About this activity

Join me for a one-of-a-kind walk with someone who was born and raised right in Lisbon’s heart (LISBOETA) — and who’s madly in love with this city. This isn’t just a tour, it’s a journey through time: from medieval alleys to modern vibes. It’s a mix of stories, culture, traditions, and architecture, all shaken into one unforgettable experience. Along the way, I’ll share my favorite local spots — restaurants and hidden gems I know by heart.

The philosophy of this experience is "pay what you think it's worth." You are free to pay according to your level of satisfaction.

The main picture shows me with Gibram, my partner in exploring Lisbon. We spend hours walking through the city’s hidden corners, where there’s always a new story, detail, or unexpected discovery around the corner.

Gibram doesn’t join the tours, but he definitely helps me discover the stories and little details that I bring with me to share with you.

Itinerary

Miradouro Sao Pedro de Alcantara

10 min

Welcome to São Pedro de Alcântara. A spot where Lisbon lays itself out like a postcard. This is where you press pause, snap a pic, and take in the city’s patchwork: from Alfama’s hills to the downtown Tagus River.

Back in the ‘70s, this was a peaceful place for locals to chat about life over a bica (espresso). Now? It’s where street musicians jam with the skyline and locals argue over which rooftop has the best sunset. (Spoiler: it’s probably this one.)
Stop 2

10 min

Looks humble on the outside, but inside? Pure gold — literally. This church is one of the oldest Jesuit churches in the world and a baroque beauty. They say the Chapel of Saint John the Baptist is the most expensive in the world — and once you step inside, you’ll understand why.
Bairro Alto

Passing by

Bairro Alto – Rebels, Rockers & Really Good Wine

Bairro Alto is where Lisbon lets its hair down. In the '70s, it was a hideout for journalists, thinkers, and maybe the odd revolutionary whispering about freedom. Now? It’s party central.

By day, it’s calm — sleepy even. But by night, it turns into a chaotic, lovable mix of live music, craft beer This is Lisbon’s heartbeat after dark — just try not to get lost in its tiny streets.
Chiado

10 min

Classy and Literary..

After a devastating hearthquake of Lisbon, Chiado rose from the ashes — literally — and rebranded itself as the chic, intellectual quarter. Poets, painters, writers and journalist, left his mark on the neighbourhood..

Bookshops, concept stores, cafes and theaters, this is where old Lisbon elegance flirts with modern taste.
Elevador de Santa Justa

10 min

Santa Justa Lift – Vintage Charm with a Steel Backbone.

Built in 1902, the Santa Justa Lift was Lisbon’s vertical metro before it was cool.

Now it’s both practical and iconic — the city’s industrial-chic tribute to progress. The views up top? Stunning. The wait time? Legendary. It looks a time machine, who knows...
Praca Da Figueira

10 min

Just steps away, Bacalhoeira Silva smells like the soul of Portugal: salt cod stacked like edible archives, each piece a chapter of seafaring history. In this temple of fish, you’ll find the scent of grandmothers’ kitchens and stories cured over centuries.
Igreja De S Domingos

10 min

Tucked just off Rossio, this square is small but powerful. It holds stories of tragedy, resilience, and rebirth. In recent decades, it’s become a hub of Afro-Portuguese culture and one of the most vibrant, multicultural corners of the city.

Want real local flavor? Grab a ginjinha (cherry liqueur) at the little bar nearby. Trust me, it's a rite of passage. :)
Praca Dom Pedro IV

Passing by

Rossio is where Lisbon meets — protesters, performers, pigeons, and pastry lovers. It’s seen it all: royal parades, revolutions, and yes, even football fans crying into their beers.
Largo do Carmo

10 min Admission not included

Today it’s one of Lisbon’s most peaceful spots, but on April 25th, 1974, it was the center of Portugal’s peaceful revolution. Soldiers surrounded the building here, the government fell, and someone handed a flower to a soldier... and history was made.

Now you’ll find people sipping coffee where democracy once bloomed. That's Lisbon for you — beauty, bravery, and espresso, all in one square.
Convento do Carmo

Passing by

The roofless Carmo Convent isn’t broken — it’s just open-minded. Destroyed in the 1755 earthquake, never rebuilt, and somehow more beautiful for it.

Since the '90s, it’s been repurposed for art exhibits, live concerts, and the occasional DJ set under the stars. A mix of Gothic bones and modern soul. Come for the ruins, stay for the vibes.

Meeting point and pickup

Everyone meets at the meeting point.

Meeting point

I will be there in front of the fountain with a green umbrella.

End point

We finish the tour at Carmo Square, the birthplace of our democracy, a very special and meaningful place.
