What you can expect

Discover where Lisbon began with our Alfama and Mouraria Walking Tour, a journey through more than 3.000 years of history.

Lisbon is one of the oldest cities in Europe, and its storey starts in the historic districts of Alfama and Mouraria. Phoenicians, Romans, Visigoths and Moors once lived here, shaping the cultural identity that still defines Lisbon today. In 1147, D. Afonso Henriques, the first King of Portugal, conquered the city making a turning point in Portuguese history.
These neighbourhoods were among the best preserved after the 1755 Great Lisbon Earthquake, making them essential stops on any Lisbon historical Tour.

Wander through narrow medieval streets
Admire traditional Portuguese azulejos
