Ride through Lisbon’s Christmas-lit center in a private electric tuk tuk for up to four people. Your English or Portuguese guide leads you past Commerce Square, Chiado, Bairro Alto, Baixa Pombalina, and the São Pedro de Alcântara viewpoint, with blankets and rain covers provided.

“Our tour with Miguel was amazing. He arrived before our scheduled departure and was incredibly professional. He adjusted the tour based on other tours that we had planned for Lisbon. Very knowledgeable. When we missed going inside one of the churches due to a wedding, he circled back to make sure we could go inside. At one point we were stuck in traffic as the 28 tram had broken down. He was so apologetic. We thought it was hilarious as it was a mess and added to the tour. I would highly recommend his tour.”
