Slava - Tour Guide in Lisbon

Professional tour guide with guiding experience in Norway and Portugal. My tours are based on my own investigation and gathering of facts (widely accepted and not! :P).. Trying to deliver different points of view and awaken curiosity on the past, local traditions and beliefs. Love mysteries and indigenous traditions topics. Developing my own tour brand RagnarokTour !

Originally born in Kyiv, during "soviet times", while living a big part of my life in Lisbon. Besides that lived in Belgium, Norway and Colombia

Excelente tour en español por Sintra y sus misterios! Se notaba la pasión de Venceslau y su conocimiento del tema. Súper recomendable!!!

This walking tour was honestly one of the highlights of my time in Lisbon. Slava was incredibly knowledgeable, but what really stood out was how he shared it—everything was explained in a way that was engaging, clear, and genuinely intriguing. He had thoughtful answers to every question, never rushed us, and somehow made history feel alive instead of dusty. On top of that, he was kind, fun, and easy to talk to, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and personal rather than scripted. You can tell he truly loves what he does, and that energy carries through the entire tour. I walked away feeling smarter, inspired, and more connected to the city. Highly recommend if you want more than just the basics—you’ll leave curious and wanting more.

Slava tiene un tour muy interesante y distinto. Se habla de la historia y lugares visitados, pero va más allá explicando también sus mitos y símbolos. 100% recomendado.

This is definitely not your traditional Sintra tour and that’s the fun of it! Instead of a standard history walk, our guide dives into the lesser-known Masonic influences of the town, mixing his research with symbolism hidden in plain sight. There’s no hard proof tying everything together (whether it’s Freemasons, the Order of Christ, or something else entirely!) but there are just enough symbols, architectural details, and connections to intriguing historical figures to make you stop and think. Coincidence… or not? If you’re looking for a typical facts-only, checklist-style tour, this probably isn’t for you. But if you’ve already done the classic Sintra tour (or enjoy a little mystery with your history) this experience offers a fresh, imaginative perspective and turns the walk into a genuinely fun piece of storytelling.
