Full Description

Spend three enthralling hours walking the old town with a local guide who knows it inside out. We move through Chiado, Rossio, and Baixa at an unhurried pace, mostly downhill, with plenty of time to stop and look. 

What sets this tour apart is the shops. We visit around 15 of Lisbon's government-protected Lojas com História, and we go inside them, something no other tour in the city offers. You'll see the landmarks Lisbon is known for, from grand riverfront squares to century-old funiculars. And you’ll hear the stories behind them, for a real introduction to Portugal's history and culture.

And (included in the tour price) you'll taste two local favorites: a pastel de nata, Portugal's famous custard tart, and a glass of ginja, Lisbon's much-loved cherry liqueur. 

Along the way:

• The world's oldest operating bookshop, Livraria Bertrand, trading since 1732
• The original home of Ginja, the cherry liqueur Lisbon is known for, since 1840
• Casa do Alentejo, a 17th-century Moorish-style palace tucked behind a plain street entrance
• Igreja de São Domingos, a church dating to 1241, still scarred by the fire of 1959
• The Elevador da Bica funicular, cobblestone streets, and hand-painted tiles
• Praça do Comércio on the riverfront and the grand square at Rossio
• Fun, easy-to-follow stories about Portugal's history, food, and traditions
• A stop for a pastel de nata  and a ginjinha  if you fancy one, at two of the best spots in the city
