A few ways to spend the day

Take the long way to the river.

01

Alfama · An easy morning

A hill, a view, a coffee

Wander Alfama’s lanes, then take a breather at the Santa Luzia viewpoint.

See the plan +

Meet outside Lisbon Cathedral and start with a coffee nearby.
Walk uphill through Alfama at a pace that leaves room to talk.
Stop at Miradouro de Santa Luzia for a view over the rooftops and Tagus.

Wear shoes you’re happy walking in. This is a hilly walk, with steps and uneven paving.

02

Belém · A few hours

Keep the afternoon open

Make a riverside walk the plan. Add a pastry stop or a museum if you feel like it.

See the plan +

Choose a meeting point around Praça do Império.
Head towards the waterfront and follow the river together.
Pick one extra stop: a pastry, a garden, or a museum you both want to see.

Decide on any museum visit ahead of time and check its own booking information.

Alfama · An evening

Listen to the neighbourhood

Share dinner, then make time to listen to fado in the neighbourhood it calls home.

See the plan +

Choose a fado venue together and check its programme.
Book a table if required, and agree on a meeting point nearby.
Catch up over dinner, then give the performers your attention.

Check cover charges and meal requirements with the venue before booking.
