Enjoyable, great to learn the Portuguese history - Booked with Freetour.com I was apprehensive about bringing an 11 and 13 yr old on a walking tour, was afraid they'd be bored, but Luis was excellent and every so often dropped in a few titbits that kept the boys interested. Luis has extensive knowledge and shared it passionately. A pleasurable couple of hours in Belém.

A wonderful guide and a very interesting tour - We had a great tour with Beatriz! Despite a period of absolutely wicked wind and rain, she was a trooper and still led a fun and informative tour of Belém. We learned a lot about the area that we wouldn't have if we'd explored on our own, and would certainly recommend this to others.

Beautiful Belem - The starting point was easy to find and Sara easy to spot with her orange umbrella. Sara is a friendly and fun lady who is great at what she does. Hugely informative and really entertaining. She clearly has a head full of history and laces her tours with fun facts to bring the places alive and keep things really interesting. Belem is a very beautiful place full of amazing statues and buildings that Sara bought to life and gave great texture and colour to. We would thoroughly recommend this tour and particularly a tour with Sara. Thank you!!

Explorers galore! - Jose Tenorio was an excellent guide; in spite of the intense heat he has managed to make the Belem story extremely interesting. An attractive combination of history, adventure stories, and amusing anecdotes. Once you have done the basic Lisbon city tour, this is clearly an essential add-on. Highly recommended.
