Your experience

Time Travel, Tarts & Towering Tales

Hop into a comfy minivan and kick off your half-day adventure through Lisbon and Belém, where history isn’t just told—it’s felt. As you cruise through the city's most iconic sights, your expert guide will set the stage with tales of fearless explorers and golden-age discoveries. First stop? The striking Belém Tower, a Manueline marvel that once guarded Lisbon’s shores. Fun fact: this tower has been both a fortress and a prison—so let’s just say it has some stories to tell. Just a stone’s throw away, stand before the Monument of Discoveries, shaped like a ship’s prow, as your guide unpacks Portugal’s age of sea conquests. These landmarks aren’t just Instagram gold; they’re symbols of a nation that once ruled the waves.

Marvel at the UNESCO-listed Jerónimos Monastery from the outside, where cinnamon and spice money (literally) funded its intricate architecture. Marvel at the grand columns, and picture monks praying for sailors setting out on uncertain journeys. Then, meander through Lisbon’s historic neighborhood of Chiado, also known as the capital's cultural and commercial heart. You might even hear the melancholic strains of fado music, Portugal’s soulful soundtrack. Finally, wrap up your tour at the city’s buzzing squares—Praça do Comércio, Rossio, and Marquês de Pombal—where past meets present. And because no trip to Lisbon is complete without one, enjoy a freshly baked Pastel de Belém from a local bakery. Pro tip: legend has it, if you eat one without licking your fingers, you’re doing it wrong.
