Lisbon is a capital that has an incredible nightlife but remains safe and friendly. Experience this nightlife on a 5-hour tour that takes you around the city in the evening.

a pleasant outing and a pleasant attentive guide. This outing allowed us to learn a lot of things about Lisbon and to discover Fado, this traditional Portuguese song.

I loved the night at Guitarras de Liboa, the singers, the food and the cozy atmosphere. Hope to return soon.
