Highlights
Discover Alfama as you’ve never seen it before — from sunset into the night. This private walking experience takes you through hidden lanes, ancient stairways and atmospheric corners of Lisbon’s oldest neighbourhood. Along the way, I’ll share fascinating stories, local legends and unexpected details about Alfama’s history and everyday life. You’ll discover the tradition of fado vadio and I’ll sing a fado for you. We’ll also explore traditional restaurants and taverns and I’ll share personal recommendations for experiencing local food and life. This is not a conventional sightseeing tour. It is a personal encounter with Alfama, combining history, legends, music, food and local life. The experience is completely private and adapted to you — whether you are travelling alone, as a couple or with your family.

About Lisbon
Lisbon spills down its hills to the Tagus estuary, a city of tiled façades, rattling yellow trams, viewpoint terraces and late, unhurried dinners.
The old quarters hold most of the charm. Alfama's tangle of lanes climbs to São Jorge Castle and echoes with fado in the evening, the Baixa's orderly grid runs down to the vast Praça do Comércio on the river, and Bairro Alto and Chiado mix bookshops and cafés by day with bars by night. Viewpoints such as Santa Luzia and Senhora do Monte frame red rooftops and shining water.
Top-ranked sights in Lisbon: Commerce Square (Praça do Comércio), Pena National Palace (Palacio Nacional da Pena), Alfama.
