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

What if the Azores were a key piece of a puzzle that revealed the secrets of all of Portugal?

Are you ready to embark on a journey filled with enigmas, stories of love and betrayal, and ancient secrets?

We begin at the Padre Sena Freitas Garden , the first step on this map of hidden keys.
We will explore the heart of Ponta Delgada , deciphering secret messages on facades, streets and monuments.

Did the Templars have anything to do with the discovery of the Azores?
Did witches exist in these lands?
Do pirate treasures still lie hidden in forgotten caves?

We will decipher the hidden symbols of the Mother Church of São Sebastião , and the Rúa dos Mercadores will envelop us with tales of apparitions and legends that still live on in the collective memory of the Açorians.
We will stop in front of the Church of São Pedro to delve into the enigmatic history of the Mary Celeste , the most famous ghost ship in the Atlantic.

The tour culminates at the Ponta Delgada Marina, facing the ocean, where we will address the great unsolved mysteries:
What if the pyramids of Pico and the mythical Atlantis were part of the same hidden map?
What if the Holy Grail , far from continental Europe, rested on these islands?

It's not just a tour. It's an initiation journey.
A puzzle that, when completed, may give you a completely different view of Portugal's history.

The puzzle is waiting for you.
