My offer of “Private Guided Tours in Lisbon” (3 Walking Tours + 3 Tuk Tuk Tours) is aimed at people who want to get to know Lisbon with fully personalized support from the first contact to the completion of the tour.
All details, such as the time and duration of the tour, the pick-up location (for example your hotel in the center of Lisbon or the cruise ship terminal) can be fine tuned in order to provide you with the best possible experience.
These tours are strictly private, preferably, in small groups. Like others, include historical details and context but the difference are the small nuances, the details, the fun facts and the hidden gems.
Walking Tours
This offer includes 3 Walking Tours (“Best_of_Lisbon“, “Lisbon&StreetArt” and “Boots&Wheels“).
Tour 1 – Walking Tour “Best of Lisbon”
Tour 1 is recommended for those who want to have a global view of the center of Lisbon. Want to do a sightseeing in Lisbon? Want to get a first impression of the city? Do you want to know where the main neighborhoods are and how to “navigate” between them?
The areas covered are the historic neighborhoods of Lisbon: Alfama, Baixa and Chiado. In Alfama, where Lisbon was born, it is possible to find traces of 30 centuries of human occupation. Baixa is the flat neighborhood of Lisbon, destroyed in the earthquake and tsunami of 1755 and subsequently rebuilt. Chiado is sophisticated Lisbon, shaped during the Roaring Twenties.

Tour 3 – Private Guided Tour “Boots & Wheels“
Tour 3 has everything that Tour 1 has, plus the tour in Belém. In Belém we visit the UNESCO monuments (Tower and Monastery). The Belém segment is done by tuk tuk. If you have children (>6 years old) they will love this option. This tour aims for those who are going to be in Lisbon for a short period of time or for those who want to have an overview of the city on the first day, and then explore the city at their own pace.
The “boots&wheels” option allows you to combine the best of both worlds, the walking tour in the neighborhoods of Alfama, Baixa and Chiado and the tuk tuk tour allows you to travel to Belem.
Duration: 3h walking (Lisbon)+ 2h tuk tuk (Belem)
Meeting Point : Viewpoint Portas do Sol, by Saint Vincent’s statue or your Hotel in Central Lisbon or Cruise Ship Terminal
Ending Point : Any place of your convenience in Belem or central Lisbon

Tour 4 is aimed at those who want to get to know the historic neighborhoods of central Lisbon (Alfama, Mouraria, Graça, Baixa, Chiado and Bairro Alto) but feel intimidated by the idea of so many ups and downs and want the comfort of a tuk tuk.
Unlike tour 2, which allows greater immersion in Lisbon’s neighborhoods (because it is done on foot), tour 4 focuses more on Lisbon’s viewpoints, with stops in Santa Luzia, São Pedro de Alcântara and Senhora do Monte.
This tour places a special emphasis on street art works in Graça.

The world behind “O Tuk do Joao”
I am a former engineer with a 9 to 5 office job. For about 30 years, when I occasionally had family and friends in town, I would take my private car and show them around the city, which helped me achieve a knowledge very solid about the neighborhoods and history of Lisbon. When I finally had the opportunity to retire, I thought about transforming those private moments with family and friends into a profitable activity.
Then I drove tuk tuks with Tugatours during 5 years and loved every moment of it. The opinions received from customers were very motivating, representing enormous support and encouragement. I finally felt the need to add walking tours to my Lisbon Tours offer and I feel comfortable with both options.

With you in mind, a What do do section was created, about monuments, attractions, street art, museums, tradition, in short, about what you shouldn’t miss during the days you’re with us.
For those who have already had the opportunity to visit Lisbon, I hope that this section brings back good memories and the desire to return soon!
