Lisbon Half Day Tour: Alfama & Belém by Tuk Tuk (Always Private)

Originally a humble fishing village, Belém rose to become one of the most iconic pillars of the Portuguese Age of Discoveries. This remarkable district holds the stories of a nation that set sail in search of new worlds, establishing a vast global empire. On this immersive tour, you’ll uncover the very places where history was made — from the grand Monastery of Jerónimos, a masterpiece of Manueline architecture, to the shipyards where vessels were crafted for their daring voyages. Belém is where Europe first looked outward to the unknown, and where the dreams of exploration began to take shape.

Ride through history by Tuk Tuk as we explore the most significant monuments in Belém, including the iconic Belém Tower, the striking Padrao dos Descobrimentos, and the awe-inspiring Jerónimos Monastery. As we retrace the steps of legendary explorers, we’ll also make time to savor the famous Pasteis de Nata — Portugal’s beloved custard tart known around the world. This journey is more than a sightseeing tour; it’s a vivid step back in time to when Lisbon was the beating heart of international trade and maritime discovery. Come and experience the spirit of exploration that still lives on in the streets of Belém.
