Description

Ready to fall in love with Lisbon? Join us on a 3-hour walking tour that goes beyond the postcards. We’ll take you through the soul of the city, where history, humor, and hills meet. Visit to the Castle included! This isn’t just a tour. It’s a conversation, a stroll through centuries, and a chance to see the real Lisbon with someone who actually loves walking uphill (yes, we exist!). ✔️ Explore Iconic Neighborhoods Wander through the cobbled streets of Alfama, and Chiado. We’ll trace the city’s journey from Roman roots to Moorish alleys, earthquakes, and Age of Discovery legends, not missing the Commerce Square, one of the biggest in the world. ✔️ Unforgettable Views and visit to the Castle Visit the iconic Castle, the most scenic viewpoint, perfect for photos and a quick breath. From the hill to the Tagus River, you’ll see why locals never tire of this view. ✔️ Hidden Gems & Local Secrets Forget tourist traps. We’ll show you secret corners, symbols, and stories you won’t find in a guidebook. Want to know where locals eat or where to buy the best ginjinha? We’ve got you. ✔️ Culture with a Twist Hear tales of explorers, revolutions, and everyday Lisbon life , always with fun facts and surprises along the way. By the end of the tour, you’ll understand Lisbon’s soul, know how to navigate its hills like a local, and (likely) have a long list of places you still want to visit. The experience starts at the entrance to Castle S. Jorge, Lisbon’s guardian for almost a thousand years. As we wander through the city’s most iconic districts, you'll discover hidden gems, snap stunning photos, and hear stories that bring Lisbon to life. 1) Skip the long lines and visit Castle S. Jorge, the best possible beginning for our journey. Accompanied by our expert tour guide, it will be your fist historical postcard of the city, where you will hear how it has been silently watching over Lisbon for nearly a thousand years! 2) Visit Bertrand Bookstore, oldest in the world (est. 1732), and hear how it survived earthquakes, revolutions, and Amazon. 3) Savor the traditional Pastel de Nata, straight from a local bakery, hearing the story of how monks, sugar, and secret recipes gave birth to Portugal’s most beloved sweet. 4) Taste Ginjinha, the iconic cherry liqueur, from a traditional family-run place. Learn about its sweet (and strong!) place in Portuguese culture. 5) Climb into Chiado, Lisbon’s bohemian quarter. Hear tales of poets, philosophers, and the quirks of café culture, all with the due dramatic flair. 6) Wander Alfama, the city’s oldest district, a Moorish maze of narrow lanes and hidden corners. Along the way, learn about the roots of Fado, our soulful music of longing and love. This tour is perfect for first-time visitors and curious travelers who want to understand the why, not just the what, of Lisbon. You’ll walk away with great stories, useful tips, and a few new favorite places.
