If you have come this far ... nice to meet you !. My name is Teresa, I am a historian from Extremadura who, looking for my mission in life, came across the world of tourism a few years ago. The historian became a storyteller and made her work her greatest passion. 8 years ago, Lisbon became my home and its streets paralyzed in time, its aroma of coffee and cream cakes, its charming people and its magic made me fall in love. I want to tell you about its fascinating history, its most hidden secrets and its disturbing curiosities, but above all I want to make you feel Lisbon. Are you ready?

Tour description

In life, it's the stories that truly keep us alive, and not even the best Netflix series could surpass the story of this land.
Historical insights, exciting stories, botany, geology, culture, and gastronomy intertwine in this tour, allowing you to get to know the true Azorean people.
Emotion, feeling and laughter guaranteed.


Our tour will begin at Gonçalo Velho Cabral Square, next to the city gates.
We'll walk along the seawall and talk about the famous anticyclone and the geostrategic importance of the Azores. " Did you know that the Spanish controlled these lands for 60 years?"
We'll arrive at Campo de San Francisco, where you'll see the capital's religious symbols and stroll through gardens that tell us about Azorean culture and the way of life of its inhabitants.
In the romantic Antero de Quental garden, we'll soak up Portuguese saudade , and the Jesuit church awaits us to reveal its mysteries.
We will witness the museum legacy that philanthropist Carlos Machado left to the Azorean people next to the Santo André convent.
We'll admire the famous Portuguese pavement through the streets of the historic center and talk about the irresistible Azorean cuisine.
We'll finish next to the main church of San Sebastián , where we'll give you exclusive discounts on adventure activities and a PDF full of tips, food recommendations, and information written with lots of love.

  • Guided tour with passion and real knowledge.
  • Stories you won't read on Google.
  • Fun, excitement… and saudade included.



Welcome to paradise, travelers!
