At your Lisbon hotel, greet your private guide and board an air-conditioned coach. Lisbon’s rich and ancient history makes for interesting commentary: listen as your guide regales anecdotes and facts about the Portuguese capital.
Head first to São Jorge Castle—an ancient fortress that reigns supreme from a hilltop—and admire Lisbon’s medieval vestiges from this lookout point. Discover a little-known church; explore the multi-cultural labyrinth of the Alfama neighborhood; and absorb the ambiance of Comércio Square, flanked by the Tagus River.
Purchase lunch at a restaurant recommended by your guide before proceeding to the Tile Museum—home to fine examples of ceramic tile making.
Admire the Baixa, Principe Real, and Barrio Alto neighborhoods; appreciate European treasures in the museum of São Roque Church; and browse the bespoke boutiques of Chiado.
Your final stop is the district of Belém—a coastal gem replete with beautiful architecture and famed for its exquisite pastel de nata tarts. Gaze at the elaborate Belém Tower (Torre de Belém)—considered a city symbol — and then visit Mosteiro dos Jerónimos (Jeronimos Monastery).
Your private tour concludes with drop-off at your Lisbon hotel after a full day of exploration.
