Loopitour

Tourist attraction

👍👍 The bike tour with Taïbat was fantastic. The route was very well planned - first a part through the city with interesting information about the history and special places in Lisbon and then along the Tagus to Belem or further - depending on your wishes and riding level. Because Taïbat adapts the tou...

Heden Graça

Coworking space

👍👍 I had an amazing experience at Heden from the moment I walked in and I had the privilege to stay for one month. They really do an amazing job of building a sense of community.

Cooking Lisbon

Culinary school

👍👍 While we were initially put off by the price, this ended up being a fabulous activity and worth every euro! The session and apparently the organization are very well organized and very customer focused. Chef Pedro was personable, entertaining and informative as he led us to the market to select ingr...

Juniper tree arbor

Park

👍👍 The Príncipe Real cedar is the oldest tree classified in the Portuguese capital due to recognition of its public interest. Its 150 years of age prove the resilience of this tree, admired by Lisbon residents and tourists. Seven meters high and with an unusual configuration, the monumental and centur...

Museu do Lactário

History museum

👍👍 An absolute must visit this museum if you are even the slightest bit interested in the history of Lisbon and especially the Alfama district. In the building where the "milk station" and a facility for premature babies was founded at the beginning of the 20th century, impressive documents from that t...

Blue Umbrellas

Tourist attraction

👍👍 Kike explained to us details and customs of the people of the neighborhood that without the free tour it would be impossible to understand. I liked everything, but especially how he made sure that the group was as least intrusive as possible in the daily life of the streets. A 10 /10

👍👍 A magical place !

Beco da Bicha

Tourist attraction

👍👍 Love this old Alfama district road. It’s got personality, but is easy to get lost on. Recommend you don’t try to carry a lot of luggage as this small road has cobblestone flooring and is not easy to pull a lot of suitcases on. Be prepared for a lot of twists and turns, and stairs. Lots of stairs!!

Fonte Norte do Rossio

Tourist attraction

👍 This is one of two twin ornamental fountains that you will see at Rossio Square. The fountain is shaped like a chalice with standing cherubs in the mid level above seated allegorical figures. Water spills into a circular basin from which four additional mermaid like statue figures rise. It is an att...

Jardim Fialho de Almeida

Park

👍👍 Little, but very beautiful and cozy park. As usual I used to had my lunch here when I worked nearby. Now I just walk through time to time and always enjoy being here. Space with fountain, surrounded by tiny houses, curvy streets and few shops/cafes. No needs to come here on purpose, but if you are s...
