2-Hour Historic Alfama Tour
Step back in time and discover the soul of Lisbon on this relaxing 2-hour private tuk tuk tour of Alfama, the city’s oldest and most authentic neighbourhood. Wander through Lisbon’s historic streets before arriving in the heart of Alfama, where you’ll leave the Tuk Tuk behind for a leisurely walk through its charming maze of narrow cobbled streets, hidden alleys, colourful houses and picturesque squares. This walking experience allows you to immerse yourself in the unique atmosphere of the neighbourhood, uncover hidden corners that large vehicle can’t reach, and experience the authentic rhythm of local life. You’ll also have the opportunity to taste Ginjinha, Portugal’s famous sweet cherry liqueur, enjoyed by generations of Lisbon residents. As you continue exploring you’ll stop by breathtaking viewpoints such as the Miradouro da Graça and see the magnificent Castelo de São Jorge, one of Lisbon’s most iconic landmarks. Along the way, discover hidden squares, historic churches such as the Sé Cathedral, fantastic monuments in São Vicente de Fora - The Pantheon - and traditional Fado culture restaurants, and panoramic views of Tagus River while learning about the fascinating history that shaped Portugal’s capital. To complete your experience, we’ll stop at the highest overview point in the city - MiradouroSenhora do Monte - to enjoy the spectacular view of this unforgettable city before we return to finalise the tour at the FigueiraSquare.
