This tour is a spicy Portugal history tour, where we will touch some points of local timeline with a special focus towards mysterious figure of Marques de Pombal (the 'Enlightened despot' during whose reign happened Lisbon's Earthquake), his undergrounds, and ties with local freemasonry. What was his 'hidden knowledge' ? Did he sell out his soul to the devil? Or was a worker of good? Take this tour and stroll around mysterious heart of Lisbon, which was decision making center of the Empire. Ever heard of Knights Templars? Jesuits? How all this fits-in together in Lisbon in this story?.. Our goal is to enveil curtain of superficial facts, and connect the dots between different layers of facts and points of view! Looking forward to see you on this tour! The tour is "customizable" meaning is possible modify slightly the route and share more stories, if guests wish (that is why duration time is specified as "approximate 3" hours)

I loved learning about the subtext to the history of Lisboa. What an amazing experience if you want to know the truth about how Lisboa came to power and who truly holds the keys

This was legitimately one of the best tours I have ever been one. If you are in Lisboa, you need to take the time for this tour. Slava was so informative, and you could tell he was passionate about the topics in discussion. He was also happy to answer any questions, and our conversations felt so easy as we shared a love of investigating. For anyone visiting, please seize the opportunity to take this tour, I promise you will not regret it.
