Lisbon: History, Stories and Lifestyle Walking Tour

1. Lisbon: History, Stories and Lifestyle Walking Tour

Discover one of Europe's most captivating and picturesque capitals on a guided walking tour. Built on a series of hills and offering panoramic views from countless spots, explore the city with a local guide who will make sure that you have an interesting and fun experience. Begin the tour in the 5-centuries-old Bairro Alto, where you’ll learn about the evolution of the city. After the earthquake of 1755 this space attracted families from the Baixa and Bairro districts, who began the process of renewal. Pass by the garden of São Pedro de Alcântara and enjoy views of Baixa and the south bank of the Tagus River. Visit the San Roque Church built by the Jesuits. Admire its austere façade, and the gilding, tiles, and paintings inside that make it a wonderful museum of Mannerist and Baroque styles. Head down the hill to the Carmo convent and church, fine examples of the city’s Gothic architecture. This is a site of historical importance as it was here that the Carnation Revolution began in 1974, putting an end to nearly 5 decades of dictatorship. A little further on, arrive at the Santa Justa elevator, an imposing monument built in the Gothic Revival style, that provides one of the best viewpoints in the city. See a number of attractions in Baixa, in the heart of the city. After a short break, take a ride on the tram, going up from the castle to the Portas do Sol. At the Portas do Sol, see the Monastery of São Vicente de Fora, the National Pantheon, and the Alfama district that spans several narrow streets to the River Tagus. Explore Alfama, one of the oldest and most traditional neighborhoods of Lisbon, known for its fado houses, and the popular festivals of saints, particularly St. Anthony. End the tour at Lisbon Cathedral, built in 1150, 3 years after the city was taken back from the Moors. Over time it has been subject to various architectural changes, becoming a mixture of different styles.

We had an absolutely fantastic tour in Lisbon with Sofia as our tour guide. She was so nice and a actually a living encyclopedia. So full of information, stories, skillful and helpful in all ways, making this tour definitely the best city tour we’ve ever experienced. We have now visited many of the hidden places she recommended and multiplied the value of our stay. The restaurants she recommended where also perfect. Very authentic and with excellent food. Tonight we have enjoyed the genuine Pastéis de Bacalhau and the special atmosphere at the tiny A Tendinha do Rossio. So many great experiences to absorb in this exciting city. This tour and Sofia is highly recommended for everyone who would like to to know and enjoy Lisbon! Muito obrigado, Sofia!

I can’t say enough good things about our guide, Andre. We learned so much about the history and the culture of Lisbon and Portugal. I only wish that we had planned time for a second tour tomorrow. Andre was extremely knowledgeable and allowed us to ask questions and enriched our experience of Lisbon immensely. Thank you again Andre for a wonderful tour.

Red Line is well worth the cost. Blue line was not worth the time and expense. Good narration & sound. Clean bus.

Our tour with Monika was really great. She reported passionately about Lisbon. Always my pleasure!

It was a very informative and great tour. Many thanks to Monica.
