Gonzalo - Private Guide in Lisbon
Languages: English
Born in Sintra, UNESCO World Heritage, only 30min distance from Lisbon, always loved to travel and to show my village to visitors and tourists. As a true and native local, i know the place like nobody else.
After some time, started to work as professional in guiding services, providing only PRIVATE TOURS to visitors traveling to Portugal.
Being fluent in English, i would be your best option when visiting Portugal. All the tours can be personalized, there are no fixed itineraries to my guests, always flexible.
Having permission from the Portuguese Government to take visitors inside monuments and attractions, I will help you visit the most important attractions and avoid crowded places and long queues.
Can provide always pick-up and drop-off at your hotel, ship cruise terminal or Lisbon Airport.
In the 19th century, Sintra became the first centre of European Romantic architecture. Richard Strauss, the famous composer once said about Sintra: "Today is the happiest day of my life. I know Italy, Sicily, Greece and Egypt, and I have never seen anything, anything, to match the Pena. It is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.
This is the true Garden of Klingsor and there, up above, is the Castle of the Holy Grail”.
