Itinerary and highlights

Rossio Square or Praça do Rossio, officially called Praça D. Pedro IV, is Lisbon’s nerve centre. The square is situated in the city’s Baixa neighborhood.

Church located on São Domingos square.

The most expensive and fancy avenue in Lisbon.

The square is dedicated to the restoration of the independence of Portugal in 1640, after 60 years of Spanish domination. The obelisk in the middle of the square, inaugurated in 1886, carries the names and dates of the battles fought during the Portuguese Restoration War, in 1640.

One of the most impressive building on the historical center, the exterior was inspired by the 16th century Manueline architecture

Either due to the XIV century convent or the Carnation Revolution in 1974, this small square marked Lisbon's history

One of the most interesting monuments in the historic center where you can admire a breathtaking view

Elegant neighborhood developed in the 19th century for the city's intellectual and wealthy elites, it is possible to take a trip back in time just by admiring the facades of the shops and cafes that have survived the passage of the years

The main street in the city center in Lisbon

Completely rebuilt after the earthquake of the 18th century, obeying new rules of urbanism and antiseismic architecture, based on extremely innovative solutions for its time, it is still the heart of the city.

Panoramic View

The oldest neighborhoods of Lisbon. Well known for Fado music and narrow streets

Jose I , "The Reformer", was the King of Portugal from 31 July 1750 until his death. Among other activities, Joseph was devoted to hunting and the opera. Indeed, he assembled one of the greatest collections of operatic scores in Europe.

The Praça do Comércio - Commerce square is located in the city of Lisbon, Portugal. Situated near the Tagus river, the square is still commonly known as Terreiro do Paço because it was the location of the Paços da Ribeira (Royal Ribeira Palace) until it was destroyed by the great 1755 Lisbon earthquake. After the earthquake, the square was completely remodeled as part of the rebuilding of the Pombaline Downtown.

Meeting and pickup information

  • Meet by the statue in the large square with two fountains and a tall column topped with a man. Look for the guide with a blue badge and a blue bag or black backpack. If you see a man on a horse, you're in the wrong square. For ride-shares, select Praça Dom Pedro IV in Lisbon (not Queluz)
