True Portuguese Soul in Lisbon

This exciting adventure begins at Praça do Comércio in Baixa-Chiado, where you’ll get an engaging introduction to Portuguese history along with fascinating local secrets. From there, you’ll head to Alfama, one of Lisbon’s oldest and most authentic neighborhoods, filled with narrow streets, Moorish and Jewish influences, and the warmth of everyday Lisbon life. You’ll see locals grilling on the streets, children playing football, and the unmistakable spirit of Fado music echoing through the alleys. Stop by a local tavern to enjoy a sip of Ginjinha, Lisbon’s beloved cherry liqueur, to energize you for the uphill walk.

At the top, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking views from Portas do Sol and Santa Luzia viewpoints before heading toward Mouraria, one of Lisbon’s most vibrant cultural hubs.

As you wander through Mouraria’s lively streets, discover the birthplace of Fado, local eateries, and artistic corners unknown to most tourists. By the end of the tour, you’ll have experienced Lisbon like a true local, uncovering its charm, flavors, and hidden gems.
