Classic Lisbon
Lisbon's lighting is unique, rain or shine. We want you to revel in it and to see it reflected in the places that make Lisbon the special city it is, filled with history and traditions. With the Tagus River as a backdrop for the tour, we'll take you to the monuments that bear witness to our great voyage on seas which had never before been explored and where you can visit one of our most fascinating museums. We'll also take you to visit one of Lisbon's oldest and most traditional quarters, where Fado echoes around every corner. Join us in taking in the skies of Lisbon.
