A great way to see the city The tour was great. We learned so much and our tour guide, Pedro, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and made sure we kept to the right pace for us all - but encouraged us up the hills! A great way to find out more about the city. Thanks Pedro!

Fantastic run tour experience We really enjoyed this run. It's was total of 2hrs with about 1.15hrs of easy running. Great way to orientate, see the main sights and get some exercise. Pace was perfect and led by us. Lots of hills but plenty of time to stop and catch breathe and see views. Pedro our guide was on time picking us up and sent us photos after. 5 star treatment. Highly recommend

A great intro to a fine city Very enjoyable way to be introduced to a new city. Nuno was our guide - a thoroughly hospitable and entertaining companion on a 10k run. Paced perfectly to allow conversation, observation and some great site seeing. Very strongly recommended.

Love this!! Nuno picked me up from my hotel in West Lisbon and we ran along the river, through the city centre & back. Lots of lovely chatting about the city and running and life. This is a great way to see the city and experience running on holiday. Definitely recommend! Five stars!!

A great introduction to Lisbon! This was my first time doing a running tour and it was so much fun! Pedro was really considerate of our pace and we stopped often to see all the sights. By the end I was able to grasp all of the major neighborhoods in the city and pick out which areas we wanted to go back to later. Couldn’t recommend enough if you’re a runner

Early bird gets the [Lisbon] worm! Great way to see the city without the crowds, exercise and get your bearings. The running guide, Nuno, met me at the hotel. He was very friendly. A morning running tour is a wonderful way to see the city at a peaceful, quiet time of day without the crowds. It’s a great way for me to get my bearings. We covered all the main areas. Nuno was patient when I wanted to take pictures or walk up hills, since Lisbon is very hilly. He took great pictures and shared them with me afterwards. He also brought a bottle of water. He shared it wresting facts and history about the city. It was a fun tour!
