Lisbon Day Trip by Private Van

Description

Short on time but want to see everything in Lisbon? This full-day private van tour is your answer. Over six hours, you’ll explore Lisbon from its oldest neighborhoods to its grand riverside monuments, with stories and panoramic views packed into one unforgettable day.

Starting at Restauradores Square, we cruise through Alfama’s medieval maze, admire the 12th-century Sé Cathedral, and take in sweeping views from Portas do Sol and Senhora do Monte. In Bairro Alto and Chiado, discover the landmarks of Lisbon’s literary and artistic past. Then, ride through Príncipe Real and Estrela to the elegant domes of the National Pantheon and Basilica da Estrela.

In the afternoon, we follow the Tagus to Belém—once the launch point of Portugal’s explorers. See the Jerónimos Monastery, Torre de Belém, and the Monument to the Discoveries. We’ll also stop at Pastéis de Belém, home of the city’s iconic custard tarts (tart not included).

If you want the full story of Lisbon in one day, this is it.
