A great way to discover the city's beauty and set those memories to music is to take a personalized walking tour of Lisbon's top landmarks ending with tapas, Ginjinha, wine, and a live fado show.
Fado Experience Tour in Lisbon
The walking tour is limited to just 12 people at a time to ensure an intimate atmosphere, and takes place in the afternoon so that the monuments, the viewpoints and the river are bathed in the light of the "golden hour".
The tour begins at Praça dos Restauradores, continues along Portas de Santo Antãostreet, then on to Casa Alentejo, with all the cultural richness of that Portuguese region and its Arab heritage. Next, there is a stop at a centuries-old tavern.
Then it's time to hop aboard Lisbon's historic Tram 28, which takes you to Nossa Senhora do Monte. A charming Lisbon viewpoint with breathtaking views over the city, the 25 de Abril Bridge, the river, and Cristo Rei..
The tour then heads to Graça, a Lisbon neighbourhood with another magnificent viewpoint and a kiosk with views where you can enjoy a refreshing beer or a coffee. From there, you head a little further down to the oldest neighbourhood in the city: Alfama where you can enjoy the delights of the exquisite music of fado with Portuguese tapas and local drinks.
