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 just away from the busy city center, Campo dos Mártires da Pátria is a peaceful, green square offering a quieter side of Lisbon. With its shaded paths, leafy garden, and relaxed atmosphere, it is a favorite spot for locals. Rich in history, the square pays tribute to the “martyrs of the fatherland” and provides an authentic break from the usual tourist routes.
Located in the heart of the Alfama district, the Miradouro das Portas do Sol offers one of Lisbon’s most iconic views. From this viewpoint, you can admire terraced rooftops, historic churches, and the shimmering Tagus River below. Known for its bright setting and lively atmosphere, it is a must-see spot to take in the full beauty of the city.
Located along the Tagus River, Praça do Comércio is one of Lisbon’s most iconic squares. Once home to the royal palace before the 1755 earthquake, it stands out for its grand scale, symmetrical yellow buildings, and elegant arcades. Opening onto the river, it offers a stunning panorama and serves as a spectacular gateway to the city, especially through the famous Rua Augusta Arch.
Located along the Tagus River, Cais do Sodré is one of Lisbon’s most vibrant and evolving districts. Once a historic port area, it now blends maritime heritage with a lively urban scene. Known for the famous Pink Street, its restaurants, bars, and the Time Out Market, it’s a must-visit spot to experience Lisbon’s modern and energetic vibe.
Located in the lively Cais do Sodré district, Time Out Market Lisboa is one of the city’s most iconic food destinations. Set inside the historic Mercado da Ribeira, it brings together a curated selection of top chefs, restaurants, and Portuguese specialties under one roof. With its vibrant atmosphere and high-quality cuisine, it’s a must-visit spot to experience Lisbon’s culinary scene.
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.
Located in the Belém district, Pastéis de Belém is a must-visit spot to taste one of Portugal’s most iconic specialties. Founded in 1837, this historic pastry shop is the only place where the original “pastéis de Belém” are made, following a secret recipe passed down through generations. With its traditional atmosphere, it’s the perfect place to enjoy these famous custard tarts, served warm and delicately crispy.
Located along the Tagus River, Belém Tower is one of Lisbon’s most iconic landmarks and a powerful symbol of the Age of Discoveries. Built in the 16th century, this Manueline-style fortress once guarded the entrance to the city’s harbor. With its intricate carvings, balconies, and turrets, it offers a unique setting, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site and a must-see when visiting Lisbon.
Located in the Belém district, Jerónimos Monastery is one of the finest examples of Manueline architecture in Portugal. Built in the 16th century to celebrate the Age of Discoveries, it stands out for its intricate carvings and magnificent cloisters. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, it is also home to the tombs of Vasco da Gama and the poet Luís de Camões. A must-see landmark to experience Portugal’s rich maritime history.
A true green lung of Lisbon, Monsanto Forest Park is the city’s largest natural area. Set on the hills, it features expansive woodland, shaded trails, and numerous viewpoints overlooking Lisbon and the Tagus River. Known for its peaceful atmosphere and preserved nature, it’s the perfect place to escape the urban buzz and enjoy a refreshing break close to the city.
Located in the Estrela district, Estrela Basilica is one of Lisbon’s finest examples of Baroque and Neoclassical architecture. Built in the 18th century, it stands out with its impressive white dome, visible from afar, and its elegant twin towers. Inside, marble and refined decorations create a majestic atmosphere, while the rooftop terrace offers panoramic views over the city.
Connecting the Bica district to Bairro Alto, the Bica Funicular is one of Lisbon’s most iconic forms of transport. Operating since 1892, this small yellow tram runs down a narrow street lined with colorful buildings and traditional balconies. With its picturesque setting, it perfectly captures the authentic charm of the city and is one of Lisbon’s most photographed spots.
Located at the crossroads of Chiado and Bairro Alto, Praça Luís de Camões is one of Lisbon’s iconic squares. Dominated by the statue of the renowned Portuguese poet Luís de Camões, it serves as a lively meeting point blending culture, history, and local life. Surrounded by cafés, bookstores, and elegant buildings, it stands at the heart of Lisbon’s vibrant atmosphere.

Exploring Lisbon by sidecar was an absolute blast. Stéphane, our driver was fantastic, navigating the charming streets and hills with ease, giving us unique perspectives and photo ops you just can't get otherwise. It's a truly unforgettable way to see the city! This sidecar tour is an absolute must-do! This Lisbon sidecar tour is an immersive experience that brings the city to life in a way walking tours simply can't. We covered so much ground comfortably, saw incredible sights. A truly special and memorable way to explore Lisbon and a very nice Birthday surprise for me! Chris

We loved everything about our tour, the history, the views, the guide and of course the motorcycle and side car !!! It's super comfortable ! There's nothing scary, Stephane seems to know every turn, and he drives super smoothly. Crossing the "Ponte 25 de Abril" felt incredible, seeing Cristo Rei like that... Amazing. Visiting the city center with its historic streets and listening to Stephane' stories was so interesting and chill. We stopped a few times for pictures and also for food (He got us to LX factory and waited for us while we had a little walk and a snack). We saw the best of Lisbon in such a practical and unique way. Thank you so much ! Best souvenir.

Just tell you how exceptional it is!! You have so many emotions, a guide in your own right that for you! He lives there, he knows and explains to you the whole history of old and new Lisbon. The history of the tsunami, the reconstruction, the crossing of Lisbon in the 2nd World War; shows you its monuments, their histories, takes you into 1 century of history and even more over the monuments, explains the culture of the Lisboners and their daily life today, politics, the economy, their know-how and their way of life. Already it is exceptional and immersive, but in addition, the Emotions, the effervescences of the city, of all its historic districts and the most beautiful, and most popular. Guides you for free on what to go visit away from the Tuk Tuk tourists and tour operators, to know and live the real Lisbon. Stéphane was our side car motar; an emotion to live with him! A passion for his city and the Portuguese to him, which he will offer you with a smile and all attention (drinks, personal protections of helmet, and others). You go from emotions to emotions!!! Do not miss this unforgettable sidecar tour with such cultivated, passionate, smiling accompaniment, and at your own expense! The rate is really EXTRA!!! Carole and Denis on Wednesday, September 10, 2025 (original Breton)😃 Thousand Thanks to Retro tour for this experience and especially to Stéphane!!!

We wanted to discover the city differently and were served. more casual and personal than tuktuk or group tour.The sidecar is comfortable and allowed us to see a lot during our tour (1h30). My girlfriend and I enjoyed the historical explanations and the offbeat side car. traveling with a couple of friends we were each able to enjoy a vehicle.we will recommend it to our friends for a future visit to Lisbon
