Self-Guided Walking Tours to Explore Lisbon, Portugal

Welcome to the oldest city in Western Europe where many people's love of Portugal begins. Our Introduction Walk will take first-time visitors to some of the city's most essential sights. Don't miss a trip to the Alfama district – the definition of character and charm, with shops and restaurants hidden on every street, as well as spectacular views of the Tagus River. For most, it can only be matched in beauty by Belem, which features outstanding parks, tree-lined plazas, and green open spaces all along the Tejo Estuary.

In all, we have prepared 7 self-guided walks for you to explore Lisbon, which cover everything from charming neighborhoods to the most notable historic and cultural landmarks. Not only that, but you can also create your own walk with the attractions that interest you most and even set your hotel as the walk's starting point!

How it works: Download the app "GPSmyCity: Walks in 1K+ Cities" from Apple App Store or Google Play Store to your mobile phone or tablet. Each walk comes with a detailed tour map as well as photos and background information for the featured attractions. The app's navigation functions guide you from one attraction to the next. The app works offline, so no data plan is needed when traveling abroad.
