Itinerary and highlights

One of Lisbon’s most iconic landmarks, the Belém Tower is a 16th-century fortification that once guarded the entrance to the city’s harbor. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the tower offers a fascinating glimpse into Manueline architecture and a stunning riverside setting.

Located on the banks of the Tagus River, this large and majestic square is the heart of Lisbon. Surrounded by historic buildings, Praça do Comércio was once the royal palace and is now an important meeting point, with spectacular views of the river.

This modern monument pays homage to the Portuguese explorers who explored new worlds during the Age of Discovery. Located on the banks of the Tagus, the Padrão dos Descobrimentos depicts historical figures and offers panoramic views of Lisbon and the river.

One of the longest suspension bridges in Europe, the 25 de Abril Bridge is often compared to San Francisco's Golden Gate. Connecting Lisbon to Almada, it is a symbol of the city's modernity and offers spectacular views, especially at sunset.

Inspired by Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, the imposing monument offers a panoramic view of Lisbon and the Tagus, being a religious and tourist landmark.
