I have been neglectful in taking so long to write this review, but it's well deserved. We ended up in Lisbon on what was basically an extended layover until our evening flight to Spain. The original plan was that after getting a little sleep, we wanted to see what we could of Lisbon. Unfortunately, the airline lost our luggage, and we didn't get as much sleep as we had hoped. Luckily, we had booked Marta as our guide. After meeting us at our hotel, and explaining what had happened, she immediately offered to call TAP airlines (it helps having a Portuguese speaker) to help try to locate our luggage. Toward the end of our tour she made sure that we were able to stop & pick up some toiletries to get us through until our luggage showed up. More importantly, in the midst of the luggage drama, she took us to see all the highlights of Lisbon (a beautiful place we'd like to see more of) & to try out local food specialties. As a driver/guide, she was able to take us all over the city and was able to explain the historical importance of everything we saw. At the end of the tour, we stopped back at the hotel, grabbed our luggage, and she dropped us off at the airport. We absolutely would take more tours with Marta when we return to Lisbon.

Marta made our brief visit to Lisbon exceptional by helping us to see her city despite the RAIN! LOL She was able to accommodate for the unexpected weather conditions and truly made our visit memorable -- thank you!

Marta was a wonderful guide. I learn Portuguese and asked Marta to conduct the excursion in Portuguese. That was a great combination of history and culture. I learnt a lot about modern Portugal and had an opportunity to practice Portuguese.
