What will you find on this free tour?

On this tour we explore that relationship by walking along the Ribeira del Tagus, visiting emblematic places such as Praça do Comercio, the Arsenal, the pink street or the Mercado da Ribeira. Sailors, merchants, prostitutes and spies will fill the tour with stories, legends and curiosities.

Our steps will take us to the Cais do Sodré station, where we will take the train that will take us to Belém, the epicenter of power in Portugal's most glorious era, and home to its best-known monuments, such as the Belém Tower, the Monument to the Discoverers and the Jerónimos Monastery. Through them we will learn about the birth of the first global maritime empire, the exciting adventures of discoverers such as Vasco de Gama and Afonso de Albuquerque, and the splendid avalanche of wealth that arrived with them in Lisbon, causing the appearance of their own artistic style, the Manuelino.

In addition to all this, there will also be room for the glories of the present. And it is that Belém is the proud birthplace of one of the most famous delicacies in all of Portugal, the pastelitos de nata or pastels de Belém. Trying them has become a real pilgrimage, and thousands of people visit the famous pastry shop every day. Accompanied by our guides, you will be able to try this marvel of gastronomy without waiting for hours queuing for miles.

Come with us to Belém and be amazed by the splendor of Portugal's golden age.
