“Bom dia” (hello in Portuguese), I’m Joel from Portugal! I love my country, I love people, I love talking and I love to eat and drink, so I think I have the right job!!

We have a very unique approach towards travel... Once a traveler said to us at the end of their journey "is like having a friend showing you around", this is the best way to describe our vision about travelling.
