Highlights
  • Alfama - Lisbon’s oldest and most charming neighborhood, often regarded as the historic heart of the city. Its steep, cobblestoned streets remain as they were in medieval times. Alfama is famous for its fado houses and the grand celebrations in honor of “Santo António” (St. Anthony) in June, drawing thousands to its streets. This area survived the devastating earthquake of 1755, helping preserve its authenticity. The neighborhood retains a Moorish feel with its narrow alleys, staircases, and laundry hanging from windows.
  • Miradouro da Senhora do Monte - Offers a stunning view over the city.
  • Graça - Situated on the highest of Lisbon’s seven hills, Graça is adjacent to the iconic São Jorge Castle. It is renowned for its two beautiful viewpoints: Senhora do Monte and Graça belvederes, the latter also known as the Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen viewpoint. In the 20th century, Graça became a residential area for factory workers, characterized by courtyards, traditional taverns, grocery stores, popular festivities, and the establishment of the first public school (Voz do Operário) and the iconic 28 tram.
  • Panteao Nacional - The favored stop is the National Pantheon, also known as St. Engratia Church. This majestic baroque monument, which took three centuries to complete (1682-1966), is the final resting place for many of the country’s most significant cultural and political figures.
  • Praca do Comercio (Terreiro do Paco) - The largest square in Europe.

A great tour with an even better guide Arthur - We had an amazing tuk tuk tour with our guide Arthur. He gave us a great overview of the old town and helped us to really understand the history of the city. We had plenty of time to make stops and take photos along the way. Overall it was a great way to see a part of the city which otherwise would have been difficult to see with all the steep hills and cobbled streets. I would highly recommend this tour and Arthur as a guide to other people!
