We had a fantastic afternoon exploring Lisbon with Afonso! He was an excellent driver and guide, showing us the city’s most beautiful sights, sharing interesting stories about its history, and giving us great recommendations for the rest of our stay. He was friendly, professional, and kept us entertained throughout the tour, annd apparently, cool jokes are included at no extra cost! It was the perfect way to discover so much of Lisbon without having to climb every hill in the city, and our legs were very grateful. We highly recommend starting your visit with Afonso, you will see the best of Lisbon, learn a lot, and have plenty of laughs along the way!

Fantastic tour around Lisbon! David was professional, welcoming and friendly and also shared lots of facts and interesting information as we toured Lisbon on the historic tour. David also provided fantastic restaurant recommendations after the tour was complete - it was really appreciated! The Tuk-Tuk was clean, safe and comfortable and David’s driving was great. I would definitely recommend a tour with David!
David was the best! He was our Tuk Tuk driver for 2 days and was very fun and informative. We learned a lot about Lisbon while having an amazing time. He also made other recommendations that made our stay even better. I highly recommend!
I had an amazing experience on the tuk-tuk tour with David as our guide! From start to finish, the trip was filled with fascinating insights, local charm, and incredible scenery. David’s knowledge of the area, combined with his friendly and engaging personality, made the tour both fun and informative. He went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and tailored the experience to our interests. The tuk-tuk was clean, well-maintained, and a unique way to explore the city. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to see the area from a local's perspective. Thanks, David, for an unforgettable adventure!
We had a great tour with David, he explained a lot about the buildings and the history of Lisbon, we enjoyed it alot. The city comes to life thanks to his story's.
I had an amazing time on the tour in Lisbon! The driver was incredibly knowledgeable, especially about the Cathedral of Lisbon and the breathtaking Lady of the Hill viewpoint. The visit to the flea market was a special highlight, where I got to experience local culture in a unique way. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to explore the city!
My friends and I did the Belem tour with David. It was so fun and a highlight of our time in Lisbon! David was so knowledgable about the area, and gave us a VIP experience to get pastel de natas. It was so fun and I'd highly recommend this time with David for anyone visiting!
We where waiting for our Uber but after seeing the beautiful blue tuk-tuk that just parked next to us and the friendly and warm approach from the driver David we decided to jump on and the tour was just lovely and so informative about the history! The highlight of the tour was the highest viewpoint that is just amazing! Thank you so much once to LisbonMates once again for the amazing tour 🙏❤️
Davide was fantastic. Knowledgeable and friendly and the only person I have met who can answer my mother’s questions! She’s a historian and loved him. Great way to see the city that we would thoroughly recommend.
It was our 4th time in Lisbon and we discovered that we didn't really know Lisbon. It was 1 hour and 30 minutes with good conversation, funny jokes from the driver David and a beautiful view that accompanied us along the way. I'm so happy that we had this experience and now I can say I now Lisbon. (But I wouldn't mind to go again, it was really funny). Thank you Lisbon mates🇵🇹.
Amazing tour! Very good English and excellent knowledge of all the sites! Good price with very helpful recommendations for other things to do and see including food recommendations. Safe driver too. Happy customers from Ireland 🇮🇪 ☘️
Visit more than interesting partly thanks to this magnificent city that is Lisbon but MAINLY thanks to our Guide and driver almost doubled by a history teacher.
For some time I was going to visit Lisbon and the tour with Lisbon Mates was a great choice! I recommend 100%, the boy was very friendly and informative, and in a short time I got to know a little bit of the history of the city at the same time I was able to see different sights. I loved the experience, quite fun!
We had a great time with David! He showed us a beautiful part of the city of Lisbon. My sister and I thank him deeply for this beautiful visit! I recommend.
I was doing time for Lisbon and I noticed in a tuk tuk I headed to him and soon got ready a young boy, very nice to clarify about the service, I was amazed by the value and attention spent made an hour and a half of a very pleasant walk, always with the smile and sympathy of the boy, it was very pleasant in fact I will return
If you are in Lisbon and have little time to visit, or if you have trouble climbing the steep hills of the city, make a guided tour with Lisbon Mates. They are very attentive, extremely competent and friendly. They will show you Lisbon, beautiful corners and viewpoints and will keep good memories and photographs.
I had the opportunity to take this tour with Lisbonmates and it was simply amazing! From the first contact the team proved professional and attentive. Also with a fantastic Guide mixing fun and the culture of Portugal, which made the tour even more enjoyable. I highly recommend!
