Continue to the Belem Tower, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the Monument to the Discoveries, where you’ll hear tales of Portugal’s Age of Exploration and its fearless adventurers.

Historic landmarks and Alfama views

Glide past Alfama, Lisbon’s oldest district, with its maze-like streets and pastel buildings, and take in the grandeur of São Jorge Castle perched above. São Jorge Castle dates back to the 11th century, originally built by the Moors as a defensive fortress. It was later expanded by the Christian forces after the Reconquista, becoming a royal residence and symbol of Lisbon's history. Watch as the golden light transforms these historic sites into a magical backdrop.

Commerce Square and return to Belém Dock

Surrounded by grand yellow buildings and the impressive Arco da Rua Augusta, it has long been a center of trade and activity. Once the site of the Royal Ribeira Palace, today it offers a vibrant atmosphere, with outdoor cafes and stunning river views. Conclude your journey with a serene return to Belém Dock, as the final rays of sunlight reflect off the water, leaving you with unforgettable memories.
