Private Alfama Walking Tour with an Art Historian
Alfama holds a charm that is hard to resist. Its winding streets, narrow alleys and small squares have a village-like character that invites you to slow down and notice the details. Often described as the part of Lisbon that survived the 1755 earthquake, Alfama’s story is more complex. While it escaped the structured reconstruction that transformed much of central Lisbon, its surviving urban fabric preserves echoes of the city’s long history. On this tour, you’ll explore Alfama’s famous viewpoints and lively squares, but also venture off the beaten path into quieter streets and hidden corners. Along the way, we’ll discover some of Lisbon’s most important monuments and artistic treasures, seen through an art historian’s eye for the details that can easily go unnoticed. This is a tour for those looking to go beyond Alfama’s postcard views and gain a deeper understanding of the neighbourhood, its history and what it is like to live there today.
