Itinerary and highlights
Baixa de Lisboa is the elegant heart of Lisbon, rebuilt after the devastating 1755 earthquake. Its grand squares, neoclassical architecture, lively cafés, and bustling streets blend centuries of history with vibrant local life, making it the perfect place to experience the city's timeless charm.
Rua Augusta is Lisbon's most famous pedestrian street, connecting Rossio Square to Praça do Comércio. Lined with elegant 18th-century buildings, lively cafés, boutiques, and street performers, it captures the city's vibrant atmosphere and serves as the bustling heart of downtown Lisbon.
Chiado is Lisbon's elegant cultural and shopping district, where historic cafés, iconic bookstores, theatres, and designer boutiques create a sophisticated atmosphere. Blending literary heritage with modern style, Chiado is the perfect place to experience the city's artistic spirit and timeless charm.
Rossio Square is one of Lisbon's most vibrant and historic squares, serving as the city's social heart for centuries. Famous for its distinctive black-and-white wave-patterned pavement, elegant fountains, and the statue of King Pedro IV, Rossio is surrounded by cafés, theatres, and historic buildings that capture the lively spirit of the Portuguese capital.
Casa do Alentejo is a hidden Moorish-inspired gem in the heart of Lisbon. Housed in a 17th-century palace, it enchants visitors with its stunning tiled courtyards, ornate arches, and richly decorated halls. Originally an aristocratic residence, it now celebrates the culture and gastronomy of the Alentejo region, offering an unforgettable blend of history, architecture, and traditional Portuguese cuisine.
A Ginjinha is Lisbon's most iconic spot to taste ginjinha, Portugal's famous sour cherry liqueur. Serving locals and visitors since 1840, this tiny historic bar offers the traditional drink either com elas (with cherries) or sem elas (without), providing a delicious taste of one of Lisbon's oldest and most beloved traditions.
