Discover Portugal With a Local Guide

My name is Michal Tal, and I am a registered tour guide in Portugal (RNAAT nº 76/2026).
I offer private tours, in English or Hebrew, for small groups (1–4 participants) in Sintra, Lisbon, Belém & Ajuda district, Óbidos, Buddha Eden, Mafra, Ericeira, Fátima, Batalha and Nazaré.

Sintra:

Sintra is a picturesque town nestled in the heart of a protected nature reserve, on the forested hills of the Serra de Sintra in Portugal. Once a summer retreat for Portuguese nobility, it is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site that attracts visitors from all over the world.
The area is home to magnificent palaces, lush gardens, and historic landmarks, all surrounded by enchanting woodland. Beyond the town itself, the Sintra region offers charming resort towns, traditional fishing villages, dramatic ocean‑side cliffs, and dense forests stretching across the Serra de Sintra.

Exploring Sintra independently can be challenging, as the area includes many different sites, hidden paths, and varied routes that aren’t always intuitive for visitors. A local guide who truly knows the region can help you plan your day efficiently, save valuable time, avoid unnecessary expenses on tuk‑tuks, taxis, or ride‑shares, and ensure you don’t miss the places that are genuinely worth seeing. With the right guidance, your visit becomes smoother, easier, and far more enjoyable.

Lisbon:

In addition to Sintra, I also offer full‑day private tours in Lisbon and in Belém & Ajuda, perfect for travelers who want to experience the very best of Portugal’s capital.
Together, we explore Lisbon’s historic neighborhoods, iconic viewpoints, grand squares, and vibrant riverside areas — all at your own pace and fully tailored to your wishes.
 

Other day tours:

I also offer private day trips to Óbidos, Buddha Eden, Mafra, Ericeira, Fátima, Batalha and Nazaré — perfect for travelers who want to discover more of Portugal.
