Overview
When evening falls and Lisbon is dressed in shadows, it hides tales of intrigue, legends, and unusual facts. We will start at the Commerce Square. We will start exploring the Baixa and continue through the Alfama. It is said that the Order of the Temple hid symbols and secrets that still today generate theories and speculations. Did you know that some historians have linked Portugal with the possible location of the legendary Atlantis? We will pass by the Cathedral and learn about the history of Portugal's bloodiest assassins. From the viewpoints of Santa Luzia and Portas do Sol, we will enjoy breathtaking views and hear one of the most beautiful legends of the city: the enchanted Moura.
Did you know that St. Vincent was the first patron saint of Lisbon and that the monastery was built in his honor?
We will learn about conspiracies, betrayals, and executions that left their mark on Lisbon's history. Among stories of crimes and secret societies, we will discover that Lisbon is much more than it seems at first glance.
We will end our tour at Portas do Sol, having unveiled some of the best-kept secrets of the city.
An experience you won't forget!
