Highlights

Palacio Xabregas ou Marqueses de Olhao - Marvila is to Lisbon what Brooklyn is to New York, or Shoreditch is to London. A neighborhood rich in architectural heritage that is reinventing itself for young people looking for new and engaging movements in the arts and culture. Today, Marvila is synonymous with alternative lifestyles, innovation and a decidedly hipster attitude. Although the area has some of the most impressive street art murals you’ll find in Lisbon, Marvila isn’t just about aesthetics; there’s plenty of substance to support the growth of what is becoming one of the most exciting areas of the Portuguese capital. - Alfama - Alfama is one of Lisbon’s most genuine neighborhoods. Its architecture has peculiar characteristics of old and colorful buildings that give it a character of joy and tranquility. Strolling through the Alfama district is an invitation to get lost in some extremely charming alleyways. Easy to get lost, even easier to find! Alfama is one of Lisbon’s oldest neighborhoods and was founded by the Arabs who gave it the name “Al-hama”, which means “source of hot waters, good waters”. You can’t have a genuine experience in Lisbon without getting lost in the alleys and charms of this neighborhood, which is considered the heart of the city. Wandering through Alfama’s narrow, cluttered alleyways, you’ll feel like you’re in a small village and witness conversations between neighbors, hear fado echoing down the staircases and even see the Tagus in another dimension. - Miradouro da Graca (Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen) - Bairro da Graça is one of Lisbon’s most traditional neighborhoods and manages to retain its picturesque atmosphere even today. The residents of this neighborhood coexist with tourists, who come to this place in search of the soul and tradition of a typical Lisbon neighborhood - Miradouro de Santa Luzia - As popular for the view as for its unique tile decoration, this is one of Lisbon’s must-see spots. - Miradouro da Senhora do Monte - Next to the Chapel of Senhora do Monte, this privileged balcony overlooks the city and offers a wide and rich panorama of Lisbon: the Castle of São Jorge, the River Tagus, the Baixa, the hill of São Roque with the ruins of the Carmo Convent, the old and intimate areas of Colina do Castelo and Mouraria, the Lisbon of the wide avenues and the more recently built buildings to the north, the main gardens, among other views. - Escadinhas de Sao Cristovao - Mouraria is one of Lisbon’s most traditional and multicultural neighborhoods and is still a typical Lisbon neighborhood, with its own characteristics, traditions and customs and, above all, its unique people. - Bairro Alto - Located on Lisbon’s 7th hill, Bairro Alto is one of Lisbon’s oldest and quirkiest neighborhoods, where Lisbon’s nightlife has gained a reputation for being very lively and fun. Bairro Alto has a life of its own and is undoubtedly a place to visit and return to whenever you want! - Casa do Alentejo - Casa do Alentejo is housed in the Alverca Palace, built in the 17th century and officially offered to all Alentejans (by birth or by heart) from 1981 (it had been leased to the Grémio Alentejano since 1932).

Amazing tuk-tuk tour of Lisbon with Rui - Rui took us to beautiful spots all over Lisbon. He told us much about Lisbon, the sights we visited and the areas we passed. He created an incredible experience with his friendly personality, clean electric tuk-tuk, and taking special requests. We would definitely recommend a tour with Rui! He also suggested a favourite restaurant of his, which we went to and it was the best restaurant experience of our trip to Portugal! Thank you Rui!!
