Free tours a Lagos

Great walking tour! Especially to do on your first day. It was a good mix of information, history, street art, stories. I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of local food we got to taste. And got some great restaurant recommendations!

Artur was a great guide really informative. We really enjoyed the experience!!

He was so passionate about his hometown. Loved his stories and he was accommodating of my elderly parents. He was lovely and I highly recommend him to everyone. He even took a detour to show us some really old houses and one of the nicest bakeries.

Artur führte uns auf eine ganz besonders reizende Art durch seine Heimatstadt Lagos und zeigte uns viele kleine Winkel, die sonst Touristen verborgen bleiben. Er versteht es wirklich, mit kleinen Geschichten über 2 Stunden lang spannend, die Geschichte von Portugal und der Algarve zu vermitteln: so dass sogar meine beiden Teenie Töchter begeistert waren. Danke Artur, für diese tolle Tour: zählst zu den besten GuruWalks, die wir jemals gemacht haben.

We really enjoyed our tour. Artur was a very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend this tour.

Ligio clears loves Lagos and is extremely knowledgeable. We learned much about the history and got great tips on places to go. It was a very enjoyable and informative. We spent the rest of the day exploring some of the spots he recommended - shops, restaurants and museums. It certainly enhanced our appreciation of Lagos!

Brodie was great and knowledgeable of the area!

Brodie is a warm and friendly tour guide who cares about the area and wants to share his knowledge. He is super helpful and it was a nice size group so really enjoyable.

Great guide. Learned so much about the history of Lagos!

Artur was a great guru with a local perspective. Highly recommend! Even provided us with treats!

Very informative! We wouldn't have seen the places worth seeing without this tour. What a privilege to learn about Lagos from a local.

We had a wonderful and very interesting tour with Lígio. We recommend him absolutely .

I like freetours as the guides are really inspired and motivated to offwr a good experience but Artur gave the best tour I had so far! Totally recommend ✌️

Thoroughly enjoyed the walking tour of old town Lagos. Ligio knew so much about the history of the town but told it on a story like manner that you were engaged. He shared street art, statues and tiles, we seen markets and recommendations for restaurants. He told the story of the history of Lagos through to the modern time and pointed out museums and other places to visit. Highly recommend!

Great insight into an expat's life!

Tour Guide extraordinaire, Ligio was interesting, informative, and entertaining. During our 2.5+ hour walk he covered history and culture, interspersed with many stories and folklore, always patiently answering our many questions. He gave helpful recommendations on what to see/do as well as what to avoid. A highlight for me was an amazing visit to the market. He identified many varieties of local seafood and produce, and arranged for us to sample some products. No stranger to the vendors, everyone seemed to know him and in fact everywhere we went, the locals greeted him by name. It's obvious Ligio loves his vocation. Obrigada Ligio. 🙏

Excellent tour. Arthur is passionate about the history and gave wonderful insight to this beautiful place. Highly recommend

Artur was professional, relatable, and informative. He knows his city and its history well. He explained the history of the area and included anecdotal commentary that made the walk very enjoyable. He was wonderful and I recommend taking his tour.

We had the pleasure of joining a walking tour of Lagos with Artur, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we began, Artur’s knowledge of the city was evident. He talked passionately throughout the entire tour, highlighting the small details that most tourists would overlook. His stories about local people and the history of Lagos gave us a deeper understanding of the city beyond its main attractions. What truly stood out was his ability to make even the simplest facts interesting and engaging. Whether it was a quirky piece of local history or an interesting tidbit about the architecture, Artur made everything come to life in a way that felt personal and genuine. The cookies he gave us were also a bonus 🥰

All good !

I would highly recommend this informative and enjoyable tour - Artur added some lovely touches!

Sehr viele und hintergründige Informationen, die man so nie erfahren würde. Viel Engagement und er liebt seinen Job.

Very informative and fun

We had an amazing free walking tour in Lagos with Lígio, a local historian who brings the city’s rich past to life. His deep knowledge of Lagos and Portuguese history is impressive, but what truly makes the tour special is his great sense of humor. Lígio has a fantastic way of mixing facts with fun, making history feel engaging and entertaining. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to explore Lagos beyond the surface and have a good laugh along the way!

Fantastic overview of the history of Lagos. The walk through the old town was exceptional-Arthur’s knowledge and passion for his city was captivating. The two plus hours went by very fast. Highly recommended!
