We Love What We Do !

Olá!
I’m Alexandra, a storyteller inspired by history, myths, and culture.

Over 30 years ago, I moved to Lisbon after spending my childhood in Switzerland. Exploring different cultures, learning new languages, and traveling revealed my true passion: living as a full-time wanderer.
Living in this stunning country and region has turned that dream into a reality.

To be an exceptional host, local expert, or guide, deep knowledge of my region’s history, traditions, and culture is key. I’m proud to embody all these roles—guide by profession, local expert by passion, and host by empathy.

Since 2013, I have fully dedicated myself to this calling, establishing my own company XPLORATOUR and collaborating with other trained guides. Together, we welcome every traveler as if they were family or close friends.

Travel is a time for relaxation and discovery, and I strive to make our journey both enjoyable and enriching. By sharing just the right amount of knowledge, I ensure you can immerse yourself in new cultures and stories without ever feeling overwhelmed.
