Bairro Alto

(Pass by)

Visitors can stroll through the cobbled streets of the bohemian Bairro Alto, walk in the Elevador da Bica, visit the exuberant São Roque Church or admire the landscape of the São Pedro de Alcântara viewpoint. Many of the neighborhood's century-old houses are decorated with colorful urban art.

Cidade Baixa

(Pass by)

The downtown area with a lot of typical commerce.

Panteao Nacional

(Pass by)

he National Pantheon, housing the tombs of Portugal’s major historic celebrities, is located on the original site of the church of Santa Engrácia. Founded in the second half of the 16th century, the building was totally rebuilt at the end of the 17th century by the architect João Antunes. Even though it was never used as a place of worship, it still preserves, under its modern dome, a majestic nave with a polychrome marble decoration typical of the Portuguese Baroque architecture. Being an icon of Lisbon’s cityscape and having a privileged location, as it overlooks the city’s historic centre and the river Tagus, it is listed as a National Monument.

Feira da Ladra

(Pass by)

Lisbon's flea market is called "Feira da Ladra," often thought to mean "Thieves' Market" (in Portuguese, "ladra" is a woman thief) but it actually derives from "ladro," a bug or a flea found in antiques. A market of this type is thought to have been in place in Lisbon since the 12th Century, and the name "Feira da Ladra" was first mentioned in the 17th Century.

Praca do Comercio (Terreiro do Paco)

(Pass by)

Facing, south, the Tagus (Tejo), the city square is still commonly known as Terreiro do Paço as hosted the Paços da Ribeira (Royal Ribeira Palace) until it was destroyed by the great 1755 Lisbon earthquake. After the earthquake, the square was completely remodeled as part of the rebuilding of the Pombaline Downtown, ordered by Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo, 1st Marquis of Pombal, who was (chief) Minister of Portugal from 1750 to 1777, during the reign of Dom José I, King of Portugal.

Avenida da Liberdade

(Pass by)

The largest avenue.

Miradouro das Portas do Sol

This viewpoint is essentially one huge balcony above the ancient Alfama neighborhood. Its panoramic view has illustrated countless postcards, showing what looks like a colorful Mediterranean village cascading down to the waterfront. It’s a mandatory stop for anyone who wants to take the best photos of old Lisbon, with the towers of the Monastery of St. Vincent and the dome of the National Pantheon standing out in the skyline.

Miradouro da Senhora do Monte

This is the highest & the best viewpoint that we experienced in Lisbon. Highly recommend going to watch the sunset.

We booked this through our hotel. The ride was incredibly uncomfortable. The vehicle has no shock absorbers on an extremely bump terrain. Our backs were in pain and it was extremely difficult to get on and off. The visibility was subpar- the roof covering blocks views so you have literally very little photo opps. Our guide did not have an enough knowledge and English communication skills to provide a proper "guided tour". This cost us $160 euros and quite frankly, we should have just booked a private tour with a proper vehicle to get more value. We have taken MANY guided tours on travel, and this was the worst one.

Eddie and Diogo were amazing! We had so much fun along with informative history of Lisbon. I must say, it was a much easier and more pleasant way of getting about town than walking. My teenage son loved it, he normally complains about my love of history. The guys were great and couldn’t have asked for a better afternoon. It is a must!!!!

Top guides, top segways! Very safe, a lot of fun. Seen the whole hilly city while cruising on the great segways.

Nicole G

Fun tour with Eddie! He was very patient with us learning to Segway safely, and he gave us a great tour around Lisbon. With the hills, we were able to cover much more ground with the Segway than a walking tour.

This tour was is not for the faint of heart. The streets of Lisbon are cobbled stone, there are many, many hills, heavy traffic, and tourists to navigate. Johnny, our guide, gave us a thorough lesson and very good advice prior to hitting the streets. I was glad we were on a Segway while touring because we were able to see much more of the city than if we had been walking. We were only in Lisbon for one day so we only saw a fraction of the city, but what we saw was beautiful and Johnny was knowledgeable and filled us in on many historical details of the city.

Awesome way to see the old city. Our guide John was wonderful, he had us practice and it was great. It was so much fun. My husband and I are 63, no problem for us to do it.

Paolo was great! Hills were a little scary to begin with but he talked me through it and was very patient… made me feel safe.

Andrew_L

We had an awesome experience and also had a great guide. Mattiu was an excellent guide, really knowledgeable and he also kept it interesting for our 12 and 15 year old too. The segway tour itself was fantastic. Excellent viewing spots, some really fun scooting on narrow and steep streets. Lots of fun
