Tiago

Tiago Miranda Neiva was born and raised in Lisbon. He studied architecture in Rome and worked later in distinct offices in Portugal and Spain. For several years he was Professor of Arts and Art History, having a Master's degree in Teaching of Visual Arts. He is currently working towards a PhD focused on the Art and Architecture of al-Andalus: the confluence between the Arab, Jewish and Christian medieval world. In recent years he has been working as a tour guide in his hometown, seeking to show and reveal its most intimate secrets through an authentic and passionate local vision. He loves to read, talk and travel, and is through the contact with the diversity of the world around where he finds the particularities and answers of his own life.

We will start with some informative and practical advice regarding how to visit the museums, and their costs and schedules, followed by a journey through the 10 best museums Lisbon has to offer. All of the museums will have a brief description about its origin, history, location and the building that hosts them, followed by a brief presentation of their collections with one special piece highlighted, so you are prepared when you explore it yourself. This is the perfect opportunity for those seeking to learn more deep about Lisbon and Portuguese arts, culture, and history through different perspectives.
