Hello there! Thank you for curiosity and your time to arrive on this page. My name is Slava and I offer walking tours in Lisbon , which are of my authorship - you won't hear me reproducing plain facts you can find on wikipedia's page, I tell story interconnecting personalities and events giving angles which remain in the shadows, so that you can use imagination and decide for yourself how the past events impacted our present.
I have arrived to Portugal more than a decade ago, and decided to make a shift in my live, discovering cultures totally out of my birthplace context ( I come from the extreme opposite side of Europe, from Kyiv, Ukraine ). I have had an engineering carreer in IT but didn't stop there and persisted on discovering my truer passion - which I encountered in guiding. So far have experience guiding not only in Lisbon, but in Bergen ( Norway ), and Brussels ( Belgium ).
I specialize on private tours and small size group tours (up to 15 people). For your needs I fluently speak 5 languages - so our walk can be in English, Portuguese, Spanish, Russian or Ukrainian!
