What a fantastic experience! I enjoyed every minute of this sidecar tour. It was so much fun and honestly even better than I expected! My guide, Stephane, was wonderful! He took his time explaining the history, sharing interesting facts, and showing me some really cool places I probably wouldn’t have discovered on my own. I never felt rushed, and the whole experience was so enjoyable. I loved it so much that I’m actually considering booking a second tour with Stephane to explore a different area! I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Lisbon, especially solo travelers. It’s such a fun and unique way to explore the city. Definitely one of the highlights of my trip!

Itinerary
Located in the heart of Lisbon, the Carmo Archaeological Museum is set within the striking Gothic ruins of the former Carmo Church, partially destroyed in the 1755 earthquake. Open to the sky, this unique site blends dramatic architecture with history, housing a diverse archaeological collection ranging from prehistoric times to the Middle Ages. A fascinating place that reflects both Lisbon’s past and its resilience.
Located in one of Lisbon’s most picturesque neighborhoods, Rua da Bica is an iconic street best known for its famous funicular. Lined with colorful buildings, flowered balconies, and small cafés, it perfectly captures the city’s authentic charm. Its steep slope creates a unique view stretching down to the Tagus River, making it one of Lisbon’s most photographed spots.
Located near Estrela Basilica, Casa do Visconde de Sacavém is an elegant 19th-century residence steeped in history. Once an aristocratic home, it stands out for its refined architecture and tranquil atmosphere. Today, it hosts a restaurant and cultural spaces, offering a unique setting that blends heritage with Lisbon’s art of living.
Overlooking Lisbon from the southern bank of the Tagus River, the Christ the King statue is one of the region’s most striking landmarks. Inspired by Rio’s Christ the Redeemer, it rises over 100 meters high and offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city, the river, and the 25 de Abril Bridge. A peaceful and iconic site, it’s a must-visit viewpoint to experience Lisbon from a unique perspective.
Located in Almada, overlooking Lisbon, Casa da Cerca is a unique cultural site offering stunning views over the Tagus River and the city. Surrounded by peaceful gardens, this former residence now hosts a contemporary art center and a charming café. A coffee break is included here, giving you time to relax, enjoy the atmosphere, and take in the beautiful views over Lisbon.
An iconic symbol of Lisbon, the 25 de Abril Bridge connects the city to the southern bank of the Tagus River. Opened in 1966, it is often compared to San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge due to its suspension design and distinctive red color. Stretching over 2 kilometers, it offers spectacular views of the city, the river, and the surrounding hills, making it a key landmark in Lisbon’s skyline.

Amazing way to see Lisbon! We did the Cristo Rei sidecar tour in May as a couple and absolutely loved it! Crossing the 25 de Abril Bridge was an amazing experience, with incredible views over Lisbon. Fun, original and definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommended!
We did the Lisbon & Cristo Rei tour in July and it was such a memorable experience! Crossing the 25 de Abril Bridge in the sidecar, with the sunshine and wind, was absolutely fantastic. Amazing views from Cristo Rei and a really original way to discover Lisbon. One of the highlights of our trip!
Our guide Stephane was the best! Besides taking us to the beautiful known places of Lisbon he also showed us some magical secret places we did not even find online. Best experience!
Absolutely fantastic way to see Lisbon. Driving up and down the winding streets and seeing all the beautiful views of the harbour and bridges. Stephane and Gus were knowledgeable, and fun and really went out of the way to make sure we had a great time. Definitely made our Lisbon visit memorable! Thank you both so much!
It was a really original experience, I was only in Lisboa for 2 days and thanks to Stephane and Fred i was able to visit the whole of Lisboa and a few hours
Amazing experience! We went on the Lisbon to Cascais tour, tracing the entire seaside route. Perfect for those looking for a blend of culture and scenic beauty in one journey. The moto gentlemens are super cool and attentive. :)
We had a great time with our friendly driver! Discover the city in a side car, and immerse yourself in all its heritage and beauty! If you're still on the fence, now's the time to shake things up and experience the rhythm of Lisboa in a completely unique way! Thanks Fred and Stephan!
"Lisbon as a couple ❤️ Coming from the south of France, we discovered Lisbon by sidecar all the way to Cristo Rei. The ride across the 25th of April Bridge was great, with an incredible view of the city. A great experience for two that we won't soon forget!
The sidecar tour lasts about 1 hour and 30 minutes and allows you to see the main neighborhoods and points of interest in the city, with regular stops for explanations and visits. It is ideal for a first discovery of Lisbon, before returning later at your leisure to the places you preferred. The route is very flexible: you can ask all your questions, ask to adapt certain stops or neighborhoods according to your wishes, and even repeat the experience without necessarily following exactly the same itinerary. Another real plus: the guide picks you up directly at your hotel, even if it is a bit out of the way. Everything is very simple and fluid, you get on and off the sidecar easily to visit a church or discover a point of interest before leaving again. The hour and a half goes by incredibly fast! The price seemed completely justified to us considering the service, the flexibility, and the very personalized nature of the experience. To do without hesitation as a couple. And for families or groups of four, it is also possible to book two sidecars with two guides at the same time, which is very practical.
We were with friends and wanted to spend an unforgettable day, and that was the case!! Great experience to visit Lisbon in a different way. Plus, our guide only had good advice to give us; you can tell he knows the city like the back of his hand. I recommend everyone try the sidecar in Lisbon!!! Thanks again 🙏
This visit was really excellent, we went to Cristo Rei, the most incredible thing is when we crossed the 25 de Abril bridge and what is good is that Stephane always has water bottles with him. So this visit was really incredible. Thank you.
I wanted to give my daughter an original experience: discovering Lisbon by sidecar. And what a beautiful surprise! We loved this feeling of freedom and the possibility of exploring places that we probably would never have discovered on our own. Stéphane knows Lisbon like the back of his hand and took us to incredible spots, far from the usual circuits, with breathtaking views of the ocean. Throughout the route, he shares anecdotes, stories, and little secrets about the city that make the discovery even more lively and exciting. Between the landscapes, the unusual places, the sensations of the sidecar, and Stéphane's personality, we experienced a true moment of escape and mother-daughter bonding. I recommend this experience without hesitation to anyone who wishes to discover a different, authentic, and unexpected Lisbon, with a driver who will know how to transport you… literally and figuratively! A wonderful memory that we will keep for a long time. ❤️
Stephane was a fantastic guide! He paid a lot of care and attention to our needs and made us live in a dream! I would do this adventure again a thousand times! Thank you STEPH
Atypical experience with a very warm welcome from our Guide Fred who allowed us to discover Lisbon otherwise! Thank you very much for your thoughtfulness and availability!! Thank you for this special moment! AWESOME!!!
We spent an exceptional afternoon with the very friendly drivers Fred and Stéphane. They guided us to the most beautiful places in Lisbon with very informative comments. This activity is to be done and redone without hesitation
Great tour of Lisbon, with an ultra nice guide, to do!!! Unmissable!!! Typical neighborhoods, unmissable views, to be redone!!!!
Great teams, listening but I advise you to mesmerize their proposals because they are full of beautiful ideas. To be done again.
To do! Fred and Stephane will take you to discover the city is its surroundings under the Portuguese sun with good humor and security. Let them tell you the history of the city, historical anecdotes and places to eat and have fun. We went to Christ on the other side of the bridge and then to Caparica beach! To do and redo
Great experience, great team! An unforgettable memory thank you very much!! To do again without hesitation is exceptional!
Great team. We were able to discover the small streets of Lisbon. Very good start to get a nice idea of the city.
At the top, we had a great time. My daughter loved it. A beautiful discovery. A beautiful way to discover or rediscover Lisbon. Super welcome from Stéphane and Frédéric. To do again soon
Super Experience!!! A tour of Lisbon and its incredible and atypical surroundings, with extraordinary guides. Experience not to be missed if you are on Lisbon. I highly recommend!!
Original experience! Super nice guides. I highly recommend this visit which pleased both teenagers and parents.
A real pleasure! Original, with a top Pilot - Guide! A must do to keep an unforgettable memory of your stay in Lisbon. To consume without moderation ..
Really nice to discover Lisbon this way, very original, great pilot, I recommend, much better than the Tuc Tuc.
Really EXCELLENT, I absolutely recommend! To do as a couple, with family or friends, it's just GREAT. Nothing better to visit the city in a good mood and in super good company (Thank you Stéphane) who even takes the time to explain to you 4 days in Lisbon but this side car guided tour is what we preferred!!!
An activity that changes from classic guided tours. A super pleasant team, who also shared lots of advice with us for the rest of the stay. Really worth doing!
Discovering the city in a side car is a pleasant and original experience, Fred and Stephane were the perfect guides for this morning! We recommend
A superb experience! Discovering Lisbon differently, we loved it... very original and super pleasant. Stéphane was able to share his knowledge of the city, we learned lots of things... in short, a unique moment, I highly recommend.
Magnificent walk! It's the first time I've boarded a side car and the experience is really gripping. The team is super cool and the setting is idyllic. I recommend !
Fred and Stephane, our two gentlemen siders, put together a personalized guided tour for us which took us to discover Lisbon in a different way than the famous tram 28 or the touktouk. They adapted to our requirements and for that a big thank you. We really appreciated their kindness and joviality. A fantastic duo who like to share their Lisbon experience.
This is the 3rd time I've visited Lisbon, but it's the first time I've visited with the Lisbon retro-tour!! I can say that it’s a great walk, full of unique little places, and the pleasure of being taken for a walk in good hands. Thank you for the atmosphere and kindness 🤩
Super expérience, tout d'abord merci à Stéphane et Frédéric pour leur gentillesse et leur bienveillance. Pas de stress, on visite dans la bonne humeur avec la facilité offerte de pouvoir personnaliser la visite sur les points que l'on souhaite voir ou pour s'arrêter prendre une photo. Les sides sont confortables et bien équipés avec chargeur pour portable. Les motos et équipements sont neufs. La visite en side est très agréable avec un petit vent frais et la faculté de pouvoir échanger avec le guide en roulant. Le gros atout par rapport aux autres solutions de visite c'est la faculté de sortir de Lisbonne pour traverser l'estuaire sur le pont de la liberté et se rende en peu de temps au pied de la statue du Cristo Rei et/ou de visiter la tour de Belém. Bref, une superbe expérience à tenter. Ma compagne et moi-même avons beaucoup aimé.
