This is one of the most visited areas by tourists presenting historic monuments, fascinating museums and carefully maintained parks, all of which line the cooling waters of the Tagus estuary. Here you will find Belém Tower, considered the highest expression of Manueline architecture for its profuse and elegant decoration, was granted Cultural Heritage of Humanity status by UNESCO in 1983.

Belem and vr experience

Really good tour. The monuments in Belem are just magnificent, the tickets to enter are not included but from the outside, you get a general idea and the guide explained everything about each one. The virtual experience was really interesting and fun!

Perfecte eerste dag in Lissabon

Deze dagtour door Lissabon was absoluut perfecte in elk opzicht! Speciaal gemaakt door de chauffeur en gids en ook de nieuwe vrienden die we hebben ontmoet, we konden het allemaal zo goed met elkaar vinden. Dit was een geweldig overzicht voor een eerste bezoeker aan Lissabon.

Lisbon City Tour: Belém and Cristo Rei

To dobra jednodniowa wycieczka po Lizbonie, aby poznać miasto i jego historię. To miła mieszanka jazdy konnej i chodzenia. Przewodnik był niesamowicie gorąco polecany.
