About this activity

Equipped with an automatic gearbox and a GPS audio guide, the Twizy car is very easy to drive. You will move through the streets completely silent, while the audio guide provides a fascinating context to the sites you will see en route. You also have plenty of time to stop, take pictures and enjoy the atmosphere, which will make this trip an absolutely unforgettable experience!
Start your tour exploring the old town of Lisbon with its many historic monuments and beautiful viewpoints. Marvel at the ornate façade of the Cathedral, then head to the city's ancient castle. Enjoy the stunning view from the Portas do Sol (Gates of the Sun) in the Alfama district and continue to the Miradouro da Graça for more panoramic views. Then pass the monastery of São Vicente de Fora and the 17th-century National Pantheon. Cruise the historic streets of Alfama, Lisbon’s oldest neighborhood, and discover the site of the Museu do Fado, dedicated to Portugal’s folk music traditions. Go to the Santa Apolónia railway station, the oldest train terminus in Lisbon, and then head into the elegant Lisbon Baixa and find tree-lined boulevards full of cafés and shops.
Now continue to Martim Moniz, the most multicultural area in town. Pass the beautiful Rossio square, have a look at the iconic funicular Elevador da Gloría, and see the iron Santa Justa lift, which allows for a panoramic view above the city. Enter the Chiado district and visit the Gothic ruins of the Convento do Carmo. Continue to Praça Luís de Camões and Bairro Alto, the famous nightlife district of Lisbon, which also hosts one of the most beautiful viewpoints of the city: the Miradouro São Pedro de Alcântara.
After the gardens of Príncipe Real you drive by the Portuguese Parliament and on to the spectacular Praça do Comercio with its wide open space alongside the river. Enjoy the view and head back to the shop when you are ready!

We love this little car, easy to drive and can go on all the narrow winding roads with ease. There is a pre recorded GPS in English that takes you on the 2 hour tour. We went uphill, downhill and can park anywhere for free! The pickup point is a little tricky to find...we just ask around the shops. Now my husband is 5'10 and I'm 5'5 and we are comfy in there. Would not recommend anyone taller than me for the back seat passenger. The people at the agency are not too strict on the 2 hours limit due to traffic conditions and there is no need to buy insurance from the rental place for such short duration. All the cars around are very much aware of you!

The owners of the business were really friendly, the great thing about this is parking is included, we managed to stop by and have lunch on our trip which was great! Overall super easy to drive, great tour and was really relaxing as Lisbon streets are not too busy compared to other cities.

I highly recommend this for anyone visiting Lisbon. I suggest booking it at the beginning of your trip so can get a good idea of the layout of the city and where you may want to revisit later. The GPS was very clear and easy to follow and the car had enough power to get up the hills, but small enough to easily get around in traffic. The drivers in Lisbon aren't terribly aggressive so I felt quite comfortable driving around.

This car was incredibly cute and zippy. It really allowed us access to parts of the city I don't think we would have otherwise accessed. Other drivers were very respectful of us so no close calls...... I most especially want to give 10 stars to the owners/managers of the office. They were incredibly kind, enthusiastic, and helpful. GREAT GREAT Experience. FUN, Fun, fun.....
