Drive along Liberty Avenue, a charming ancient boulevard lined with gardens and known for its black-and-white mosaic sidewalks, to the old business and shopping district and the famous Rossio Square.
Enjoy a splendid view of Lisbon's center and Old Town from King Edward VII Park.
Passing under an 18th-century aqueduct, you will take the express road to Estoril — a resort town known for the many famous personalities exiled here during World War II. Use your free time here to stroll along the sea walk, photograph the Casino Gardens, or relax on your own at an outdoor café.
The drive back to the ship will take you along the beautiful Atlantic coastline. At the mouth of the harbor, you will enter Lisbon via its famous monumental district that celebrates the glorious heyday of global exploration.
Take advantage of one last photo stop near the spectacular memorial to Prince Henry the Navigator. This is also the ideal place from which to see the suspension bridge across the river and the statue of Christ the King on the far bank.
Notes:
Tour consists mainly of sightseeing from the transportation. Stops are brief, and participants can remain in the vehicle. Participants must be able to board the coach, unassisted, by way of steps.
