De ervaring

Over deze quest

Step into Lisbon’s hidden layers—Alfama’s twisting alleys, secret staircases, and ancient walls hold stories waiting to be uncovered. Solve puzzles linked to saints, legends, and long-forgotten events while exploring ruins, murals, and panoramic viewpoints. Every street, tile, and statue whispers secrets. Will you uncover the mysteries hidden in the city before time runs out? 

Is dit iets voor jullie?

Voor wie het is

Couples and families with school-age children who want to explore Alfama on their own will enjoy this 2.1 km climb from the statue of King José I up to Castelo de São Jorge. Along the way you pass Lisbon Cathedral, Saint Anthony's church, a history mural and two viewpoints, solving medium puzzles about saints and legends. If steep stairs and uneven hills are hard for you, or you want a live guide, choose another tour.

Veelgestelde vragen

Is this a free self-guided alternative to a Lisbon free tour?
Yes, it is free to play. Instead of joining a guided group, you follow the route on your phone, which tells the story of each place and sets puzzles as you go. There is no guide, so you can start whenever you like and walk at your own pace.
Where does the walk start and finish?
It starts at the Equestrian Statue of King José I and finishes at Castelo de São Jorge, so it is not a loop. In between you pass Casa dos Bicos, the Church of Saint Anthony, Lisbon Cathedral, Escadinhas de São Miguel, and the Portas do Sol and Santa Luzia viewpoints.
How long does it take and how far is it?
Most players take about 1.5 to 2 hours, including walking and puzzles, to cover roughly 2.1 km. The route climbs through Alfama with varied terrain and stairs, so allow time for breaks, bring water, and wear a hat and sunscreen on sunny days.
Is it suitable for kids?
It is tagged family friendly, with puzzles of medium difficulty, so it suits school-age children who enjoy solving clues and can manage uphill streets and staircases. The varied terrain and elevation may be tiring for very young children, and it may not suit anyone with limited mobility.
Do we need to book a time, and can we pause?
No booking is needed. The route is open 24/7, although it is better during daylight hours, and there is no group to meet. You can pause and continue later. Make sure your phone is fully charged or bring a power bank.
