Lisbon BelÃm Shrine of Christ the King

With seven hills to explore, in a setting that changes from sunny squares along the river to narrow, picturesque streets, from old quarters to modern business areas, Lisbon is worth exploring on a guided tour, even if you later have some time to concentrate in some places. Depending on where you are staying, our tour can start right there and be tailored along the way.
