Have you explored Alfama on a walking tour? If not, you’re missing out!

Alfama is one of Lisbon’s oldest and most picturesque districts. Remarkably, it survived the 1755 earthquake, preserving its quaint, familial charm.

Stroll through Alfama’s steep, winding alleys, adorned with beautiful ‘azulejos,’ and take in breathtaking views of terracotta roofs and the Tagus River. Experience the aromas of traditional Portuguese cuisine, the echoes of Fado tunes, and the chatter of elderly locals. Alfama is one of the most authentic neighborhoods in Lisbon!
