About the Tour

Join me on a walking tour through some of Lisbon's most historic neighbourhoods. I’ve been a tour guide here for over five years and I love this city because each neighbourhood has its own story and character.
We start the tour in downtown Lisbon, with a pragmatic statesman and an earthquake that shook the city to its core. We’ll end it in Graça, with a sweeping view of the city and harbour below. Along the way, we'll pass colourful mosaics, regal squares and captivating street art.

A few of the highlights you can look forward to are:

Discovering where our hidden churches come from
Hearing about tolerance in São Domingos Square
Finding an interesting blend of tradition and multiculturalism in Mouraria
Discovering Fado music
Relaxing in the Garden of Cerca where you can catch your breath before our final breathtaking stop.

How VoiceMap Works

Focus on your surroundings, not the screen

The VoiceMap app uses GPS to play audio automatically, at the right time and place, so you can focus on your surroundings, not the screen.

Follow a route with turn-by-turn-directions

VoiceMap tours follow a route from a fixed starting point. That lets us give turn-by-turn directions and use context to tell a better story.

Resume playback to go at your own pace

If you'd like to stop for a drink or go into a museum, end your tour then use the Resume feature to pick up exactly where you left off.

Listen as many times as you like

You can listen to your tours as often as you like using both the VoiceMap app and website.

Take virtual tours anywhere, like a podcast

Select Virtual mode in the VoiceMap app to listen to tours like a podcast - at home or in transit.

Buy for less on voicemap.me and sync

Once you've purchased a tour, it's added to your VoiceMap library. To access it in the app, just sign in using the same account.

Do tours without paying for data

Tours work offline, so you don't have to pay roaming fees. Just download them over WiFi before you get started.

Tips

Places to stop along the way

''São Domingos'' church, ''Graça church, ''Tasca do Jaime'' if you happen to be there on a Saturday or Sunday afternoons. They have fado music performances.

Best time of day

It can be made at any time of the day but I will recommend in the afternoon if you don't want to miss the sunset in Lisbon's highest viewpoint!

Precautions

As in any other city, be aware of pickpockets. Bring comfortable shoes and water.
