Your Itinerary
Your day, step by step
Day 1
Lisbon
Sightseeing at Lisbon Baixa. Baixa is the downtown district of Lisbon, Portugal, and serves as the commercial and architectural heart of the city. Known for its grand, neoclassical buildings, wide boulevards, and elegant squares, Baixa was extensively rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake, which destroyed much of the older part of the city. This reconstruction, led by the Marquis of Pombal, transformed Baixa into a well-planned grid of streets that remain one of Lisbon’s most important urban landmarks. Baixa is home to some of Lisbon’s most famous squares, such as Praça do Comércio, a majestic riverside square, and Rossio Square, a lively hub surrounded by cafés and shops. The district is also known for its beautiful Arco da Rua Augusta, a monumental arch leading to the river, and the Santa Justa Lift, an iconic wrought-iron elevator offering views of the city. Today, Baixa is a bustling, modern center with a mix of retail shops, restaurants, and offices, while still retaining a sense of its historical grandeur.

Lisbon
Sightseeing at Alfama. Alfama is one of the oldest and most iconic neighborhoods in Lisbon, Portugal, known for its narrow, winding streets, traditional buildings, and vibrant cultural heritage. Situated on a hill overlooking the Tagus River, Alfama has retained much of its historic charm, with a maze-like layout that harks back to the Moorish era. It is famous for its steep alleys, colorful houses, and stunning viewpoints (miradouros) offering panoramic views of the city. Alfama is closely associated with Fado, the traditional Portuguese music genre, and many Fado restaurants and intimate venues can be found in the neighborhood. The area is also home to important landmarks like the São Jorge Castle, the Lisbon Cathedral (Sé de Lisboa), and the National Pantheon. Despite being a popular tourist destination, Alfama has a strong sense of local identity and is known for its tight-knit community, traditional shops, and eateries serving authentic Portuguese cuisine.

Lisbon
Sightseeing at Chiado. Chiado is a historic and fashionable neighborhood in the center of Lisbon, Portugal, known for its vibrant cultural scene, elegant architecture, and cosmopolitan atmosphere. Situated between the neighborhoods of Baixa and Bairro Alto, Chiado has long been a hub for artists, intellectuals, and creatives. The area is famous for its beautiful squares, traditional cafés, art galleries, theaters, and luxury shops. Landmark sites include the historic Café A Brasileira, the famous Livraria Bertrand (the world's oldest operating bookstore), and the São Carlos Theater. Chiado blends Lisbon's rich cultural heritage with modern sophistication, offering a dynamic mix of old and new, where historic buildings coexist with contemporary design. It's also a popular spot for both locals and tourists, providing a lively yet refined setting for dining, shopping, and entertainment.

Lisbon
Sightseeing at Bairro Alto. Bairro Alto is a historic and lively neighborhood in the heart of Lisbon, Portugal, renowned for its vibrant nightlife, bohemian atmosphere, and rich cultural heritage. Perched on one of Lisbon’s seven hills, Bairro Alto is a maze of narrow, cobblestone streets filled with an eclectic mix of traditional and contemporary establishments, including bars, restaurants, and boutique shops. It is particularly famous for its thriving nightlife scene, attracting both locals and tourists with its abundance of Fado music venues, trendy bars, and late-night cafes. Despite its lively reputation, Bairro Alto has a long history that dates back to the 16th century, and its charming buildings, with colorful facades and wrought-iron balconies, reflect the neighborhood’s character. By day, Bairro Alto offers a more relaxed atmosphere, with antique shops, art galleries, and cozy cafes, but as evening falls, the area transforms into one of Lisbon’s most animated spots.

Joao was incredible. Not to be hyperbolic, but I have to believe he is one of the very best in the city! He is a recent history graduate, and his wealth of information and command of dates, facts, and history was incredible!! We learned and saw so much. It was the perfect way to spend two hours whilst jet-lagged and trying to make it til 9pm before we went to bed (success). Highly recommend.

We had the pleasure of having CARLOS as our tour guide. Not only was he punctual, polite but extremely knowledgeable. We learned so much history in 2 hours. We stopped at all the hot spots for photo, churches and even a local that has one of the best pastel de nata in the neighborhood. Highly recommended this tuk tuk tour and company. You get what you pay for and Carolos was well worth it. Thank you project expedition and I hope you know how valuable Carlos is for your company.
