Tailgate Lisbon in a Tuk-Tuk

From $ 118
Lisbon Tailgate Tuk Tuk

Let loose on a wild ride (a modest three-wheeled mini-taxi) to the city’s ancient and modern marvels.

Take a break from convention and experience the contrast between old-world wonders and contemporary cool on a three-wheeled Tuk-Tuk. Moving through the narrow alleys in Alfama, the oldest area in the city, to the trendy Fado district, you’ll be surrounded by sights, sounds, and smells of Europe’s western city scene. Make sure to get some obligatory Tuk-Tuk shots as you pass by the Tagus River and taste the sweet pastel de nata, the irresistible Portuguese custard tart along the way.
