A very small tour (just me and one other) with Joao. We had a great 3 hours, walking all over the city, from the downtown, to the cathedral, to the university. I had walked some of these same streets the day before but because of Joao’s knowledge, saw much more and learned much more. Local guides like Joao are why I love a walking tour!

“Excellent tour guide ”

We thought that Joao was the best tour guide of all our free walking tours. He told just right amount of information about the sights to inform but not too much detail. Some political background without being a history lecture. We were concerned about the hill to the castle, but he stopped enough times with interesting facts that you were there before you knew it. He also gave information about other places to see and places to eat. We would highly recommend Joao as a tour guide.
