Begin your tour in Praça do Comércio, an imposing square facing the blue Tagus River, Lisbon’s historic gateway for vessels during the Age of Discoveries.
Travel through the 18th-century downtown, rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake, and climb up the hills to reach stunning hilltop monuments. Enter the narrow streets of Alfama, Lisbon’s oldest quarter, full of Roman remains, Arabic influences, and charming details that inspired Fado songs, along with the 12th-century imposing Cathedral and the St. Jorge Castle crowning the hill.
There’s so much more to discover aboard this vintage tram, a beloved part of Lisbon’s scenery since the 19th century. Feel the city’s rhythm, capture unforgettable photos, and immerse yourself in the sights, sounds, and stories of a truly unique Lisbon. Ready to hop on?

1.00I can’t review it because we weren’t able to go because of late flights. I’m waiting to hear about getting a refund. If we do, we will rebook, this time with 9 people instead of 5. Hope they do it.

5.00Although I've been to Portugal on many occasions over the years this was my first visit to Lisbon, loved the city ,its vibrant and beautiful, my twin brother and I decided to go with Yellow Bus Tours Lisbon and book the Lisbon Hills Red Tram,we were not disappointed. A vintage tram meanders upto the Alfama neighborhood of Lisbon, the oldest district of Lisbon, the route takes in many architectural gems ,its a photographers dream ,so many beautiful buildings including the famous Sé De Lisboa and Castelo De Sao Jorge up in the hills and so many other beautiful buildings,we both loved this tour,a highlight of our holiday, thanks again Yellow Bus Tours Lisbon.

5.00We loved the experience with the Yellow Tours Lisbon! Raquel received us super well, always very friendly, helpful and attentive. It was she who advised us the Lisbon Hills Red Tram tour with the route of the tram 28, and it was indeed an excellent suggestion. The route is actually very beautiful, it passes through historical areas and incredible viewpoints, giving to know Lisbon in a very typical and quiet way. We highly recommend Yellow Tours Lisbon, have an excellent service!

3.00The tram pickup was confusing and the first agent at the right location told us to go somewhere else (wrong location). After an hour of trying to figure it out, we went back to the original location and they let us right on. The ride was decent but showed much less of the city than we thought and circled back on the same track. Not having to stand was great. Ok but wouldn’t do it again.
