Our Story

The Beginning

Portugal Guided Tours began with a simple observation: tourists were missing the real Portugal. While visitors flocked to major attractions, they often left without experiencing the authentic culture, traditions, and places that make our country truly special.

Our Growth

Founded by a group of friends with a shared passion for Portuguese heritage and hospitality, our company started with just two tours in Lisbon. As word spread about our personalized approach and genuine local experiences, we expanded to cover more regions while maintaining our commitment to small groups and authentic encounters.

Today

Today, we're proud to have welcomed thousands of visitors from across the globe, helping them discover the Portugal we know and love – from iconic landmarks to the secret spots where locals gather.
