Our guide, Djuzé, was super knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. He didn’t just do his research but lives a conscious life, which is exactly the kind of guide we were looking for. We learned so much and left the tour feeling energized to explore such a culturally rich city full of African roots.

About me
Percussionist and cultural ambassador
I’m a Lisbon native of African descent. For 30 years, I’ve promoted African heritage through music, dance, and storytelling and have studied how rhythms trace historical movements, from ancient migrations to the colonial era. Through my work, I aim to highlight the deep influence of African traditions on Portuguese identity.
