Alfama holds a charm that is hard to resist. Its winding streets, narrow alleys and small squares have a village-like character that invites you to slow down and notice the details. Often described as the part of Lisbon that survived the 1755 earthquake, Alfama’s story is more complex. While it escaped the structured reconstruction that transformed much of central Lisbon, its surviving urban fabric preserves echoes of the city’s long history. On this tour, you’ll explore Alfama’s famous viewpoints and lively squares, but also venture off the beaten path into quieter streets and hidden corners. Along the way, we’ll discover some of Lisbon’s most important monuments and artistic treasures, seen through an art historian’s eye for the details that can easily go unnoticed. This is a tour for those looking to go beyond Alfama’s postcard views and gain a deeper understanding of the neighbourhood, its history and what it is like to live there today.
Casa dos Bicos is one of Lisbon’s most distinctive historic buildings, famous for its diamond-shaped façade. Beneath it, archaeological remains reveal layers of the city’s Roman past.

Immerse yourself in Alfama’s winding streets as we make our way to São Vicente Monastery, with Lisbon’s famous trams along the way. Commissioned by Portugal’s first king, Afonso Henriques, the monastery is deeply connected to important chapters of Lisbon and Portuguese history. Near by on Tuesdays and Saturdays, Feira da Ladra, Lisbon’s famous flea market, fills the streets around the National Pantheon with antiques, vintage finds, curiosities, and the occasional unexpected treasure. We will have a chance to explore that as well. On the other days, the area is calm and peaceful, with its central garden providing the perfect place for a relaxed stop to enjoy the views and atmosphere.
