Perfect 2-hr Intro to Lisbon

This was a wonderful opportunity to get to see several neighborhoods in Lisbon. Baltazar was a well-spoken and knowledgeable guide. We stopped at viewpoints and areas of interest and never felt rushed. He also gave good restaurant suggestions and directions on how to get to some of our other destinations on public transit. Thank you, Baltazar!
