Overview of your Lisbon tour

Lisbon is my hometown! To be a "Lisboeta" is to know how to walk while looking up enjoying the bluest of skies, spot the best spots for a picture or to follow the smell of local espresso. Let me introduce you to the scenic narrow streets of some of the oldest neighborhoods in the city, where locals give us the perception of what means to live in a place founded almost 3000 years ago! A place with light, soul and character. Personally I believe Lisbon wouldn't be as it is if not for our river Tagus, gateway for cruises from worldwide and the most amazing water mirror you've seen. Vibrant, eclectic, modern and but keeping its traditions, Lisbon as always been a safe harbor for locals and visitors! Come and join me and you'll fall in love with mainland Europes westernmost point!
