Il programma nel dettaglio

See and taste your way through the city on this adventure-packed Lisbon tour. With historic highlights, culinary delights, and local interaction, it´s a unique insight into the heart of this amazing place.



Meet your informative, local guide in the historic neighbourhood of Mouraria – a melting pot of cultures from far and wide and a place you are unlikely to see on other Lisbon tours. Portugal’s seafaring past has allowed many different cultural influences to contribute to the richness of modern-day Portuguese culture. We’ll see examples of this as we pass small churches, mosques, and shops selling goods from far-flung places.



Learn about Fado (Lisbon’s unique music) as you walk past the birthplace of the legendary Maria Severa, Fado’s first superstar who used to sing in Lisbon’s taverns many years ago. Our Lisbon tour then satisfies your appetite by stopping at a small, hidden bakery where traditional pastries and espresso coffee will provide a tasty pick-me-up and another insight into the local way of life, of which this Lisbon food tour shows you plenty - trust us!



Soak up some Lisbon sightseeing highlights and history while visiting churches and taverns, then stop to taste Portuguese cheese and authentic, locally made marmalade.

Walk past the beautiful Rossio Square (Lisbon’s main square) and find out how much the city has changed since the devastating earthquake of 1755.



Next, explore the highlights of the cultural and bohemian districts of Chiado, Bairro Alto and Bica as you travel through Lisbon. We'll stop to enjoy spectacular views of the city alongside a refreshing drink. Then, we’ll take a short trip to the Tagus River, the subject of many Portuguese songs and poems, where we’ll board a ferry and venture to the picturesque Cacilhas, where Portuguese green wine and freshly-caught seafood await! Enjoy magnificent views from the South Bank, then return to your start point where your tour ends. From here your local guide will be happy to give you directions back to your accommodation, or recommendations on other places to check out in this area.
