5.00Our guide was Andriy Voyevoda, who sent a message ahead of the date of our tour with detailed instructions about the meeting location, contact information and a photo so we could recognize him. We were the only two on the tour so we had a personalized experience. The tour started in the square outside the Church of St. Anthony and then we went inside the church. Andriy’s narrative and depth of knowledge about every place we stopped was exceptional. We visited a number of interesting locations in the Alfama neighborhood, including the Se Cathedral, the ruins of the Roman theater, and an overlook of the harbor where we stopped for a break with coffee at a little cafe there. We continued to hear about the history of the location as we made our way up to the castle. We had the Lisboa card so Andriy handled our entrance to the castle and grounds for free. Once inside the castle grounds, we had a fascinating tour of all the locations along with a narrative of the ways that castles were defended and how attackers could succeed in taking back a castle that was held by enemies. The tour was listed as lasting 3 hours, but Andriy stayed with us for an extra 40 minutes as we asked questions and learned about the history of the place. He pointed out the castle museum and explained how to get back to the starting point before taking his leave. This tour far exceeded our expectations in so many ways. Andriy provided a wealth of knowledge, anecdotes, geographical insights, religious and historical references and so much more. He was most considerate, pointing out where we needed to watch our step, asking about whether we needed a break, etc. Simply superb.
