4.Early Morning TukTuk Tour – hotel/cruise ship pickup

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 45 reviews · 2 hours · from $76

Start early with a private cyan blue electric tuk-tuk and a local guide such as Francisco, José Pedroso, Pedro, or Beni. In two hours, you’ll see Alfama, Graça, Mouraria, Baixa, Chiado, Bairro Alto, and Lisbon’s best miradouros before the streets fill up.

“Jose Pedroso was an incredible guide! From history to Fado to literature, we covered a lot during our two hour tour. This tour guide and jazz musician has extensive knowledge about Lisbon and brings heart and levity to his story-telling. The in-depth tour was time well spent and included stunning panoramic views of the city. One of our most moving experiences was learning about the 1974 Carnation Revolution in the very park in which military forces were confronted during the revolution, leading to the regime’s collapse. Thanks, Jose, for a truly memorable, well-paced, and moving experience!”
