The Experience

The first thing I remember is the way our tuk tuk rattled up a hill in Alfama, sunlight bouncing off those blue-and-white tiles. Our driver João grinned in the mirror and said something about “good legs or good engines” for these streets—honestly, I was glad we had both. The air smelled like coffee and laundry soap drifting from open windows. We squeezed past a tram so close I could’ve touched it (didn’t try). It felt like the city was waking up around us—old men arguing at a café, someone singing fado somewhere you couldn’t see.

I lost track of how many viewpoints we stopped at—Portas do Sol was my favorite, maybe because of the way the Tagus River caught the late morning light. João pointed out São Jorge Castle and told us how his grandmother used to sneak him pastries from a bakery nearby. At Senhora do Monte viewpoint, there was this weird hush—the kind that makes you want to whisper even though it’s outside. The whole city spread out below us: red roofs, tangled alleys, church domes. I tried to take a photo but it didn’t really work; some things just don’t fit inside your phone.

Bairro Alto was quieter than I expected in daylight (João winked and said “come back after midnight if you want noise”). Pink Street looked almost shy without its crowds—just a few locals setting up for lunch. When we reached Time Out Market Lisboa, he insisted we try pastéis de nata (“you have to eat them warm or it doesn’t count”). Powdered sugar everywhere. The private 4-hour Lisbon city highlights tour went by faster than I wanted; every corner seemed to have another story or mural or someone waving hello. There’s something about seeing Lisbon from that little open-air seat—with someone who knows all the shortcuts—that sticks with you long after you’ve left.
