What to expect on the day
Your guide drives you up Lisbon’s steep hills to viewpoints, through historic neighborhoods such as Alfama and along narrow lanes that are hard to reach on foot. The tuk tuks have transparent roofs for the views, a microphone for commentary, blankets and rain covers. Many tours stop in Belém, where you can buy the famous custard tarts.

- Not included: Gratuities and food, such as pastries in Belém.
What to bring

Tips for a better day
- Pick-up: Confirm your pick-up point before the tour. If you stay outside the city center, meet the guide at Avenida da Liberdade 3, next to the Glória funicular.
- Be on time: Late arrivals shorten the tour, and delays of more than 30 minutes mean cancellation with no refund.
- Group size: A tuk tuk fits up to 6 people, but 4 is more comfortable. Larger groups need to book more than one.
Who it’s best for
Best for: First-time visitors, couples and small groups who want to see a lot of Lisbon without climbing its hills.
Consider another option if: You have back or knee problems, or you travel with children under 7. The sunset sailing tour is a smoother way to see the city.
