Description of the Lisbon Day Tour

Want to experience the very best of Lisbon Portugal in just one day? This Lisbon day tour is your passport to the city’s history, flavors, and unforgettable views, led by a local guide in the comfort of a private van.

Your day begins with a hotel pick-up in Lisbon, and the first stop is the west side of the city, Belém, where the Tagus River meets the Atlantic. As you walk through this iconic neighborhood, you’ll learn about Portugal’s Age of Discoveries, from legendary navigators to the ships that changed the world.

You’ll visit two of Lisbon’s most famous monuments: the Jerónimos Monastery and the Belém Tower, both listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites since 1983. Along the way, you’ll stop at the legendary Pastéis de Belém bakery to taste the original version of Portugal’s most famous custard tart.

Next, your guide will take you to Rossio Square, right in the heart of Lisbon. This lively plaza, once a hub for artists and intellectuals, is now a vibrant place to enjoy a traditional lunch. Your guide will recommend the best options nearby. Local food, no tourist traps.

After lunch, it’s time to climb up – literally. You’ll head to one of the city’s best-kept secret viewpoints (miradouros) for a breathtaking panorama over the rooftops, hills, and water below.

To close the day, you’ll visit Lisbon Cathedral (Sé de Lisboa), the city’s oldest and most historically significant church, in the atmospheric Alfama district. Then it’s back to your hotel, relaxed and enriched, with your camera full and your heart fuller.
