Lisbon Walking Tour: Historic Strolls of the Old Town
Overview
Step back in time and discover the charm, stories, and secrets of Lisbon’s oldest neighborhoods on foot.
Alfama is not only one of the oldest and most picturesque districts in Lisbon, but also was one of the only neighbourhoods, which was not destroyed in the 1755 earthquake. And so, the city still has kept its quaint familial charm. In fact, the moniker of this neighbourhood comes from the Arabic ‘Al-hamma’ meaning ‘hot fountains’ or ‘baths’.
It is one of the oldest neighborhoods in the city, known for its narrow streets, traditional architecture, and vibrant multicultural community.
It was once home to Lisbon's Moorish population during the Middle Ages. Over time, the neighborhood became a melting pot of cultures, with people from all over the world settling there.
The duration of the tour is 2:30 hours.
