Lisbon Excursion Recommendations
E-bike "Up The Hills" Tour of Lisbon
- Enjoy the electric bike up and down the hills of Lisbon
- Visiting the most traditional and historic neighborhoods of Alfama, Mouraria and Bairro Alto
Those who know Lisbon's geography may think this tour is something of a Mission Impossible. Well, there are good news and bad news.
Let's start with the bad news: Lisbon has 7 hills so this is not going to be “just another bike tour” because the challenge level has gone up at this point. Anyway, we can guarantee that this is going to be a memorable trip, for the best possible reasons.
The good news: our bikes are electric, surprisingly easy to ride and eco-friendly! They even help you go up. Furthermore in 2h30, it’s impossible to visit the 7 hills, usually the time available allows to visit between 2 to 3 belvederes, depending of course on the characteristics of the group.
One common tip to discover a city for real is to get lost in it! Our rule to discover the best of Lisbon is by following our adorable guides! They are specialized in Portuguese history, some cheeky curiosities and hidden spots! They look crazy but they’re only crazy about Lisbon.
