Ride through Lisbon with guides such as Sergio, Jonathan, Miguel, or Tercio, choosing the motorcycle seat or sidecar. This private 3.5-hour tour links Alfama, Belém, Jerónimos Monastery, Lisbon Cathedral, viewpoints, and local streets, with hotel pickup and drop-off.

“Can highly recommend this Sidecar tour. Sergio was a great guide, friendly and entertaining. We learnt a lot about Lisbon's history and a bit of politics. We saw many areas around Lisbon, and ended the tour out at Belem. Riding on the back of a motorbike was a fun exhilarating way to see the city. I also tried sitting in the sidecar, where I could take little videos on my phone. This isn't a tour where you stop and go inside places for long, more of a whistle-stop tour, but didn't feel rushed. My friend and I both loved the experience. Extra bonus, he took great photos and videos of…”

“We only had 2 days to fit as much sightseeing in as possible when in Lisbon last week. It was also my mums birthday so I booked the SideCar tour for us to discover Lisbon from a different angle and it didn't disappoint! Our driver was Luis and he was just brilliant. He knows Lisbon like the back of his hand. He brought us to off the beaten track locations as well as the main tourist sites. We ate amazing Pasteis de nata (Portuguese custard tarts) and were given loads of info of other places to visit to make the best of our short time in the city. My mum…”

“The tour in side car around Lisbon, with the guide, was a fantastic experience! The 1-hour duration of the tour is perfect to appreciate the ride with the vehicle, the tour around some great points of interest in Lisbon, without having to block half a day for the experience. The guide (french-speaking for our experience), was really attentive to us, helping us to get in and out of the vehicle if needed, and did not hesitate to make the tour last a little bit longer than scheduled. During the break, he also offered us coffee cups and local sweets, which was very well appreciated. Thank you very much for the…”
