ALFAMA & MOURARIA TOUR

Our historic center tour of Lisbon starts at the evocative São Vicente de Fora, a monastery and ideal starting point to immerse ourselves in the city's millennial history. From here, we descend to the splendid chapel and Miradouro de Santo Estêvão, offering a spectacular view over Alfama's red rooftops and winding streets.

 

Continuing, we reach the famous Miradouros das Portas do Sol and Santa Luzia, iconic spots for unforgettable photos and admiring the Tagus River embracing the city. We then venture into Alfama's picturesque alleys, passing artisan shops and traditional cafés, until we arrive at São Miguel, an elegant place of worship safeguarding centuries of art and history.

 

The path leads to Lisbon's Sé Cathedral, the majestic structure dominating the city, and nearby Sant’Antonio, a small architectural gem tied to the capital's deepest traditions. Descending to the charming São Cristóvão neighborhood, we immerse ourselves in Mouraria, a labyrinth of streets rich in history, culture, and authentic atmospheres, concluding the tour in the lively Praça da Figueira.

 

From here, looking upwards, you can admire the hill we've traversed from the start, a perspective revealing Lisbon in its entirety from top to bottom, sealing a journey through history, vistas, and people.
