Our little group really enjoyed meeting Tiago and learning more about Portugal's Age of Discovery. Tiago is enthusiastic, passionate, funny and engaging. He brought to life the important figures and highlighting many interesting architectural features that we alone would not have noticed, and if we did, would not have understood their significance. I felt like we were walking and chatting with a highly informed friend. He is a great ambassador for Context. As for suggestions, this tour could easily run 3+ hours, given the richness of Portugal’s history. I also think that given the changing social attitudes to colonialism and it's impact, the topics to be discussed could include modern day social issues that have arisen from this period of Portugal’s history and importantly, what are the current discussions underway ( if any). Tiago did a great job of answering my questions in this regard, balancing the pride that the Portuguese have in their remarkable history with acknowledgment that there are two sides to this story.

Excellent guide. Very knowledgeable, helpful and lost of patience
