Highlights
-
Alfama - Alfama is a delightful maze of narrow cobbled streets and ancient houses, which lead up the steep hill from the Tejo Estuary to the Castelo de São Jorge.
Contained within this diverse and charismatic district are many of Lisbon’s most important historic buildings, including the Se Cathedral, the Castelo de São Jorge, the Panteão Nacional and the Igreja de Santo António. -
Chiado - It is a traditional shopping area that mixes old and modern commercial establishments, mostly located at the Carmo and Garrett streets.
The Chiado is also an important cultural area, with several museums and theatres. - Parque Eduardo VII - point of view
- Bairro Alto - point of view
- Mosteiro dos Jeronimos - monument
- Torre de Belem - monument
- LX Factory - LXFactory is a trendy shopping and dining area situated in a redeveloped 19th century industrial site. Former textile warehouses and printing factories have been transformed into design offices, artists’ studios and hipster stores with colorful street art plastered on the walls.
- Moorish Quarter - Mouraria is where the Moors were allowed to live after the Christian reconquest of Lisbon in 1147, before being expelled together with the Jews in 1497. Little survives from that period except for traces of the medieval wall, but this curiously remains the most multiethnic neighborhood in the city

THE BEST activity we did as a family. - BY FAR the favorite activity we did in Portugal. And we were there for 10 days! In a matter of hours we were able to see, pretty much, the entire city. The guides were incredibly friendly and helpful. It was a great ‘overview’ of the city. And then, after it was finished, our family got to decide which places we wanted to go back to and spend some extra time. So, do this motorcycle trip on your first or second day and it will give you the highlights!

A must do tour - When we were planning our trip to Lisbon, the sidecar tour was recommended to us by friends who had done it before. We were really looking forward to it and it did not disappoint.
The tour was booked for 10am. George our guide arrived to collect us from our hotel ten minutes beforehand. He explained what the tour would consist of, planned our tour, went through some safety and gave us our helmets. We climbed aboard and off we went.
The tour lasted well over three hours and we were brought all around Lisbon. We saw all the sights. George gave us lots of information about the history of the city and interesting facts. There were lots of stops along the way with lots of opportunities to take pictures. The sidecar was clean and comfortable. Despite the Lisbon roads being very bumpy, we didn't notice as George drove with great care. We took turns sitting in the sidecar, changing over at each stop point.
We were so glad that we chose this tour. We have to say that we highly recommend this tour and it is a must do for anyone travelling to Lisbon.

Brilliant fun and different tour with Gus as a fab guide - We celebrated our wedding anniversary in Lisbon. This tour was fantastic. Such a fun experience and a wonderful way to get to hear about the city’s history. We did the tour on the day of our arrival and it really helped us get our bearings too. Our guide Gus was absolutely fabulous with immense knowledge and so many fascinating facts. It was a real education and an all round brilliant experience. Would really recommend.

A must do, day 1 or 2 in Lisboa - A friend recommended this for the first day we arrived in Portugal and I couldn't agree more. You get an amazing feel for the city and you stay awake! Our driver/guide was Jorge and he was everything and more. He was a GREAT driver. Very conscious of the very bumpy roads throughout Lisboa. He was flexible about how long we spent at each spot. Sometimes we were quick to jump back on and other times we wanted to linger because the views were so good. The site is super easy to book. There communication was excellent and the sites can't be missed. You get to see more of Lisboa in 3ish hours than if you had a week!

Fun and beautiful History - This is my second tour with Daniel. I can’t say enough about how terrific a time I had. We went everywhere south of Lisbon and Daniel‘s knowledge of the areas and history is really fabulous. It was fun. It was beautiful and I highly recommend! Also, it is a lot of fun to ride in the sidecar it’s quite comfortable. The views you get from that vantage point are spectacular. Go have some fun with these guys! You won’t regret it.
