About this activity
This is a tour where you can enjoy the oldest districts of Lisbon by Sitway and Tuk Tuk.

You will begin this tour in Praça do Comércio, near Cais das Colunas, starting this way your Sitway (sit-segway) tour to the Old Town.

Spread over the southeastern slope of the hill crowned by Castelo de São Jorge, the picturesque neighbourhood is composed by a maze of narrow streets, winding alleyways, and steep flights of steps. 

Its Kasbah-like layout is deliberate - this is the city's ancient Arab district. Alfama derives from the Arabic word Al-Hama that means "source of warm, good water". The tightly-packed lanes, small archways, and stone-paved terraces are full of atmosphere and a great fun to explore. Alfama was one of the few areas of Lisbon which wasn't destroyed by the big 1775 earthquake. Lisbon's old quarter offers many things to see.

Besides the castle, there are several historic 17th-century churches in the vicinity, as well as the city's impressive cathedral. 

A clutch of excellent museums provide cultural diversion, and Lisbon's biggest flea market is here. Some of the best views in Lisbon are from lofty squares such as the Miradouro Largo das Portas do Sol - once the entrance gates to the old city. 

Alfama wakes up at night, when some of the city's most authentic cafés and restaurants open their doors to serve delicious traditional cuisine and plenty of bonhomie. 

The neighbourhood is also home to traditional fado houses, where this unique Portuguese musical expression can be appreciated in rustic and romantic surroundings.

After this Sitway Tour you will start the Tuk Tuk tour, where you will arise until Graça. Once there you will visit the viewpoints of the neighbourhood (Miradouro Nossa senhora do Monte and Miradouro Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen), from where you can enjoy the panoramic view over Lisbon and the river.

 Lisbon is known by the city of the seven hills, so from each sightseeing place you can see a large part of the city.
