São Jorge Castle towers over Alfama, offering a breathtaking view of beautiful Lisbon. I’ve learned that audio guides aren’t as effective as live guides… but in the case of this castle, it worked well.

The castle was great and audio guide on phone was superb. I actually thought the audio guide in English was much better than other the English speaking tour guides we took. Some guides have a huge accent which make it difficult to understand certain words. Gave the history and background! Loved the upper level of the castle with fabulous views! Totally recommend the castle if you love historical edifices!!!

Not having to waste time waiting in lines is a major advantage. The professionalism and historical knowledge of the guide who accompanied us was another highlight of our visit to São Jorge Castle. The castle itself is very interesting and well worth visiting, especially when guided by a reliable and efficient tour operator. Congratulations and thank you.

A very well-done audio guide that explains, step by step, how the castle was built and why it was impregnable. Everything was perfect.
