Frequently Asked Questions
You can get to the viewpoint on foot, although it is a bit uphill. You can also easily order an Uber or a taxi to bring you to meet your expert guide.
Lisbon, overall, is quite a hilly city. Consider that there are mostly cobblestone streets, and this is a walking tour that mainly visits the exterior of various locations. While we have designed the tour to generally walk downhill, there may be some stairs and inclines. We may then have difficulty and a lack of control in curating the tour to fit the needs of someone with mobility issues.
