The experience

The electric Scott bikes with Bosch System motors are what make this tour work. Lisbon's hills are steep enough that many cyclists find the city punishing, but the e-bike boost lets you reach viewpoints most visitors never see. You'll climb to Graça to photograph Castelo de Sao Jorge from above, then drop into Alfama to pass the old fish market, public laundry and narrow streets where the jewish quarter sits close to the Sé District. A local guide leads the whole route and speaks English.

The three hours move through five distinct stops. You'll stand at the first viewpoint looking down into Alfama, then push higher to a second vantage point before reaching Miradouro Senhora de Monte: the one most people call "the viewpoint." The panoramic sweep from there takes in the whole city. If you book an evening departure at 4pm, 3pm, 6pm or later, you'll watch the sunset from one of these elevated spots. The ride covers the historic districts of Graça, Alfama and Baixa, and the e-bike means you're not exhausted by the time you reach the best views.

Everything you need is provided: helmet, rain poncho if the weather turns, bottled water, and storage at the shop for anything you don't want to carry. The tour runs eight times a day starting at 7am, so you can choose a morning slot to beat the crowds or an afternoon one if you prefer. Children must be accompanied by an adult, and the operator notes the tour suits all physical fitness levels. The electric assist is what makes that true.

Top questions

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

What's the Miradouro Senhora de Monte like compared to other Lisbon viewpoints?

Miradouro Senhora de Monte is considered by many the definitive Lisbon viewpoint, offering a panoramic sweep of the entire city. It's the final stop on the tour and sits high enough that the 360-degree perspective includes the castle, the river, and the neighborhoods you've cycled through below.

How steep are the hills on this electric bike tour?

Lisbon's hills are steep enough that the city is known as challenging for cyclists, but the Scott e-bikes with Bosch motors provide the boost to climb them without exhaustion. The electric assist is what lets the tour reach the city's highest points and suit all fitness levels.

Can I take this tour if I've never ridden an electric bike before?

Yes. The tour suits all physical fitness levels, and the electric assist does the hard work on climbs. The guide leads the route and the bikes are standard Scott models with straightforward Bosch motors, so no prior e-bike experience is needed.

What time should I book if I want to see the sunset?

The evening departures at 3pm, 4pm, 6pm and 6pm are timed to reach the elevated viewpoints as light fades. The exact timing of sunset shifts with the season, so an afternoon slot gives you the best chance to catch it from Miradouro Senhora de Monte or another high vantage point.

Is lunch included, and where do we stop to eat?

Lunch is not included in the tour price. The 3-hour ride focuses on the hills and viewpoints, and you'll return to the shop where storage is available if you want to explore cafes or restaurants in the neighborhood afterward.
