Lisbon is built on seven hills, and walking between its main sights can be tiring. A half-day private tour with a driver lets you see the highlights comfortably in around four hours.
What a half-day tour typically covers
- Belém. Jerónimos Monastery, Belém Tower and the Monument to the Discoveries, along the river. The original pastéis de Belém are nearby.
- Praça do Comércio and Baixa. The grand riverside square and the elegant grid of streets rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake.
- Alfama and the Cathedral. The oldest quarter, with narrow alleys, the Sé and São Jorge Castle above.
- Viewpoints. Miradouros such as Senhora do Monte and Santa Luzia for panoramic views.
- Parque das Nações. The modern riverside district built for Expo 98, with the Oceanarium.
Why a driver helps
- Skip steep climbs and tram queues.
- Reach spread-out sights in one morning or afternoon.
- Stop where you like for photos.
- Comfortable for families and older travellers.
