Description

See Lisbon’s architecture change with the light.


Explore Lisbon as afternoon turns into evening, discovering the details, stories and secrets hidden in its historic streets. Along the way, small challenges invite you to look closer — from intricate façades and iconic ironwork to buildings shaped by earthquakes, revolutions and centuries of change.

Pass Lisbon’s most photographed iron elevator, the ruins of a convent, the world’s oldest operating bookshop and a legendary café once frequented by Portugal’s most famous poet. Enjoy a traditional pastel de nata (included in the price), with the option to try a shot of Lisbon’s famous ginja (not included in the price).

The tour ends at Miradouro de Santa Catarina, just as golden hour gives way to night — offering the perfect view of Lisbon’s architecture, rooftops and streets as the neighbourhood comes alive.


Discover the city by day. Experience it by night.


*Payment has to be upfront (20 euros) before the tour starts.
