Join us on this downhill walk past Fado taverns, markets and churches.
The name “Alfama” comes from the Arabic “Al-Hamma”, meaning springs or baths, due to the natural springs found in the area. During the Moorish period, Alfama was the center of Lisbon’s daily activities and over the centuries it became a slum for poor fishermen. You can steel feel the vibe of ancient Arabic markets through these narrow streets.
While you immerse yourself in Lisbon’s unique cobblestoned streets, our guide will provide context on the history, culture and daily life of Portugal.
Feel like a time traveler while you walk along Lisbon’s oldest quarter.

Family Trip to Portugal - Ricardo helped us preplan a wonderful itinerary. Jose Anthony, our driver, was knowledgeable, pleasant, accommodating and flexible. He introduced us to people and places during our 3 days spent with him, sharing with us the history and culture of Portugal. My adult son, daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the trip and would reach out to Ricardo and Jose Anthony in the future.
