This tour allows you to discover Lisbon, capital of Portugal, colonized by many civilizations along the centuries: Phoenicians, Greeks, Carthaginians, Romans, Moors and finally the Portuguese after 1147. In the main hill of Lisbon, you will find the St. George Castle with its surrounding quarter and Alfama, Lisbon's oldest quarter. This city is linked with the heroic deeds of the Portuguese maritime exploration, in the 15th and 16th centuries. This was the Age of Discoveries and the Golden Era of Portugal, transforming Lisbon into the opulent center of a vast empire. Part of the wealth from these expeditions was used to build magnificent monuments in a unique Portuguese style: the extravagant Manueline architectural style, best typified in the monuments located in the area of Belém.

  • Castelo de S. Jorge, Lisbon, Portugal
    The Castle of St. George is located in the parish of Santa Maria Maior (Castelo). The Castle of St. George, dating from the X-XI centuries, was conquered to the Moors by D. Afonso Henriques in 1147. The present name derives from the devotion of the castle to Saint George, patron saint of the knights and of the crusades, and was given by order of D. John I in the 14th century. Over time the castle, as well as the various military structures of Lisbon, was remodeled, and by the first half of the 20th century it was already in an advanced state of decay. In the 1940s monumental works of reconstruction were undertaken, rising a great part of the walls and raising many of the towers. For this reason, contrary to what one might think at first glance, the "medieval character" of this military complex is due to this reconstruction campaign, not to the preservation of the castle from the Middle Ages to the present day. It stands in a dominant position on the highest hill of the historic center, giving visitors one of the most beautiful views of the city and of the Tagus estuary.

  • Mosteiro dos Jeronimos, Lisbon, Portugal
    In 1501 the new King of Portugal Manuel I ordered the construction of a new pantheon on the waterfront honoring the arrival of Vasco da Gama to India in 1498, using a style of architecture that cannot be found elsewhere in the world: the Manueline, best typified in Jerónimos Monastery. The combination of religious motives, nautical symbols, and tombs of historical characters such as Vasco da Gama or Fernando Pessoa transformed the Monastery into one of the most astonishing pieces of architecture in Europe. You will be able to visit the church and the cloisters, considered by many the most beautiful in the world, you will travel back in time to when the Hieronymite monks lived here and the silence was the motto.
    60 minutes
  • Alfama, Lisbon, Portugal
    The name itself comes from the Arabic “Al-hamma”, which means fountains or baths. "Originally, Alfama was situated outside of the city walls and was associated with poverty and squalor, where only the poor and disadvantaged resided. As Lisbon grew into an important port, the district retained its lowly status as the tough and deprived district where sailors and dock workers lived. Today, Alfama has shrugged off its grim reputation, being transformed into a fashionable artisan district, while still retaining its character and dilapidated charm."

We were a family of 6 adults on a driving trip around Portugal. Our last 2 evenings and days were spent in Lisbon. We arranged a private tour of Lisbon with Viator thru Gold Compass. This was a truly great way to get around Lisbon and see the sights! Our driver was fantastic, picked us up at our hotel and went out of his way to making our tour memorable. We started at Christ the Redeemer statue which we had only seen from a distance, before the crowds started. He dropped us off at each sight and either parked or came back for us so we never had to do a lot of extra walking. He sharing information about each and every place. When there are 6 people ( $50 cdn each) a private tour is very reasonable! I would strongly recommend Gold Compass and Viator to all fellow travelers!

We were 4 first timers to Lisbon with only 1.5 days to explore before boarding our cruise ship. We arranged a tour on the afternoon of our arrival to see Lisbon's Traditions. Besides seeing and learning and taking in the experiences of this walking tour, it kept us moving after arrival on our overnight flight from the US. Our guide met us at our hotel and off we went! It was everything and more than I knew to expect. We covered everything I had seen in a Rick Steves video and read in his books on the sights to see. We could expore a bit on our own the following day since we learned the lay of the land. Very simple. We also arranged another 4 hour tour the next day in a van to cover areas not as close to Avenade du Liberdade such as Castelo de São Jorge. The tours gave us the taste of Lisbon we were hoping for and now we know we will return to Lisbon and Portugal because it was fabulous!! PS: we also had Tours for You arrange our ride from the airport to our hotel. Service was excellant. No complaints!

Today we enjoyed a half day private tour of Lisbon with our knowledgeable and friendly (English speaking) guide Matilda. It is fantastic how in 4 short hours you can discover further insight into the culture, heart and food of this beautiful city. We are so happy that we booked this tour as the more we walked we realised how much we would have missed. This overall tour included food tastings and to top it off at the end an informative talk in a wine shop where we were comfortably seated and treated to Portuegese wine regions/descriptions, wine and simple food pairings. Highly recommended.
