About this experience
Four hours to truly explore Lisbon — enough time to see the icons and uncover hidden gems. We begin in Belém to taste the Pastéis de Belém and visit the Jerónimos Monastery, Belém Tower, and Monument to the Discoveries, before stopping at MAAT. We then head to the LxFactory, buzzing with creativity, and Cais do Sodré, home to the Time Out Market and the lively Pink Street. Next, we visit Príncipe Real, explore Chiado and Bica, and stop at the Basilica da Estrela and Parliament. We climb to São Pedro de Alcântara viewpoint, visit the Carmo Convent ruins, and pass through Restauradores, Rossio, Avenida da Liberdade, and the Santa Justa Lift. The tour circles back to the historic heart, passing the Cathedral, Roman Theatre, Santa Luzia, Portas do Sol, Graça, Senhora do Monte, São Vicente de Fora Monastery, and the National Pantheon. All with a driver who blends history, local tips, and anecdotes for a complete portrait of Lisbon — monumental, creative, and authentic.
