Daniel M.

Hi, my name is Daniel.

I was born in 1982 and had the opportunity to grow up across Germany, Spain, and South America, which gave me a diverse cultural perspective from an early age. I trained in the hospitality industry and have also worked closely with autistic children, experiences that have deeply shaped my values.

Six years ago, I moved to Lisbon and fell in love with the city—its culture, its history, and its unique atmosphere. Since then, I have dedicated myself to studying and exploring it in depth, becoming a true expert through passion and self-learning.

I strongly believe in equality and tolerance, and I aim to create inclusive experiences where everyone feels welcome. I’m not your average tour guide—I’ll take you on an adventure worthy of Indiana Jones, full of stories, hidden gems, and unforgettable moments.

My tour style is all about creating a true Lisbon journey—combining the city’s best-known highlights with its hidden gems. I share unique insights, including stories connected to the Knights Templar, adding depth and mystery to the experience.

For those looking for something different, I offer old-school bike tours using my road bikes, bringing a sense of freedom and adventure to exploring the city.

With my background in photography and formal training, I can guide you to the most beautiful spots and help you capture unforgettable moments along the way.

As a vegan, I know the best vegan spots all around Lisbon, but I can also recommend excellent traditional restaurants. I’m also familiar with the city’s gay bars and the places to be if you want to explore Lisbon’s vibrant nightlife.

Expect something a little spicy—an experience with a touch of Indiana Jones: adventurous, surprising, and full of stories you won’t hear anywhere else.

Guiding, for me, is about more than showing a city—it’s about creating a space where people feel free, safe, and themselves. Equality and tolerance have always been central to who I am, shaped by my international background and life experiences.

I enjoy guiding LGBTQ+ travelers because I understand how important it is to feel welcomed when discovering a new place. Lisbon has a vibrant and open spirit, and I love sharing both its history and its inclusive energy.

My goal is simple: to offer an experience where you can relax, explore, and enjoy the city without judgment—just as you are.
