After greeting your guide and LGBT group in Commerce Square (Praça do Comércio), you’ll receive an introduction to Lisbon’s rich heritage and culture. Admire the ornate arch that heralds the entrance to Rua Augusta — a sophisticated shopping street — and hear about the 18th-century earthquake that devastated the square.
At a leisurely pace, you’ll explore the historic district of Alfama — an ambient tangle of cobbled streets, colorful townhouses and fado bars — and admire the intricately tiled floor of Rossio Square.
See, too, the monuments of the Baixa and Chiado neighborhoods, and stop regularly to capture photographs and chat with your fellow travelers. This tour is aimed at LGBT travelers and their friends to ensure you enjoy a relaxed atmosphere and meet likeminded people.
Conclude your tour with a shot of ginginha (Portuguese liquor made from ginja berries) before bidding your guide and group a fond farewell.
