About this experience

Our Historic Lisbon package covers the areas of the 7 Hills and the Belém area. An entire route of about 30 km, of which 14 km in two of the most challenging areas to complete in any other way in the same period, the Medieval Hills and Romantic Hills.

Explore Lisbon's Medieval Hills, delving into its 3,000-year history from its founding to Moorish conquest. Wander through narrow streets, enjoy city viewpoints, and conquer steep hills. Transition to the Romantic Hills, a post-1755 earthquake renewal with palaces and chic neighborhoods.

On the way to Belém, see UNESCO sites: Jerónimos Monastery, Belém Tower, and Padrão dos Descobrimentos. These landmarks symbolize the Maritime Discoveries period. All these, along with the 7 Hills, offer more than tourist buses cover, nor the 28 or the 15 trams.

Here’s everything you can do with us in 3h/4h! By yourself, it would take 3 to 4 days without being able to complement our explanations and enjoy our company.
