Overview

Did you know that Lisbon is even more beautiful when seen from the Tagus River south bank? Experience Lisbon from a different perspective, from the river level to the 133 meter-high (436 ft) Sanctuary of Christ the King.

The Tagus river crossing is on Lisbons iconic boat, the Cacilheiro.

On the south bank, we ride our electric bikes along the river, at our own pace, surrounded by tranquility.

The Sanctuary of Christ the King or Cristo Rei is high above us, but with electric bikes we dont even feel the steepness.

Our first stop is at Casa da Cerca Center for Contemporary Art, for coffee and a visit to the house and its beautiful garden.

When in the Sanctuary, the view becomes even more amazing, with the huge Tagus River, the bridges, the colorful houses, the green Monsanto Forest and much more. You would want to lose yourself in the landscape.

The return is downhill, yet with a stop at the pleasant pedestrian street Cndido dos Reis.

The ferry awaits us back to Lisbon.

Next, head to the recent developments of Ribeira das Naus, a former shipyard area where many of the Portuguese ships that set sail to discover new worlds were built.
Upon arrival at Cais do Sodr, take the ferry across the River Tagus.
Once on the south bank, cycle through the Cais do Ginjal, a former warehouse that used to supply bait and ice to the cod fishing boats of the North Seas. Take the Boca do Vento lift to get closer to the statue of Cristo Rei (Christ the King), or cycle up the hill on the electric bike. From the hilltop, enjoy magnificent views of Lisbon and the 25 of April Bridge.
After a short coffee break in the botanic gardens of Casa da Cerca, climb to the top of the Sanctuary of Christ the King for the best view of the city.
Take advantage of the great photo op before biking back downhill towards the river to the narrow streets of Almada.
Spend time exploring the area and visit the Medieval Museum, home to relics of Islamic life in Portugal in the Middle Ages.
The return is downhill, yet with a stop at the pleasant pedestrian street Cndido dos Reis.
Then cross the river again to return to the meeting point and the end of the tour.

    Wir erlebten mit unserem Guide einen traumhaften Tag auf der "anderen Seite" von Lissabon. Die Ausblicke waren überwältigend und genau das Richtige nach einem "lauten, vollen, dreckigen" Vortag. Wir wurden mit Geschichte und aktuellen Ereignissen von Lissabon und dem urbanen Raum um Lissabon sehr gut unterhalten und informiert. Die Ausführungen in Länge und Inhalt waren genau richtig. Obwohl wir aus Deutschland sind und die Führung in Englisch gehalten wurde, war es für uns kein Problem allem zu Folgen. PS.: Da die Fähre nur 4 Fahrräder mitnimmt, war die Führung nur für meine Frau und mich. Somit war es eine Privattour. Top.

    Expérience incroyable que de partir du centre de Lisbonne jusqu’au Christ roi en vélo (en prenant la navette pour traverser le fleuve bien sûr). Heureusement que les vélos sont électriques car la montée est sportive mais cela vaut vraiment le coup : la réplique du Christ roi brésilien est magnifique et la vue de Lisbonne et du pont du 25 avril est époustouflante. Lizio, notre guide, a été formidable, partageant avec nous ses connaissances historiques du Portugal. Il a été prévenant et à l’écoute. A vivre +++

    Nice bike tour to Christ the king statue. It was nice to get out of the busy city for a little while.

    Notre coup de coeur depuis notre début du séjour. Nous avons eu la chance d’avoir Xavier comme accompagnateur pendant 3 voire quasi 4 heures. Ce fut un pur bonheur car il parle parfaitement français et en plus il a une culture politique / historique qui nous a réellement emballé. C’est un globe trotteur à l’écoute bref un vrai professionnel ! Merci merci Xavier pour ce moment de partage inoubliable !!!

    The electric bikes are really easy and you get a very cool view of the city. Would highly recommend this if you are willing to explore the city in an alternative way.

    Wir hatten zwei tolle Reiseguides, es war sehr sehenswert. Wir haben auch ein Museum besucht, wo früher die alte Werft war.

    Nous avons fait la sortie en velo de 3h jusqu'au Christ Roi avec Ricardo et Paolo. Je les recommande !! Ils sont super, parlent bien français et expliquent au maximum !! Le matériel est de qualité et on ne sent peu l'effort. Et pour finir, Ricardo connait de bonnes adresses où aller manger après tant de kilomètres parcourus !!!
