lei abbiamo fatto anche il free tour di Alfama a mio avviso il più caratteristico e bello della città ma che si può apprezzare solo grazie ad una brava guida. Grazie Translate this opinion into English.

A great experience. Marti was very knowledgeable and friendly, and gave us a thorough explanation and very helpful tips for our stay. We also took the free tour of Alfama with her, which I think is the most characteristic and beautiful in the city, but which can only be appreciated with a good guide. Thank you. Opinion translated.

Abbiamo fatto un tour molto bello Laura è stata una guida perfetta ha saputo catturarci con la curiosità di sapere....il quartiere di Belem bello peccato che la chiesa fosse chiusa..... Chissà magari saprà un pretesto per tornare. Grazie di tutto! Translate this opinion into English.

We had a wonderful tour. Laura was a perfect guide, she knew how to capture our curiosity and learn more about the Belem neighborhood. It's a shame the church was closed. Who knows, maybe she'll find a reason to come back. Thanks for everything! Opinion translated. Show original.

Oggi un tour nel quartiere di Belem che ci ha trasportati nel corso della storia in modo coinvolgente grazie ad Elvira che è una guida molto simpatica, preparata ed empatica . Ha soddisfatto ogni nostra curiosità e il tempo è volato. Grazie speriamo di trovarti ancora come compagna di viaggio.

Ho già avuto modo di esprimere il ns apprezzamento per Elvira in seguito al tour di Lisbona ..Devo dire che Elvira nn solo si e ripetuta nel tour di Belem ma si è anche superata ..persona davvero colta preparata coinvolgente appassionata...insomma assolutamente da chiamare nel caso di ritorno a Lisbona Translate this opinion into English.

I have already had the opportunity to express our appreciation for Elvira following the Lisbon tour. I must say that Elvira not only repeated herself in the Belem tour but also outdid herself. A truly cultured, prepared, engaging and passionate person... in short, absolutely worth calling if you return to Lisbon. Opinion translated. Show original.

Nuestra experiencia con Kike fue muy agradable, es un guía muy apasionado por la historia de Portugal, nos encanta encontrar guías así, para conocer la historia de cada ciudad que visitamos, nos encantó su forma de explicar y su buen humor. Sin duda lo recomiendo para este y otros tours guiados por Lisboa. Translate this opinion into English.

Our experience with Kike was very pleasant. He's a guide with a deep passion for Portuguese history. We love meeting guides like this, allowing us to learn about the history of each city we visit.

La guía fue excelente y amena, conocía muy bien del tema y la reserva fue muy fácil, solo sugeriría que busque lugares donde los turistas nos podamos sentar porque sus explicaciones fueron super interesantes pero eran extensas, y viajaba con un adulto mayor y es que a veces estar parado es mas cansado que estar caminando. Tambien mas info sobre el punto de reunion. Pusieron "en el parque tal" pero el parque era super extenso, si nos preocupó no estar en el lugar indicado y nos dejaran. Translate this opinion into English.

The guide was excellent and engaging, very knowledgeable about the topic, and booking was very easy. I would only suggest looking for places where tourists can sit because her explanations were super interesting but lengthy, and I was traveling with an older adult, and sometimes standing is more tiring than walking. I also need more information about the meeting point. They said "in such-and-such park," but the park was very large. If we were worried about not being in the right place, they would let us.

Nuesto guía Juan fue excelente. Superó todas nuestras expectativas. Además de demostrar un gran conocimiento histórico, nos sorprendió con muchísimos detalles que nos hubiésemos perdido si ibamos sin guia. Su estilo jocoso y familiar mantuvo a todos atentos. Fue muy bueno integrando a todos los participantes en la discusión, haciendo que la charla fuera muy dinámica . Logró captar la atención de todos en todo momento. Muy muy recomendado.

Our guide, Juan, was excellent. He exceeded all our expectations. In addition to demonstrating a wealth of historical knowledge, he surprised us with many details we would have missed without a guide. His humorous and friendly style kept everyone engaged. He was very good at integrating all the participants into the discussion, making the talk very dynamic. He managed to capture everyone's attention at all times. Highly recommended.

I had a great time on this tour! Claudia was enthusiastic and knowledgeable, and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of history I learned on this tour!! We looked at so many things and even stopped by Pastéis de Belém for a lovely treat, which you usually don't get to do on a walking tour. The tour was structured and informative and Claudia was helpful in answering any questions, and gave us many great suggestions as to where to go and places to eat! Can't recommend Claudia enough!

Fermo restando che Belem merita una visita perché davvero molto bella, mi aspettavo di più dalla guida Raffaele: forse un po' troppo veloce nell' esporre le informazioni e questo purtroppo credo abbia influenzato il risultato finale della visita. Le nozioni ci sono state fornite anche in grande quantità ma forse a mio parere ne ha perso di efficacia.

Le nostre guide sono professionisti che si impegnano a trasmettere i contenuti del tour con il massimo rigore e dinamismo possibile. Ci dispiace che in questo caso non sia stato come ti aspettavi.

Muy entretenida la actividad. Pero fue todo mérito de Irene, nuestra guía. Belem no tiene prácticamente nada, quitando el Monasterio, la torre, que tuvimos la mala suerte de no poder verla porque estaba entera tapada por andamios, un monumento y el puente con el Cristo rey al fondo, que quedan lejos del tour y no se pasa por allí. Sin embargo Irene hizo que las dos horas pasaran rápido y de forma divertida por como nos explicó toda la historia de los diversos lugares por los que pasábamos. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was very entertaining. But it was entirely thanks to Irene, our guide. Belem has practically nothing to offer, except for the Monastery, the tower, which we were unlucky enough not to be able to see because it was completely covered by scaffolding, a monument, and the bridge with Christ the King in the background, which are far from the tour and not accessible. However, Irene made the two hours pass quickly and in a fun way, as she explained the history of the various places we passed. Opinion translated. Show original.

Overall a good tour with different historical context. Martina analyzed many significant moments in Portugal's history and we tried the Pasteis de Belem but we didn't visit all the sites of the tour, like Pabellón Sala Thai, Beco do Chão Salgado and Belem Tower as the last is covered. Martina gave almost no info about the tower and the tour ended 30min earlier. For this reason I give 4/5 as I believe we should have visited all the sites descripted in other booking sites.

Realicé el tour de Belém. Marta fue una excelente guía. La información y consejos que brindó me permitieron disfrutar de Belém con mucha mayor profundidad que de no haber tomado el tour. Supo contestar mis preguntas con total claridad y ayudarme a entender mejor la historia del lugar. Definitivamente una experiencia enriquecedora. Translate this opinion into English.

I took the Belém tour. Marta was an excellent guide. The information and advice she provided allowed me to enjoy Belém much more deeply than if I hadn't taken the tour. She was able to answer my questions clearly and help me better understand the history of the place. It was definitely an enriching experience. Opinion translated. Show original.
