Discover Lisbon and its region with style

Amazing experience. I have recently relocated to Lisbon and was looking for an original experience to discover the city and its surroundings. Retro Tour is the perfect way to do this, enjoy the scenery and the sunny autumn weather in Portugal. Very comfortable and safe ride on the Lisbon and Arrabida scenic roads. Staff was very friendly and professional. Would definitely recommend Retro Tour, a unique way to discover the region.

great guided tour of Sesimbra

My experience with the Sesimbra sidecar tour, guided by Stéphane and Fred , was simply extraordinary! As soon as we left the city center, we were immediately immersed in the natural beauty of Sesimbra. The majestic cliffs plunging into the Atlantic Ocean, the golden sandy beaches and the small hidden coves offered a breathtaking panorama. Stéphane and Fred took us through winding roads, revealing spectacular views of the sea, green hills and picturesque fishing harbour. Their in-depth knowledge of the region and their stories about Sesimbra’s history enriched every moment. A total immersion in nature and local culture, aboard a sidecar that added a touch of nostalgia and adventure to this discovery. Many thanks to them for this unforgettable and long-lived trip to Retro tour Lisboa
