Alfama suits an independent, flexible stroll. Choose a few streets, pause at a viewpoint and turn back whenever you wish. The experience lies in neighbourhood details rather than a ticketed attraction.

What is free

Walking through the neighbourhood's public streets is free.

What is not included

Museums, fado performances, restaurants and transport are not included.

Before you go

This is a residential area with slopes and steps. Keep noise down, stay out of private courtyards and ask before taking close photographs of residents.
