What to expect

Lisbon Baixa and Chiado walking route

This self-guided route links Lisbon's Baixa and Chiado districts, taking you through the rebuilt downtown shaped after the great earthquake. Across about 1.8 km and 7 stops, you move from the riverfront and grid-like streets up toward the higher ground around Carmo and Chiado.

Features

• A self-guided audio tour of Lisbon, narrated stop by stop in English, explains how the city's downtown was rebuilt after the great earthquake and highlights details like the standardized facades along Rua Augusta and the hidden engineering of the Pombaline grid.
• The interactive GPS map with route shows your live position, every stop, and walking directions from one point to the next so you always know where you are in Baixa and when you are climbing toward Carmo and Chiado.
• Lifetime access to the audio tour keeps it in your account before and after your booking date, so you can replay the stories about Baixa, the open Carmo ruins, or the views from near the Arco da Rua Augusta rooftop terrace whenever you like.
• A route of 7 stops over about 1.8 km is designed for an easy pace through mostly flat streets, with one steeper climb near the end toward Carmo and Chiado, where you can choose to save energy or use the nearby Santa Justa lift.
• Start anytime with no fixed departures or group to join, which lets you follow the suggested best times such as early morning for the riverfront square or late afternoon for the Chiado slopes, and pause for a coffee before continuing.
• Use the optional free Roamer app for iPhone if you prefer to download the tour and walk Baixa and Chiado with no signal, or listen in your browser with mobile data on another smartphone.
