Fantastic tour of Óbidos - We had a great tour with Ivo, who is a wonderful guide with a wealth of information. Ivo is clearly passionate about the history of Óbidos and the surrounding areas, and presents information in an engaging, more conversational manner rather than just reciting facts. There were only four customers on our tour, which was conducive to us getting to know a bit about Ivo personally, as he did about us. We had taken the bus from Lisbon to Óbidos for the tour, and Ivo went above-and-beyond to ensure we went to the correct bus stop for our return trip. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Óbidos, Ivo, and this tour to anyone who will be in the area.

Great tour and tour guide - highly recommended - Joao-Pedro was an excellent guide - we can’t recommend him highly enough. He was able to tell us all about Óbidos, both its rich ancient history and fascinating modern context, and was able to answer all the questions we had. It was great to hear all about the town and the area from a local. His English is perfect and he was very accommodating to our needs.
