Augustus gave the name to the existing settlement on the occasion of its ennoblement between 31 and 27BC. With the conquest of Hispania, peace is decreed in the empire, promoting the establishment of intense commercial relationships with several roman provinces. The wealth of Olisipo, mainly piscicultural, and its privileged geographical position transformed the city in the maritime capital of Lusitania. Abandoned in the fourth century, it was only discovered 1798, after the 1755 earthquake, while Lisbon was being rebuild.

Maia, was an excellent guide. She was easy going and enthusiastic, but most importantly she was knowledgeable and very personable. She knew where to take us and how to get us there. Everything was organized. avoided lines and she gave us the inside story. Our group really enjoyed our tour and at the end of the day we all knew more about Lisbon and felt like we made a friend. Please wear comfortable shoes. I jokingly say that it is all uphill, but it was.

Wir haben zu viert eine private Stadtführung mitgemacht. Unser Guide João Dickmann lebt in Lissabon, spricht aber hervorragend und akzentfrei Deutsch. Er kennt seine Stadt und ihre Geschichte, die einen hinter jeder Ecke anspringt, sehr genau. Er blieb uns keine Antwort schuldig und zeigte uns Vieles, woran wir sonst achtlos vorbeigelaufen wären. João ging bereitwillig auf unsere Wünsche ein und die fünf Stunden vergingen viel zu schnell.
