Lisbon has an infectious laid-back charm and a perfect balance between the old and the new. What better way to observe as well as explore this cool European city than in a tram clanging, ringing its way through the cobbled alleyways and then on foot with a guide by your side. Jump on and we take you on a ride!
So here’s the plan. Your tram will take you to the bohemian and avante-garde Bairro Alto district known for its dive bars, traditional Fado houses, wine bars and LGBT hotspots. Its historical rubberstamp is the St Roch Church which houses the Chapel of St. John the Baptist, said to be the most expensive chapels ever built back in the 18th century. Next up is the upbeat Chiado, a shopping area since the 19th century and a famous cultural and literary district. Spend some time roaming the streets and snack on Ginjinha Cherry liqueur and Pastel de Nata custard tart at a chic café (the guide’s top pick!).
Rossio, the next stop during the walking tour, is the ornamental square around which the life of the folks in Lisbon revolves. It is heavily artistic with grand fountains and a statue of the Dom Pedro IV in the centre. You may find the youth hanging out with friends, workers putting up demonstrations or tourists hovering. From Downtown, we will head to the oldest of Lisbon Hills with more history on your way when you visit the Castle and plunge into the labyrinthine ancient streets of Alfama neighbourhood. A visit to an old Cathedral here and a special church nearby, the walk will finally conclude at the picturesque Trade Square overlooking the Tagus River and lined with yellow buildings with arcades all along the façade.
