About
Founded 2011, Get Lost, Go Local’s concept is to travel and discover Portugal through the eyes of a local. I believe this is the best way of experience our local culture. Take a tour with a local guide and discover all the hidden secret spots of Lisbon. When visiting other cities, often we get lost, discovering small places and monuments behind the obvious. So, Get Lost... Go Local!
Lisbon, Portugal

We are a family of 5 who spent 2 days touring with Nuno! Nuno picked us up and gave us an introductory tour of Lisbon. Our favorite part was a stop at Monsato. Nuno loves history, so we learned a lot about Portugal and had a better understanding of our surroundings. We enjoyed trying pastries and seeing his boyhood neighborhood, among other stops to see Lisbon. The next day was the highlight! We spent the day touring some of Sintra and Cascais. Before choosing to tour with Nuno, we were so focused on seeing Sintra that we had not really considered stops nearby. Nuno also included stops in Cascais or Azenhas do Mar. I have to say it was worthwhile! Having a guide, it was nice to let Nuno do the thinking and driving so we could take in the sights! Nuno’s lunch choice near Sintra was a place we would have never discovered on our own. It featured a variety of grilled meats and fries and it really was delicious! I am sure a vegetarian option would be available on request. My husband and teens devoured their lunches… well me too! If you are looking for a guide, I would recommend Nuno. He is a good driver, kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. He enjoys sharing his home country with visitors. Ask him to play you a sampling of Portuguese music in the car. Communicate with him if you have specific places you want to see or if you want him to take a photo for you. We enjoyed our time with Nuno. It was beneficial to have an insider’s perspective on what we were seeing. Then we went back and explored more on our own with some tips from Nuno.

I have NEVER been a tour person and personally didn't understand why people would want to go on tours. Nuno completely changed my outlook. He gave detailed recommendations about where to go based on time of day, busyness, etc that we never would have figured out on our own - this was on days he wasn't even giving us a formal tour mind you! Tours were informative and nuanced, stress free and well organized, and really allowed us to get a good local sense of Portugal. Nuno was wonderful company and incredibly accommodating, we were sad when the tour was over and we had to say goodbye! Don't visit Lisbon without booking a tour with Nuno, you won't regret it :)

Had two days with Nuno they were by far the best days we had. Went with a group of five friends and he was very flexible helping us navigate all of our different desires and interests. Continue to be in communication and give suggestions for restaurants and travel even on the days we were not with him. Very much Taylor is the experience to the individuals present. Any time with Nuno will be guaranteed interesting fun and definitely delicious!

We are two couples traveling together and landed in Lisbon on a cruise ship, for a 1.5 day visit. We were not able to exit the ship until after 1 p.m. on day one and we had to be back aboard by 2:30 p.m. on day two.

Nuno designed and executed two days of touring that felt custom designed for us. We saw Sintra, the coast and several outer suburbs on day one, and hit all of Lisbon's neighborhoods on day two.

Nuno's timing was impeccable. Getting into areas before they were crowded, and taking us on routes less traveled. He provided historical and political perspective throughout our tours, in a way that was informative, but felt unbiased. His knowledge of his city and country, his culture, food, architecture, agriculture, etc., etc., was gripping, educational, and entertaining, while still feeling somehow open and conversational.

We were left feeling that we really got more than our money's worth and that we made a true friend in the process!

Partner and I went on tour with Duarte visiting Sintra and few other points of interest . He was a great tour guide having been raised in the Sintra area and knew all the roads and incredibly knew lots of people along the journey. He was a very knowledgeable guide and very interactive with group. He also helped an older person on trip making sure she was fine. Duarte if you read this I wonder if you have considered some review of the day as we did a fair bit of driving and waited around a bit at different places (2 hours at lunch spot probably 30 mins too long although delicious and inexpensive) although appreciated there were roads closed due to fire risk . Anyway great guide and seen some great places wouldn’t have otherwise.

Hi there, dear unknown traveler from Down Under. First I would like to thank you for your review, but I’m afraid that you’re reviewing the wrong tour company. My name’s Nuno and although it’s a very common name, I’m the only Nuno around and my company it’s a one man band. In fact, sometimes I miss having an employee to boss around, but that would never happen. I’m like Duarte. I like to take care of the others, like he did with the older person. You know, I would love to meet Duarte, he seems a nice guy and I’m sure he was careful when showing Sintra under a heat wave with roads closed... By the way, 2 hours for a good lunch seems familiar. Im fine with that. Our food is outstanding and underrated. I love food. Now, I would kindly request you to delete this and rate the company who took you on that glorious day. And please, send a big hug to Duarte, he’s doing a fantastic job! Please give him 5 stars - You only love once! All the best, Nuno Tour Guide / Back office / Secretary / HR & Promotion Oh, and owner too at Get Lost Go Local

My husband and I just returned from 8 wonderful days in Portugal. The highlight of our trip was the day spent with Nuno. From coordinating our plan prior to meeting, to planning an itinerary that hit every note: history, food, landscape, lore, nature, Nuno was amazing. His knowledge of Lisbon and the surrounding areas was astounding, and his love and enthusiasm for his country made our conversations engaging and enjoyable. He was flexible regarding our preferences and his easy nature made it feel as though we were old friends.
We highly recommend Nuno!

We had a wonderful walking tour with Nuno through the historic district of Lisbon. We met some charming local residents of the neighborhood and had a great taste of the cuisine and culture. Nuno also sprinkled in plenty of history and storytelling. Over the course of a few hours we saw numerous sites, establishments and festivities ongoing in the area, and Nuno provided a great overview of all of these. We would absolutely book this tour again and couldn't imagine a better activity to start off our three days in Lisbon! Nuno even continued to message us with friendly chat well after we parted ways, which to me showed a true caring for his guests that is uncommon even in the best of city guides.

We spent the afternoon tasting Lisbon like a local with Nuno’s guidance. It was great fun and delicious! He was knowledgeable, passionate about his city and very friendly. He gave us great ideas for the remainder of our stay and actually followed up with us the next day. If you are coming to Lisbon, call Nuno - he will make your stay even better!

We hired Nuno our first day, in Lisbon, and our last day, in Sintra. He was so enthusiastic showing us his city, and the tour is an ideal crash-course in the history and culture of this gorgeously overwhelming part of the world. Everything you will read here about Nuno’s personable attitude, depth of knowledge and overall warmth is spot-on. Just an authentic, curious and lovely human being we feel so fortunate to have spent time with. Worth every penny and more. Obrigada!
