The tour covered a good amount of sites but tour guide/driver was mediocre at best. Could not hear her dialogue while driving in van. Did not put much enthusiasm in her explanations.

Our tour guide Victoria was wonderful. He knew the history of Porto and was very nice. I injured myself prior to tour and walked with a cane. He was very attentive to me and I really appreciated it.
Lisbon is a Beautiful city. Excellent guide/ driver.. always polite and and very knowledgeable and easy to understand.
Excellent tour with a knowledgeable and engaging guide. Nice comfortable ride. You will still be walking so wear comfortable shoes. I also recommend eating before the tour. Highly recommend this tour for a more personal experience!
Truly Amazing Private Lisbon Tour Our half-day private tour of Lisbon was truly amazing from beginning to end! 🇵🇹✨ Everything was perfectly organized, and having a private guide made the experience so much more personal and enjoyable. We saw some of the most beautiful and iconic parts of Lisbon while learning so much about the city’s history, culture, and traditions. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and attentive to every detail. We never felt rushed and were able to enjoy the city at our own pace. It was the perfect way to experience Lisbon in just half a day, and we came away with wonderful memories and a much deeper appreciation for this beautiful city. I highly recommend this private tour to anyone visiting Lisbon. Five stars without hesitation! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Alipio our driver+guide was punctual, knowledgable and very communicative. Definitely 10 out of 5 stars for the experience.
Four of us with our private driver. Pleasant driver with lots of background information and interpretation. We were able to get out a few times but this was mostly an overview. (Also learned which soccer club to root for!)
We enjoyed talking with the driver; however, he was a driver and not a tour guide. There was little or no information provided.
Luis was an excellent driver. He took great care of us. He was patient with our pick up and brought us all over the city showi g us all the sites we wanted and giving us history. Our party of 7 really enjoyed his company and are grateful for his tour. Thanks.
This is a nice tour to get an overview of Lisbon from a knowledgeable guide. We saw many of the city’s main attractions while learning the history of each.
Our private tour guide Tiago was fantastic. Extremely knowledgeable about Portuguese history and also modern influences of today. Tailored to what we really wanted to see
Great way to see Lisbon as a first-timer with only a day to spend. Definitely do your research ahead of time to make sure you see everything you want to, but if not, your driver will have plenty of things on the agenda. The luxury car was so much better than a tuktuk!
The perfect tour. The car was luxurious, the driver was wonderfully pleasant and attentive. He tailored the tour to our tastes and gave us wonderful insights to life in Lisbon
Nino was a fantastic guide, super knowledgeable and took us to places we were interested in and also to places he thought we should see. Car was luxurious and comfortable for our half day tour.
Great guide. We were able to not only see the sights but discussed politics, education, history and customs. Guide was so insightful.
Paulo was delighted, well informed and personable. Weather kept us from experiencing some of the sights but we enjoyed our time together.
Excellent experience. Tailor made to suit the individual customer. Was brilliant despite the bad weather conditions
A private tour is the best way to go when one has limited time. Our driver was Andre’ and I must say he was most attentive, quite knowledgeable about the city and sites we were seeing, as well as courteous. It was a delightful time that was well-planned. We felt we had an overview of the entire city!
Tiago was an awesome tour guide! We thoroughly enjoyed our morning touring Lisbon with him. His knowledge of and passion for Portuguese history and culture is infectious. Thank you for a wonderful introduction to your beautiful city!
The tour of the Quelaz National Palace and the Crown jewels were both very interesting. Our guide, Rui, was very informative and friendly. The Belém Tower was under renovation, but it was still nice to have the water view.
We had a wonderful adventure around Lisbon with our personable, knowledgeable and well-organized tour guide Rui. He made sure we were comfortable and well-informed. All in all, it was a great introduction to the city.
Great tour! Ton to see. Traffic slowed us down a little but not too bad. Extra stop at an old church was worth it.
Our guide was very knowledgeable, accommodating to our interests and pace, and very pleasant with a good sense of humor. Of course it is impossible to see Lisbon in a day, but did a great job of providing us with what we wanted to experience (and then some) and offered terrific advice for future visits.
We were expecting a van or a bus. Instead we had a sedan and as we left the meeting point we were informed two more people were coming. This left me squeezed in the back seat between two men. The other couple mentioned they only signed up the day before and paid half the fee we did. Very disappointing.
Wonderful overview of Lisbon. Saw all of the main areas with stops in between. Marco was a great guide.
Very pleasant have a tour of many great sightseeing spots in Lisbon. Our tour guide Joaquin and driver Carlos were very entertaining. They were knowledgeable and helpful. Had a great time.
We thoroughly recommend Paulo who was our guide for a half day tour of Lisbon. He covered everything in great detail with historical knowledge of his Lisbon and drove us around without getting in any traffic jams plus found a parking space within feet of each venue including eating a Pasteis de Nata from the world renowned shop. Always relaxed and never hurried we would definitely use him again when we come back to Lisbon.
Fabulous tour. Excellent guide, so considerate. Wonderful car. Make Lisbon accessible and knowable. Can’t recommend more
Driver had great local knowledge. Very friendly and accommodating our various requests. Would recommend.
Excellent trip. Excellent guide! Great trip to Sintra, palaces, local beach. Wonderful day trip from Lisbon!
This was comfortable in a private and comfortable car with an excellent driver who was personable, professional and friendly as well as very knowledgeable about the sights, history and culture of what we saw. Our guide, Nuno is an All-Star!
Our driver Nuno Miguel was phenomenal. First the car was a newer model very clean with waters. Nuno was professional courteous, knowledgeable, entertaining and a really good driver. We were able to see many of the historical places in the 4 hour tour and he took photos of us. We even had time for a stop to try Pasteis de Belém. His recommendations were great. We will definitely rebook and bring friends!!!
It was an amazing tour! We had only limited time ro dedicate to Lisbon, and our driver Sergio not only was very informative but he was a great company and somebody like family. We hope to come back! Thank you!
Family was in two groups of 8 people. Viator arranged 2 separate vans . Our tour of Lisbon as family was coordinated together. It was great and fun experienced!
Andre was an excellent guide with perfect English. He listened to all of our requests and personalised the tour to our specification. Andre is a local and is very knowledgeable about everything Portugal! Immaculate luxury vehicle. Highly recommended.
Well organized and informative. Easy way to see the sights in the heat. Way better and smoother than a tuk tuk
It was a very good tour. Our driver and guide- Mr. Carlos was very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. We had enough time to see most of the city and enjoyed it. It was a private tour just for our family. The ride was very comfortable. Thanks
Fantastic tour and information I had a guide Tiago Who was wonderful with knowledge, personality and amazing driving skills I would definitely do this tour
Enjoyed our tour immensely. Great overview of Lisbon. Our family of 8 enjoyed this tour. It gave us a great idea of what to revisit the rest of the trip.
Excellent narrative overview of Lisbon and wonderful views of the city from all angles and heights. Minimal walking needed. John, our guide, was knowledgeable and very accommodating of our needs.
Euclides was the best tour guide! Super knowledgeable and kind. Catered tour to our family of four. We were able to see all the major sights.
Was full of information and very friendly would highly recommend him also he was good driving us and spotting out a lot of culture and heritage builings
Lino was our driver/guide and was excellent ! Did a great job of the highlights of Lisbon and history with great recommendations!
Our tour guide was excellent and very knowledgeable. The private tour gave us an opportunity to see new places and learn more about the history.
This was a wonderful, private tour, featuring a native tour guide named Carlos Dos Santos, who added a great deal to our overall experience. Carlos knew every inch of his beautiful city of Lisbon, and he showed us some interesting spots that were off the beaten path. His historical knowledge was amazing, and he spoke fluent English, something that is not always the case on such tours. One highlight was when Carlos took us to a small bakery where a unique custard dessert was invented. Delicious! My wife and I appreciate his funny sense of humor and the extra effort that he made to make our day-long visit to Lisbon so enjoyable.
Great tour - Luis was very friendly and knowledgeable and let us do the tour at our own pace. Would highly recommend
Luis was our driver/guide and he is the one you need to ask for when scheduling this outstanding tour. He knows Lisbon like the back of his hand and is a master at getting thru traffic and safely. Luis is very smart, an easy communicator and provides you with the best 4 hours you will have during your Lisbon visit.
Our tour of Lisbon with Luis was wonderful; he was knowledgeable and friendly and took us to all of the itinerary places but also gave us options if we wanted to do something differently. It was very relaxed and educational, and it was a perfect day. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see the best of Lisbon, and Luis specifically.
Tiago was an amazing tour guide! We highly recommend him to anyone wanting to find the history of Lisbon and Portugal. He took us to all of the spots that were recommended to us. We were able to stop and take photos while he explained the history of each site! We went to Pastéis de Belém and we were able to buy pastels de Nata. If you are looking to see the best of Lisbon and have an accurate and entertaining tour, definitely request Tiago Costa at Gold Compass tours. If there was an option for 6 stars I would select that!
Perfect tour! Got to see lots of Lisbon areas and attractions. Our guide Carlos went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed everything.
