About This Tour

A private tour for your group only, real stops at Alfama, Graça, São Jorge Castle, the National Pantheon, and Santa Luzia Church. This is a private tour for your group only. Real stops include Alfama, Graça, São Jorge Castle, the genuine National Pantheon, and Santa Luzia Church.

São Jorge Castle sits atop the highest of Lisbon's hills, and its real history runs back to the Moorish period — the fortress in roughly its current form dates substantially from the 10th and 11th centuries, when Lisbon was an important Moorish port city. It was taken by Christian forces under Afonso Henriques in 1147, during the Siege of Lisbon, one of the campaigns associated with the Second Crusade, and later served as a royal palace; it was here that King Manuel I received Vasco da Gama after his voyage to India.

Graça and Alfama, the neighborhoods this tour moves through on the way to and from the castle, are among the oldest in the city and were largely spared the worst of the 1755 earthquake thanks to their elevated, hillside position — a real contrast with the rebuilt, grid-planned streets found lower down in the Baixa district.

The National Pantheon, also known as the Church of Santa Engrácia, is Portugal's first Baroque monument, and it took an unusually long time to complete — construction began in the early 1680s and wasn't finished until 1966, roughly 284 years later, so long that 'the works of Santa Engrácia' became a real Portuguese expression for a never-ending project. It now holds the tombs of Portuguese presidents and notable national figures, including the writer Almeida Garrett and the fado singer Amália Rodrigues.
