My Lisbon Tours

My Lisbon Tours is a small, boutique tour operation offering private, personalized experiences through the city. With just 11 reviews but all of them 5 stars, this is a company that prioritizes quality over volume.

For families, the private tour format is the biggest advantage. Unlike large group walking tours where you're one of 30+ people, here the guide focuses entirely on your family. That means adjusting the pace for little legs, incorporating stops at playgrounds when kids need to burn energy, and telling stories pitched at the right level for your children's ages.

Private tours can be customized to cover whatever interests your family most — whether that's the castles and viewpoints of Alfama, the maritime history of Belem, or a food-focused walk through the city's best pastry shops and markets. The guides are local and know the city at a level that larger companies can't match.

The trade-off is price. Private tours cost more than group options, typically 150-350 EUR depending on duration and content. But for families with toddlers or children with specific needs, the flexibility is worth the premium. No rushing to keep up, no straining to hear over a crowd, no guilt about asking the guide to slow down.

Tour lengths are flexible, usually 2-4 hours. For families with young children, a 2-hour tour in the morning is ideal. Older kids can handle the full half-day experience. The guides can incorporate transportation (taxi, tram) for sections that would be too tiring to walk.

Based near Avenida Oscar Monteiro Torres, they serve all areas of Lisbon and can arrange pickup from your hotel.
