Welcome to the Belem Tower in Lisbon, Portugal!

Belem Tower is a 16th-century fortification located in Lisbon, Portugal. The tower was built in the Manueline style and is a prominent example of the Portuguese Renaissance. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most visited monuments in Portugal. The tower stands on a small islet in the Tagus River estuary and is a symbol of Lisbon. It is a square tower with four storeys, each with a different decorative element. The ground floor is a gateway, the first floor has windows and the second floor has a balcony. The top of the tower is decorated with intricate stonework. The tower was built to defend the city from attack and was also used as a lighthouse. It is now a popular tourist attraction with views over Lisbon and the river.

Excellent tour

The tour with Marisa was incredible! It’s provided such a wonderful story to all the sides that we had seen up to that point. She is passion for history, art and people, and that truly came out during the Tour when she was describing Lisbon and Portuguese events. I learned so much and my 13 year old daughter was very engaged and could not stop talking about it afterwards.

Great 3 Hour lisboa tour

Raluca was an excellent host and helped us prepare for Lisbon even before our arrival. She was communicative and very knowledgeable about the neighborhoods and sites. We got a great feel for the city and the back alleys and smaller streets in Alhambra. She also gave us good suggestions for the afternoon. Including jeronimo and the maritime museum. We would recommend her to anyone visiting Lisboa.

Informative historical and cultural tour

Rita is an excellent guide. She has passion about Portugal and was so informative about the history and culture. The tour I booked was for Belem but it was so much more. I felt like I was on a tour with an old friend. We stopped by the original pastel de nata bakery- that was the best of all the pastries I had during my trip. A private tour is the way to go- you get so much insight of the aspects of Portuguese life that is of interest to you and your group.
