    Private Tour from Lisbon

    Had a wonderful full day tour with our amazing guide Ricardo . Our private tour started in Lisbon taking in Cacais, Esteril, Cabo da Roca and Sintra. The National Palace was incredible. Highly recommend

    Not worth it Expensive

    This tour was not worth it . While the tour guide was nice and kind , I would not recommend this tour . It was advertised as private tour . The price was not cheap for two We were not able to go to the sights a mentioned in the tour . Although it was mentioned tickets were not included. We were willing to pay But unfortunately there was no tickets The Tour operator should have at least gotten us a ticket We had to waste an hour to line up to get ticket to Bolsa Palace This is total waste of time and money Would recommend go to Porto on your own and get tickets to the sights or get an uber . It is unfortunate they would charge this much or this tour

    Response from the operator: HI, We are sorry that you did not enjoy our tour. As it says and it's true, the trip is long, 320 km to go and another 320 km to come, it's a 12/13 hour trip, so the price of the trip has to cover all these costs. We also like that you valued the quality of our Guide. As for the rest of the review, I must remember that in the tour description it is mentioned that entrance tickets are not included and it is also mentioned that the route does not include a visit to the interior of the monuments visited. I hope that on the next opportunity to visit Portugal you will go on tours with Selection Tours again so you can check and confirm the quality of our services. Regards Diogo

    Porto is the best city in Portugal!

    We left from Lisbon, which is a 3 hr drive, but it wasn’t bad at all. The van was nice and climate controlled. Porto is a wonderful city, rich with culture and scenic views. We went to the top of Torre dos Clerigos, amazing view of the city. Our guide recommended an excellent restaurant with spectacular views of the river walk. We enjoyed a 50 minute boat ride up/down the river. Then we ended the tour walking the town and capped it with gelato ice cream. We took a nap on the drive back. Our guide, Joao, was awesome. Very knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and knew exactly where to take us. I highly recommend visiting Porto!!

    Great City, great guide

    Everything we saw was great, especially the train station, the book store, the gondola ride, the tiles on the churches, the view from the bridge, and the view from the tower. Also, Joao made sure that we saw everything that we wanted to see. But 1 day is not really enough to see this wonderful city.

    Porto Private Tour from Lisbon: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.

    How much does Porto Private Tour from Lisbon cost?

    +

    Prices start at €285 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lisbon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Porto Private Tour from Lisbon take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lisbon is not rushed.

    Is Porto Private Tour from Lisbon worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lisbon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Porto Private Tour from Lisbon?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Porto Private Tour from Lisbon suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Porto Private Tour from Lisbon?

    +

    Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lisbon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lisbon and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Porto Private Tour from Lisbon start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lisbon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Lisbon?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Lisbon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lisbon City Center Tour - The Unmissable Lisbon, Sintra Private Trip from Lisbon Customizable Dreamlike Experience, True 4Hour Private Tuk Tuk Tour: Discover Lisbon with a Local!. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Lisbon?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Lisbon?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Porto Private Tour from Lisbon?

    +

    Included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; Local guide; Private tour; Driver/guide; and Surcharges on fuel. Not included: Food and drinks; and Entrance fees. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Porto Private Tour from Lisbon include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 109 listed pickup locations in and around Lisbon. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Porto Private Tour from Lisbon offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Portuguese, English, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Porto Private Tour from Lisbon?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Porto Private Tour from Lisbon wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    What happens to Porto Private Tour from Lisbon if the weather is bad?
