Highlights
Mouraria is Lisbon’s Moorish district and is considered one of the most intriguing neighborhoods in Lisbon. The neighborhood has recently become a multicultural and bustling enclave, unlike any other part of the city. It has also been subjected to radical urban renewal, some still ongoing, and is often under public scrutiny. During this 3-hour private walking tour, wander into Mouraria's narrow streets, alleys, and romantic dwellings. Learn about the traditional music form of ‘fado’ and observe new street art that has taken over old areas. See how the area has changed throughout history and learn stories about its former inhabitants. This private tour can be customized to suit your interests and offers a more personalized experience than traveling with a group. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to see one of Lisbon’s most radically changing neighborhoods.

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.
