Full description
Two hours is all it takes to hit Lisbon's greatest hits, and that's the entire point of this walking tour. Built for travelers short on time but not on appetite, it packs the city's best bites and best-known corners into one tour with no wasted stops.
Starting right outside the Church of São Roque, your small group of up to twelve heads downhill through Bairro Alto and Chiado for a fiery plate of peri-peri chicken and a glass of something local, then on through Chiado's grander streets toward Baixa's postcard squares. Along the way, a family-run counter serves up its two most-ordered savory snacks, and a century-old spot hands over a sandwich locals still queue for.
The walk closes on the flakiest custard tart in the city, still warm from the oven. Think of it as the shortcut version of Lisbon: the main bites and main sights, covered before anything else on your trip.

Valentina was very good. Wine was good and generous. Interesting and tasty food which was good quality. enough to eat. Pace of tour was good.
We had a great time with Paul learning about the city, the culture, the food, and other things to do in Amsterdam. The food was excellent, and the conversation and inside information was even better.
Samuel was an outstanding guide- truly representing the people of Sevilla with his stories and kindness.
