Lisbon is one of the oldest cities in Europe and there are layers and layers of history so the day stats early with a unique ride on the famous Lisbon tram 28, taking in you to the Castle district area and the famous Alfama district while heading down to the city centre. Once at downtown you are going to Miradouro da Rua Augusta to enjoy the panoramic view, and next to the Lisbon Story Centre were you can walk trough the history of Lisbon. After the shaky experience, free time to lunch and get back on the tram 15 heading to the Belém district to see the Torre de Belém sitting at the Tagus riverside, and the imposing Jerónimos Monastery, both elevated to World Heritage by UNESCO that have dominated this landscape for 500 years.

Facing the Tagus (Tejo) to the South, the city square is still commonly known in Portuguese as Terreiro do Paço as it hosted the Paço da Ribeira until it was destroyed by the great 1755 Lisbon earthquake. After the earthquake, the square was completely remodeled as part of the rebuilding of the Pombaline Downtown (Baixa), ordered by Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo, 1st Marquis of Pombal, who was (chief) Minister of Portugal from 1750 to 1777, during the reign of the Portuguese King José I. From the 19th century onwards, Praça do Comércio became the seat of some of the most important Portuguese state departaments.

Ricky was a perfect tour guide and had so much inside knowledge of the sights. Ricky brought history to life with his knowledge and stories. In addition, he knew all the best local recommendations for food and our group had such a good time we all met up again later. We have traveled a lot and are history buffs, and Ricky earns my highest recommendation as a tour guide!

Carlos, with his knowledge & wit, provided all we needed for a perfect tour of the incredible sights in Belem. Truly enjoyed the area, we had planned to view for months! Sharing experiences with others in the group made the tour even better. Lots of laughter & history shared.

We had a great day with our guide seeing the sites of Lisbon and learning the history. I would highly recommend this tour especially if you have only a short time and would like to see the beauty of Lisbon. We spoke English and we were joined by an Italian couple who spoke Italian. Our guide took time with each of the couples speaking in English and Italian to communicate the information. Andre was kind and engaging. We learned a lot about life in Lisbon.
