On a smaller bus, we head into Lisbon downtown and follow Lisbon trams on narrow streets seeing Mouraria and Alfama. We cross Baixa and head into Chiado and Bairro Alto. Rato and Estrela are in our route as we head into the lovely area of Belém, protected by Unesco and where you can see the Belém Tower and stop for a few minutes near the Monastery of Jeronimos.
But what really surprises our guests about our tour is the fact that we have a caravel shaped bus with tablets on every seat and we show Lisbon history in small videos as we move along the city.
