Starting in Praça do Comércio, near Cais das Colunas, you’ll ride your Sitway heading to the Old Town.

This ancient Arab district, Alfama (derives from the Arabic word Al-Hama that means “source of good water”), was one of the few areas of Lisbon which wasn’t destroyed by the big 1775 earthquake and its very distinct from other neighbourhoods due to its maze of narrow streets, small archways, terraces and the castle on top of the hill.

Besides the castle, there are several historic 17th-century churches in the vicinity, as well as the city’s impressive cathedral.

The neighbourhood is also home to traditional fado houses, where this unique Portuguese musical expression can be appreciated in rustic and romantic surroundings, Lisbon’s biggest flea market and even some of the best views of Lisbon are from squares such as the Largo das Portas do Sol – once the entrance gates to the old city.

We came across these sit down Segway things called a Sitway. Best fun of our weekend break to Lisbon. We did the old town tour. We got see the old district and streets we would not have found, with restaurants and bars. Also we got to hear about the history. Great thing is you sit all the way…. you don’t have to stand
Excellent guides Giu and Pedro. Highly recommend it!

Tinhamos poucos dias em Lisboa e queríamos aproveitar ao máximo tudo. Fizemos um passeio guiado e muito divertido pela cidade de aproximadamente uma hora e meia e nos sentimos moradores locais. O guia nos deu boas explicações e nos levou à lugares ótimos! A equipe também foi muito atenciosa ao passar as orientações de segurança. Valeu muito a pena!

I go try Sitway when in Lisbon with my wife. I do Old Town tour and we liked very much! Is so fun! Our guide was very informative, he tell us historical facts that we never know about and he show streets of Lisbon in a very fun way. We even stop to drink cherry liquor, where else?? It is very easy to learn drive Sitway, becomes almost an instinct after first couple minutes. Try this guys, you won’t regret it. I know we did not and will come back soon with big group because very fun.

Super leuke tour gemaakt samen met mijn zoon van 12. Onze gids was ontzettend aardig, sprak goed Engels en vertelde boeiend. Ook mijn zoon kon alles goed volgen. Leuke route door Alfama. Echt een aanrader!
