Tour overview
Urban Lisbon and medieval Óbidos in one balanced day.
Start with a focused introduction to Lisbon, connecting its historic districts with the Tagus riverfront and the monuments of Belém. Continue north to Óbidos, where whitewashed houses, narrow streets and fortified walls create a distinctly different sense of place. Because the tour is private, the final balance between viewpoints, landmarks and walking is agreed around your interests, mobility and traffic, while monument admission remains separate from the group price.
