## Overview

Explore Lisbon’s oldest quarter and most iconic monuments on this 4-hour Tuk Tuk tour of Alfama and Belém. Includes a visit to the original custard tart factory.

Looking for the most complete Lisbon experience in just one ride? This half-day Tuk Tuk tour blends two of the city’s most important areas—Alfama and Belém—into one seamless journey through time.

We begin in the cobbled streets of Alfama, Lisbon’s oldest neighborhood. Stops include the 12th-century Sé Cathedral, historic viewpoints, and the National Pantheon. 

Then, we shift west to Belém. Your guide will take you past the Torre de Belém, the Monument to the Discoveries, and the Jerónimos Monastery—monuments that define the Age of Exploration. Also included is a tour of the original Pastéis de Belém bakery. (Custard tarts not included)

This is Lisbon’s past, present, and pastry—served in one unforgettable 4-hour ride.
