Itinerary and highlights

The Lisbon Cathedral (Sé de Lisboa) is the oldest church in the city, built in 1147 on the site of a former mosque. Located in the foothills of the Alfama district, it’s a fortress-like Romanesque structure with Gothic rose windows and twin crenellated towers. Inside, you'll find a Gothic cloister (uncovered after the 1755 earthquake) and a treasury with relics. It’s a must-see landmark that blends military austerity with centuries of architectural history.

Miradouro de Santa Luzia is one of Lisbon's most charming viewpoints, located in Alfama just a short walk from the cathedral.

Alfama is Lisbon’s oldest and most iconic district, a maze of narrow cobbled streets, colorful tiled buildings, and steep staircases. Perched between São Jorge Castle and the Tagus River, it survived the 1755 earthquake largely intact, preserving its medieval layout. Known for melancholic Fado music echoing from intimate restaurants, it’s filled with hidden plazas, laundry-lined balconies, and stunning river views from the Miradouro de Santa Luzia.

Miradouro das Portas do Sol is one of Lisbon's most breathtaking viewpoints, located at the edge of the Alfama district. It offers a postcard-perfect panorama: the terracotta rooftops of Alfama, the Tagus River dotted with boats, and São Jorge Castle looming above.

The Panteão Nacional (National Pantheon) is the stunning Baroque final resting place of Portugal's most celebrated heroes, located in the Campo de Santa Clara square in the Alfama district.

The Mosteiro de São Vicente de Fora is a monumental 16th-century church and former monastery located atop a hill in Alfama, just east of the National Pantheon .

Miradouro da Senhora do Monte is the highest viewpoint in Lisbon, offering arguably the most spectacular and unobstructed panorama of the city.

Guided tour in city Center

LX Factory is a trendy creative hub located in the Alcântara district, just west of the historic center and underneath the iconic 25 de Abril Bridge. Unlike the medieval streets of Alfama, this is a revitalized 19th-century industrial complex that has been transformed into one of Lisbon's coolest cultural hotspots .

Pastéis de Belém are the legendary Portuguese custard tarts from a bakery in the Belém district, widely considered the original "Pastel de Nata" .

The Jerónimos Monastery (Mosteiro dos Jerónimos) is the crowning jewel of the Belém district and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, often described as the most impressive symbol of Portugal's Age of Discovery.

The Monument to the Discoveries (Padrão dos Descobrimentos) is the striking ship-shaped landmark on the riverbank in Belém, celebrating Portugal's Age of Exploration .

Torre de Belém (Belém Tower) is the iconic fortress that serves as a ceremonial gateway to Lisbon. Built between 1514 and 1520, it was designed as a state-of-the-art military fort to defend the mouth of the Tagus River, but it quickly became a symbol of Portugal's Age of Discovery.
