Lisboa Sightseeing Tour
Depart by coach in direction of Belém, the monumental part of Lisboa, where the UNESCO world heritage sites of the Belém Tower and the Jerónimos Monastery are to be found. Monuments reminding of the era of the overseas voyages and discoveries of new worlds… we will make a brief visit to the area before continuing to the heart of Lisboa. On route we will see the beautiful Basílica of Estrela before arriving at one of the best viewpoints over the city situated at the top of the Eduardo VII's Park. We will drive down the Avenida da Liberdade to the Rossio Square and stop for a walk along the main pedestrian street - Rua Augusta and its Triumphal Arch opening up to the Terreiro do Paco by the river. The royal palace that stood in this magnificent square was never rebuilt after the earthquake that struck Lisboa in 1755.
