Doing what: Lisbon Seven Hills Electric Bike Tour
Best bicycle tour yet--I've done Bacelona, Paris, Rome and Sydney. The electric bikes make it possible to visit places that you wouldn't think of going to, even in a car! And there is no substitute for a guide who knows the area---the guys at rent a fun are the best. Julio took us to places not on the usual tours, plus they gave me a map with the location some of the best eateries in the city.
---PS - thanks to "the girls" for picking up the soda tab...

Doing what: Private Tour: Best of Lisbon by Sidecar
This was one of the best private tours we have ever taken! My husband was a bit skeptical beforehand, but he was totally won over by both the tour itself and by Daniel, our Driver/Guide. Daniel is a Lisbon native and he has so much knowledge about his beloved home town. My husband rode on the motorcycle, and I rode in the sidecar. People stopped and stared, pointed at us, smiled, waved, laughed, or even insisted on photographing us! I felt like a celebrity or royalty, and having so many people pause at the sight of us added to the enjoyment of our afternoon with Daniel in Lisbon. We originally chose this tour as a different way to spend our third time in Lisbon, but we saw virtually ALL of Lisbon during the tour, so it really is a great introduction for first time visitors to Lisbon too. I highly recommend booking it!

This was a spectacular way to see the heart of Lisbon. Our guide Simon provided excellent commentary and led us around without a problem. We were a bit apprehensive about biking up and down the hills of Lisbon, however, if the electric bikes make it easy 70 year ollds, anyone can make this trip.

A wonderful way to see the sites of London, enjoy the beautiful weather, and incorporate a little of cardio into your tour. The electric bike was beneficial on the 4-5 large hills of Lisbon which offered wonderful panoramic phot opportunities of the city. The guide was professional, friendly, knowledgable, and caring about this riders. This is the third city I have done a bike tour (Rome and Mardrid) and I highly recommend these tours. My wife and I have loved these!

You need to advise the public that this is a tour for experienced bikers. My girlfriend fell at the beginning of the tour because the hills are steep and the cobblestone streets are tricky. It ruined her trip as she was not able to continue on the cruise because the bike fell on her foot and sprained it. I found the tour to be too long. There is a lot to see in Lisbon and this tour does not cover the beautiful part of the city.

Doing what: Private Tour: Best of Lisbon by Sidecar
Daniel gave us the most amazing tour that my wife and I have ever been on. I knew that this was going to be an amazing tour when he picked us up and asked if we had any plans, because we might be going long. Daniel showed us every bit of Lisbon and the sidecar is an amazing way to see it. When we went it was a bit rainy, but it mattered very little as Daniel was ready with rain suits. What was so amazing about the tour is that with the bike and sidecar, you can get places that most giant tour buses cant even dream of. Also, the knowledge that Daniel holds is amazing. Any question we had, he answered. I would highly recommend this tour. We have traveled all over the world and can almost gurantee that we will never have a tour as amazing as the tour with Daniel. Book now and enjoy an amazing day.

Joanna, our tour guide, was wonderfully engaging. We met her on a Sunday March morning, and we were the only ones on the tour. She led us through lovely intermittent sun and rain for more than three hours. Our tour was unhurried, and Joanna was knowledgeable but flexible, willing to show us and discuss whatever we wanted. Her good humor and personality were a pleasure. This was our first tour and first full day in Lisbon, and Joanna made us feel comfortable in the city and excited to explore on our own. She set the stage for our beautiful week-long stay in Lisbon.

In my many years of traveling, this tour was one of my very best.
The bicycle tour with rent a fun was so awesome. The tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly.
Rent a fun is definitely an A+.
After the tour, I forgot my wallet on the bicycle and they tracked me down to give it back. Amazing!

First of all we absolutely LOVED Lisbon. It is a fantastic city full of kind and friendly people. Our tour guide was Carla from the company Inside Lisbon. She was wonderful. We walked through all different parts of the city and she was extremely knowledgeable about the history and the different sites. It was great that it was just my husband, son, and I and one other woman from Spain on the tour. We received individual attention which was great. We even got a complimentary dessert at the end. This was a great way to get used to the city. We highly recommend it on the day after arrival.

Great tour! It would have been better If she didn't have to speak 6-7 languages for everything she said.
But the tour guide was great!!

Late picking up at the hotel even though has made arrangement for pick aup at 8:05 am. Got picked up at 0930am, and therefore has to catch up with the rest of the tours. Very disorganized.
