    Lisbon’s Seven Hills: Trams, Tiles, and Fado Nights

    Lisbon rewards those willing to climb. Between its seven hills you’ll find pastel facades, hand-painted azulejo tiles, and the melancholic sound of fado drifting from open windows. Our guide knows every shortcut — and every viewpoint.

    Highlights

    • Belém Tower and the Jerónimos Monastery
    • A wander through the historic Alfama district
    • A ride on the iconic Tram 28
    • An evening of live fado with dinner
    • Optional day trip to the fairy-tale palaces of Sintra

    Sun-drenched and unpretentious, Lisbon is one of Europe’s most rewarding cities to explore slowly — exactly how we like to show it.
