Points forts

The Tiles (azulejo in Portuguese) is one of the strongest cultural expressions in Portugal. With this tour we'll check, mostly outdoors, tiles artworks from the 16th till the 21st century. It's a special opportunity to meet Lisbon in a totally different perspective. I'll tell you unique stories and we'll visit unexpected places. The itinerary is about tiles but never dissociated of the history and the stories. To end the tour we will have the opportunity to taste a codfish cake. Expect the Unexpected

About Lisbonne

Lisbonne dévale ses collines jusqu'à l'estuaire du Tage : façades d'azulejos, tramways jaunes bringuebalants, miradouros et dîners tardifs sans hâte.

Les vieux quartiers concentrent l'essentiel du charme. L'enchevêtrement de ruelles de l'Alfama grimpe vers le château Saint-Georges et résonne de fado le soir, la grille ordonnée de la Baixa descend jusqu'à la vaste place du Commerce, au bord du fleuve, et le Bairro Alto et le Chiado mêlent librairies et cafés le jour, bars la nuit. Des miradouros comme Santa Luzia et Senhora do Monte encadrent les toits rouges et l'eau scintillante.

Top-ranked sights in Lisbonne: Commerce Square (Praça do Comércio), Pena National Palace (Palacio Nacional da Pena), Alfama.
