One of the must fun free walking tours I've had! The guide was amazing and really helpful and talked about the history of Lisbon in such a fun and entertaining way, it was never boring to listen to it! During the 2 hours we had many stops in the most amazing places and viewpoints and learned something new about each of one of them. The guide was clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about the city and made sure to make everyone feel included! Super nice and super worth it! Especially if it's your first days in Lisbon - it was the best way for me to learn about the city and find out about all the best spots there. Highly recommend!
