On this tour you explore the heart of the historic centre of Lisbon. By visiting the main squares and seeing the sites, seeing fabulous views from different viewpoints, exploring the oldest neighbourhood in Lisbon and one of the oldest in Europe - Alfama.

- It is possible to do the tour on a wheelchair or with a baby carriage, although there are areas with steps like in Alfama where you will have to carry the child/person.
- If you are very unfit I would advise against. Lisbon has 7 hills, you will be walking up and down for about 5 km.
