With everything pre-arranged, you’ll skip the queues and dive straight into authentic flavours as your expert local guide leads you from the Tagus River through grand squares and historic landmarks like the Igreja do Santo Domingo, while sharing the story of “new Lisbon” rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake.

Along the way, we'll try traditional petiscos, savour seafood staples, sample iconic street food like the bifana, and enjoy perfectly paired drinks including Vinho Verde, local beer, and Ginjinha.
