Lisbon Sightseeing Tour

Visiting all the most famous sights of the capital of Portugal: Eduard VII Park, Liberty Avenue (Avenida de Liberade), the central areas of Baixa / Chiadu, the ancient area of Alfama, the famous Belem district with architectural monuments in the style of "Manueline". Let's try the famous cakes "pastel-de-nata", which are still cooked according to the secret recipe of the 17th century.

If you want to be squeezed in a stuffy subway or shake in a city bus, if you want to get lost in an unfamiliar city, and if you do not set a goal to enjoy your trip, then this excursion is not for you.

We will meet you at the hotel to give you the opportunity to look at the city through the eyes of a local resident and plunge into the history of one of the oldest European cities for 4 hours. I will not retell to you what you can read in Wikipedia, but we will drive through the most significant monuments and areas in a comfortable Mercedes-Benz air-conditioned car.

Start to succumb to the charm of Lisbon by looking at the oldest areas of the capital from the height of the observation deck of the park Edward VII. Waving from afar to the shimmering waters of the Tagus River, we will go to get acquainted with them closer along the Liberty Avenue (Avenida de Liberdade), where the shops of famous world brands are located, explore the Baixa area with its medieval winding streets, French fountains on Rossio square, pedestrian street Augusta, Figueira Square and Commerce Square.

In the ancient fishing area of Alfama you need to look around - each building does not look like the neighboring one, and the traditional painted glazed tile “azulejo” adds charm to the city. Through the Cathedral, along narrow streets, we will rise to the highest point of the city - the observation deck of Graça, which offers a picturesque view of the fortress of St. George and the bridge April 25, the twin brother of the American bridge in San Francisco.

To hear the melody of Lisbon, you can visit the Museum of Fado, a traditional Portuguese romance, and feel the power of Portuguese love and sadness without even knowing a word in Portuguese.

Next we will move to Belém or Bethlehem region: there are two of the seven wonders of Portugal awaiting us: similar to a royal palace the Hieronymus Monastery, where the remains of the famous seafarer Vasco da Gama, the most romantic poet Luis Camões and representatives of the second royal dynasty of the Avish are buried; as well as the Tower of Belém from which we will walk to the monument to the Discoverers and step on the map of the world laid out on the square in front of the monument, which is often not noticed by tourists, if they look around and not under their feet.

Here we "try Lisbon on the palate", visiting the factory of popular pasties "pastel de nata", the recipe of which is kept in the strictest secrecy, like the recipe of Coca Cola.
