About the Tour
Hello travelers!
The tour I´m preparing is a time travel for you to meet with the characters and venture into the highlights of the magic village of Sintra. I will tell you the forbidden stories which have been ripped off the books. As a personal quest, it is my honor to unveil the many mysteries which belong to the streets. These stories are an ode to the achievements of life, good and bad, and far from happy endings.
Many artists, tinkers, and nobles found in Sintra the refuge to absorb its mystique they could inspire themselves for their work, Lord Byron and Hans Christian Anderson were one of their residents.
I invite you to come with me on time travel, to meet kings and queens, artists and poets, and decode symbols from the ancient templars until contemporary Maçonary.
We go strolling through the historical center, stopping in the National Palace for a hand full of stories, I also give a special highlight to Qui
About the Guide
Hello travelers! I am Nuno ‘the storyteller’, a native Lisboeta. Growing up as a kid in the Bairro Alto neighborhood, the brazen life of bohemian artists, nobles, and prostitutes piqued my curiosity. Since my 7 years of age I discovered the mystical paths of Sintra, first as a scout and now as a storyteller, always with the same curiosity. I discovered the aura around storytelling as I began to craft my very first stories at the age of 9 in the school newspaper.. I was a boy who literally grew up on the streets of Bairro Alto in Lisbon, symbolic not of a homeless boy but of a child who enjoyed the privileges of playing on the streets, which was considered normal during my childhood years. Ironically after and during my early twenties, I became a salesperson, which further led me to consider being an entrepreneur, from playing on the streets to being a salesperson and studying Theatre could only lead to becoming a….Storyteller!!!.
