  • No, no, we will not make you climb the seven hills of Lisbon. Only downhill and flat, experience Lisbon by bike with local eyes, in a very personalized way.
  • We are passionate guides and will provide you with a unique and probably unforgettable time.

Detailed Description & Itinerary

  • The Lisbon Bike Tour is a very easy tour since it does not have any climb, always descending and flat. We will start at the top of Parque Eduardo VII, go through downtown of Lisbon and all the way to Belém along the Tagus River.
  • It will last about 3,5 hours. Half way through, we make a short stop in downtown where we offer you a special and typical drink and another stop in an old café where you try another specialty of Lisbon, this time a pastry.
  • This stop is also a chance for our guests to use the restroom or to have another drink (drinks at this café are not included). These 3,5 hours for about 12 kms mean a slow and panoramic pace.
  • We stop at the interesting spots of our city and tell you about what’s around. It is the best way to get to know Lisbon.
  • We will finish in Belém area, the other historical area of Lisbon apart from the downtown and related with our Discoverer’s period. In Belém, after we finish, you will be on your own.
  • Within a short walking distance at the end of the bike tour, there are public transportation options available (bus, tram and train) or taxi to return you to your needed area of Lisbon. Except for the taxi, all of the options require a metro card.
  • Our guide will explain you these options as well as suggest places for you to have a snack or a lunch and places for you to visit in the afternoon by foot. Belém has fine monuments, some of them Unesco World Heritage sites.
