What You’ll Experience

1

Baixa de Lisboa

We will tour some of the most iconic districts of old Lisbon, trying out food & drink on the way to our final destination which is a fantastic "tasca" where we will have our main food & drink tasting!
2 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
2

Bairro Alto

The sleepy but trendy district of Bairro Alto transforms into a lively bohemian paradise by night, and is one of the best places to eat and drink in Lisbon. Thanks to its central location and proximity to the city’s principal sights, Bairro Alto has a higher number of restaurants (in one of which we will eat) than any other district in Lisbon. From contemporary, authentic and traditional Portuguese food, to fusion cooking and rare local specialities.
30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
3

Alfama

Alfama is Lisbon's most emblematic quarter and one of the most rewarding for walkers and photographers thanks to its medieval alleys and outstanding views. Because its foundation is dense bedrock, it survived the 1755 earthquake, and a walk through this old-fashioned residential neighbourhood is now a step back in time. It's a village within a city still made up of narrow streets, tiny squares, churches, and whitewashed houses with tile panels and wrought-iron balconies adorned with pots of flowers, drying laundry, and caged birds.
30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
4

Cais do Sodre Train Station

Similar to Bairro Alto, the vibe in Cais do Sodré is similarly bohemian. Do not bother turning up anywhere much before midnight, as this is when the crowds descend. If you want to get a full taste of the area, here are a few of the neighbourhood's hottest bars and live music venues, perfect for a late-night bar crawl.
30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
5

Rua da Bica

Bica is one of the city’s most traditional neighborhoods, known for its small bars and the funicular that runs through it which has been going up and down the hill since 1892. This tiny neighborhood, surrounded by Chiado, Bairro Alto and Cais do Sodré was founded in 1597, after a land slide. It was firstly inhabited by fishermen and it´s made of narrow streets with stairs and cobbled stones. In here you can find Rua da Bica de Duarte Belo, which is in the top ten of the most beautiful streets in Europe.
30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
