Every detail of Manueline architecture impresses with its symbolic richness and the technical skill of the stone carvings. Walking through the cloisters is like walking through a living chapter of Portuguese history—a space that conveys faith, maritime power, and national identity.

I would always recommend doing this for at least the first day in a new city. It gave us a great sense of where things were and what was what. We found that riding the loop the entire loop and then getting off at tge sites we want to explore on the second route works best for us. The staff in Lisbon were very friendly and helpful.

Very talented musicians and excellent singers, they made us fall in love with Fado. None of the audience were Portuguese, and we had a wonderful time. Well done!
