Itinerario
Iniziamo il tour verso la cima di Santa Justa Lift, una delle icone di Lisbona, uno splendido ascensore in stile neogotico costruito nel XIX secolo da Raoul Mesnier du Ponsard. La vista dall'alto ci permette di vedere tutto il centro di Lisbona, il castello e la Cattedrale di Lisbona.
Dopo l'ascensore passiamo da chiado e lungo il fiume guidiamo a Belém, la parte imperialista e più monumentale di Lisbona. Parliamo della storia delle scoperte portoghesi sul mare e degli importanti navigatori, come Vasco da Gama e Pedro Álvares Cabral. A questo punto visiteremo l'aspettativa cattedrale di Santa Maria di Belém, una delle più grandiose cattedrali gotiche del Portogallo.
Ora è il momento di assaggiare il famoso "Pastel de Nata" portoghese, una crostata di coustard servita calda in questa famosa caffetteria che produce questo prodotto dal 1837, seguendo una vecchia ricetta dei monaci che vivevano nella porta accanto.
Ora è il momento di passare sul lato del fiume, in auto, e dirigersi verso la torre di Belém, un'altra enorme icona di Lisbona, e massima espressione dell'arquitechture portoghese, lo stile manuelino
A seguire, ci dirigeremo verso il fantastico monumento delle scoperte, un'enorme statua, costruita nel 1940 per rendere omaggio a tutte le persone coinvolte nell'era delle scoperte, sicuramente la nostra era d'oro.
Dopo aver lasciato Belém, lasceremo Lisbona per un breve periodo e ci dirigeremo verso la città di Almada, proprio lì nel margine meridionale del fiume Tago. Dal ponte del 25 aprile arriviamo a questo santuario, con la migliore e più panoramica vista su Lisbona (si può andare in cima alla statua di 100 m).
Adesso è ora di pranzo, andiamo a Cacilhas, il molo di Almada dove puoi prendere il miglior pesce di Lisbona e dintorni.
Dopo pranzo torneremo a Lisbona e ci dirigeremo verso la città vecchia di Lisbona, lungo il fiume, passando per Alcântara, il quartiere di Santos e la piazza Cais do Sodré con il suo famoso Time Out Market. Prima di salire in cima alla collina di Graça, passiamo lungo la piazza del Comercio, la piazza più grande e magnifica di Lisbona, proprio accanto al fiume.
Lasciando il fiume e risalendo il castello e la collina di Graça, passiamo accanto alla Cattedrale di Lisbona, un edificio romanico che fu costruito nel XII secolo, diventando il monumento più antico di Lisbona, ancora in uso. Seguendo la strada fino a Graça, passiamo dalla visita di Portas do Sol, proprio sotto il castello di Lisbona.
Quando raggiungiamo la cima della collina di Graça ci fermiamo al punto panoramico di Senhora do Monte, per approfittare di tutta la bellezza della città che si estende lungo le colline fino al fiume.
Ultimo ma non meno importante, parcheggiamo l'auto e facciamo una passeggiata nel quartiere di Alfama, il più antico e autentico di Lisbona. Possiamo far cadere l'autenticità del luogo e comprendere il contesto sociale di centinaia di generazioni che sono passate e vissute in questo luogo. Questo è il posto dove è nata la musica Fado. Alla fine della camminata ci fermiamo al museo del Fado e la guida porta la macchina per il ritiro.

We had an amazing day exploring Lisbon with Joao! He was punctual, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the city’s history and culture. What really stood out was how he took us beyond the usual tourist spots — showing us local favorites and hidden gems we never would’ve found on our own. Joao’s passion for Lisbon made the whole experience special, and he tailored the day perfectly to our interests. If you want to truly see the heart of the city and learn from someone who loves it, I can’t recommend Joao enough!
Thank you very much Blake and family, it was a real pleasure to tour you around Portugal. All the best my friend
Our tour of Sintra with Joao was incredible! His knowledge, sense of humor and warmth made the day truly unforgettable! The gorgeous scenery, delicious food and learning the history of this beautiful region was special. We didn’t feel like we were on an “tour” but traveling with a local friend. Our day with Joao was perfection!
Thank you very much, my goal is to my guests to feel that they are visiting with a local friend, learning and visiting in a easygoing and relaxed way. We did Sintra and Lisbon in two different days and it was a pleasure to host you, All the best
Joao was a great host! This was a perfect way to get an overview of the entire city. We hit all the highlights. Recommended.
Thank you very much Linda, it was a pleasure to host you around Lisbon, all the best
Travel can be challenging in general, but traveling with special needs requires additional adaptability and patience. We can be hesitant if not outright skeptical of adventures with my son and (autistic) daughter in unfamiliar places. But Joao changed all that... Over the course of seven days, we toured Lisbon, Sintra, Cascais, Cabo de Roca, Óbidos, Aveiro, Porto, and a brief excursion to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. Over that period, we had an air flight delay (upon arrival), (limited) attraction closures due to the possibility of forest fires, and other uncontrollable circumstances. It didn't matter. We had a thoroughly enjoyable time. Joao knows Portugal and can pivot with the best of them! He will pay attention as he gets to know his clients, propose adjustments or share his personal insights to not just guide you - but acclimate you to Portugal. His grasp of the country - its culture, economy, history, gastronomy, night life, influence on other countries, etc. - is limitless. We always had a reasonable game plan for the day, but flexibility to adjust based on my daughter's capabilities. It's also important to note that Joao was curious. He (respectfully) asked questions to learn more about my daughter and how she saw things, processed her surroundings, etc. It showed me that he wanted to make this an unforgettable experience for her - and he was going to figure it out! As for my son, they loved quizzing each other on geography, politics, and generally laughing along the way. Joao shared stories of his adventures with his children and we all felt like we were no longer with a tour operator but a family friend. We were traveling with extended family on this trip, and we all had positive, reaffirming moments where Joao took time to connect, to share and to engage. We are so glad that we had this adventure in Portugal, but we are truly grateful that our family had it with Joao.
Thank you from the heart RoseAnn, your words means a lot to me. It was fantastic to learn and see how you masterly managed Amber along our trip was really an inspiration. I loved our trip, you have a wonderfull family and for sure we see again, on this side or that side of the Atlantic. A big hug from Lisbon
My extended family (7 of us) were treated royally by Joao who managed to plan and execute an ambitious 9-day tour of Lisbon, Sintra, Porto, Obidos, Evora and Galicia (ES), such that a couple in their golden years were just as entertained as their 13-year-old grandson. Joao is gregarious, engaging and acutely sensitive to the needs of his clients, adapting with grace and facility to contingencies. While the trip was planned to almost every detail, his wit, charm and persistence secured favorable outcomes for us with vendors he knows and does not know (e.g. last-minute tables, tickets, etc.). His encyclopedic knowledge of Portuguese history, culture and international affairs sparked spirited dialogue with mutual respect and learning during our long drives and tours. Most of all, Joao's passion and love for his home country is infectious and left us with a keen interest in returning to explore more (hopefully with him)! Go Green!
Ohh my, what a review. I can't thank you enough for your amazing words. We had a blast all together, it was a fantastic trip with the best company. Thank you very much, looking forward to our next adventures. All the best
We had two great tour days with João. He was very informative, and quickly knew what we liked and how to tailor the day for us. I would highly recommend João to anyone looking for a fantastic, energetic, knowledgeable and fun guide who has tons of experience throughout Portugal.
