What's in our tour?

Alfama is all that Lisbon stands for – steep winding alleys, hidden landmark churches, echoes of tunes of fado and breath-taking views of the Tagus.

Explore the soul of Lisbon in the company of a native guide.

We walk from the top down, with shaded routes for hot days. On our Lisbon tours you will feel the difference. Our native tour guides know what it’s like to live in Lisbon, are eager to take you around their favorite neighborhoods and glad to give you personal insights into life in our city – where to go out, shop, drink, dine and experience Lisbon. An hour with a Discover Walks guide on our Lisbon Walking Tours is like strolling around with a new friend.
