On our bike tour we take a dive into the cultural abundance of the different quarters. We bike first to Alfama, the oldest district in town that stayed intact during the past centuries and has just started its revival. After we find our way out of the labyrinth of the district’s crooked alleys we take a glimpse at the oldest Cathedral of Lisbon, called Sé. Our next stop is Baixa, the real heart of the city where straight streets, just like a chessboard, cross each other.
To get back to in shape, we do a decent climb on the city’s most famous avenue, Avenida de Liberdade to see where the nobility took their night strolls centuries ago. On our way back we discover the vibrant night district, Bairro Alto and a few of the hidden night life areas.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud

It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:

  • It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
  • If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
  • Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
