Meeting point

Praça do Comercio

On arrival

Our meeting point is in the most emblematic square in Lisbon, Praça do Comercio. To get to this point, if you come by public transport, you can take the Blue Line metro to Terreiro do Paço station and walk for a few minutes to the square. If by chance you are already in the center of Lisbon, you can walk to Rua Augusta, the main street, which is followed by Arco da Rua Augusta, and from there, it is easy to find the square.

Things to note

For this tour, it is important to wear suitable shoes and bring a bottle of water. In case of light rain, ponchos will be offered and in case of very heavy rain, the tour will be canceled for safety reasons.

Free Cancellation

Free Cancellation up to 24 hours before the activity starts. Late cancellation or your non-arrival is not refundable.
