Hop on an electric tuk-tuk and explore the heart of Lisbon in comfort and style. In just 4 hours, you’ll glide through the city’s iconic neighborhoods — Alfama, Graça, Mouraria, Baixa, Chiado, Bairro Alto, and Belém — including charming narrow streets that big tour buses can’t reach.

Along the way, you’ll stop at Lisbon’s most breathtaking viewpoints, like Miradouro da Graça, Miradouro da Nossa Senhora do Monte, São Pedro de Alcântara, and Largo das Portas do Sol, where panoramic views over the red rooftops and the Tagus River will leave you speechless.

Your journey is guided by a local expert who will share fascinating stories, curiosities, and historical insights about the city. To make your experience even sweeter, enjoy a local treat, if you wish, a delicious Pastel de Belém!

Does this tour include free pickup and drop-off at my hotel/Airbnb?

Yes! We offer complimentary pickup and drop-off at any hotel in Lisbon’s city center. During the reservation process, simply select your hotel from the list. If your hotel or Airbnb isn’t listed, please contact us, and we’ll confirm whether pickup is available at your location. Please note that some streets in Lisbon are pedestrian-only. If your accommodation is on one of these streets, we will provide the nearest accessible pickup point, usually within a 5-minute walk. Alternatively, you can select Hard Rock Cafe as your pickup location, as it is a centrally located and convenient meeting point.

Does the tour require a lot of walking?

No, not at all! You will be comfortably seated in a tuk-tuk throughout the tour. The vehicle will stop at key viewpoints and landmarks, allowing you to explore, take photos, and enjoy the sights without excessive walking. Tuk-tuks are an excellent way to experience the city with minimal effort.

What is the difference between an electric tuk-tuk and a regular one?

All our tuk-tuks are electric. Electric tuk-tuks are completely silent, making for a more peaceful and enjoyable ride. They are also eco-friendly, as they produce zero emissions and help keep Lisbon’s air clean. Unlike traditional tuk-tuks, which use fuel, electric ones do not contribute to noise or air pollution.

Is this a private or shared tour?

All of our tuk-tuk tours are private. This means your group will have the vehicle and guide all to yourselves - no sharing with other people.

How many people does a tuk-tuk fit?

Each tuk-tuk can accommodate up to 6 people. If your group is larger than 6, you will need two tuk-tuks. However, both vehicles will travel together, making stops at the same locations so your group can still experience the tour together.

Is this a guided tour?

Yes! Your expert guide will accompany you throughout the tour, providing insightful commentary at each stop. Unlike other services that simply drop you off at locations, our guide stays with you, sharing fascinating stories and historical details about Lisbon’s most iconic sites.

What’s the cancellation policy?

You can receive a full refund if you cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled tour start time. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate cancellations or modifications within 24 hours of departure.

What happens if it rains? Will the tour still happen?

Yes! Our tours operate rain or shine. All tuk-tuks are equipped with transparent rain covers, ensuring you can still enjoy Lisbon’s beautiful scenery even on rainy days.

Belem Palace

In 1912, after the proclamation of the republic, the Palácio de Belém was designated the official residence of the President of the Republic. In the 18th century, D. João V bought it from the Count of Aveiras, having radically altered it. At the time of the 1755 earthquake, the monarch D. José I and his family were spending the holiday in the Belém area and survived the devastation. Fearing another earthquake, the royal family settled in tents on the grounds of the palace, whose interior was used as a hospital. D. Maria II inhabited the Palace of Belém for a few years (when the Palácio das Necessidades was under construction) From the reign of D. Luís I, the Palace of Belém was destined to receive the official guests that visited Lisbon. In 1886, a new mission was given to the Palace of Belém, the official residence of the Royal Princes D. Carlos, Duke of Bragança and his young wife D. Amélia de Orleães

In 2005, a real estate company decided to buy and revitalize the place that was reborn in 2008 as a “factory” of creativity and experiences. It kept the industrial spaces and invited companies in the arts sector, which later brought shops, cafes and restaurants.

Belem Tower

Visit to the outside of the Belém Tower.

The Tower of São Vicente (1514) belongs to a defense formation of the Tagus basin ordered by João II of Portugal, composed to the south by the tower of São Sebastião da Caparica (1481) and to the west by the Tower of Santo António de Cascais ( 1488)

Its installations extend over almost 400 meters, for a width of only about 50 meters, paralleling the Tagus River. These characteristic dimensions were due to the needs of the production process. Its location, on the river, sought to facilitate the supply of products to ship owners.
