Travel through Lisbon’s historic districts with an expert guide who reveals superb views of the city. Stop at the grand Lisbon Cathedral, taste delicious custard tarts from Belém, visit the ornate Jerónimos Monastery, and stand before the impressive monument to the Age of Discovery.

Your private tour begins when you’re picked up at your hotel and driven through the Portas do Sol and Nossa Senhora do Monte districts. Get out to explore the city’s winding streets, stopping in the Lisbon Cathedral to see the dazzling reconstructed rose window’s stained glass.

Walk down the twisting cobblestone streets of Alfama on your way to Belém, where you learn how the city grew during the Age of Discovery. Marvel at the astounding Jerónimos Monastery whose opulent façade seems to stretch on for miles. Check out the Belém Tower fortification at the mouth of the River Tagus, and learn about the men represented as sculptures on the Monument to the Discoveries.

Next, try a traditional pastel de Belém custard tart and make your way back to the city center, following an aqueduct and the famous Tram 28 route. Your tour then comes to an end in the Baixa area, where you can learn how Lisbon was rebuilt after an intense earthquake in 1755.
