Overview

Looking for a fresh approach to the Portuguese capital, preferably somewhere between grass-roots culture, street vibes and contemporary rites? if so this tour is tailor-made for you.
First we wander around a string of amazing hilltop terraces over the city and the river, before we dive into the picturesque neighborhoods of the Castle hill. We visit monuments like the Roman Theater and The Sé Cathedral, but also quiet backstreets, remote courtyards and puzzling alleyways. Finally we get to the monumental riverside and explore Renaissance Palaces, late Gothic Churches and the majestic Commercial Square, open to the Ocean and the World.

Miradouro Das Portas Do Sol

The story of Lisbon is inseparable from the river, that large gateway to the Atlantic ocean. This square is a perfect starting point to explore the city as it offers sweeping views over the Castle Hill and the Old Town framed by the broad mouth of the Tagus river.

Lisbon Cathedral

First and only remaining Romanesque monument in town, the Lisbon Cathedral is half a church, half a fortress. Some say it's almost a new medieval cathedral, as it was radically rebuilt in the 30's of the 20th century.

Church of St. Anthony

Tradition says this church was built on top of the room where Saint Anthony was born. That room is now the crypt of the church (rebuilt after the 1755 tsunami), one of the most popular in Lisbon. But is St. Anthony or St. Vincent the Lisbon favorite saint?
