About this experience

Begin your tour in Praça do Comércio, an imposing square facing the blue Tagus river, Lisbon’s entrance for vessels by the time of the Discoveries.
Travel through the 18th century downtown, rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake.
Climb up the hills on the way to hilltop monuments, enter the narrow streets of Alfama, the very 1st quarter of Lisbon full of roman remains, arabic influences and details that inspired the Fado songs, the 12th century imposing Cathedral and the St. Jorge Castle crowning the hill.
There’s a lot more to discover aboard this vintage tram, a regular presence in Lisbon’s scenery since the 19th century. Ready to hop on?
