Praça do Comércio, still commonly referred to by its former name as Terreiro do Paço, is a square in downtown Lisbon located next to the Tagus River, in the area that was the site of the palace of the kings of Portugal for about two centuries and which today it is partially occupied by some government departments. It is one of the biggest squares in Europe.
Stunning triumphal arch completed in 1875 with sculpted figures and views of the city center.
In order to issue the Legal Time for the city and, especially, for ships anchored in the Tagus, a guardhouse was built in 1914 in the Cais do Sodré area, equipped with a mechanical clock connected directly by electric cable to the Lisbon Astronomical Observatory ( OAL)
Pier from the end of the s. XVIII, with 2 columns flanking marble stairs and sunset views along the Tagus River.
This square houses the seat of the Lisbon City Hall and Council - at its center we can find the Lisbon Pillory, a sculpted stone column with symbolic political, administrative and judicial significance.

We had a fabulous time exploring Lisbon with Guillame. He understood that we had experience on segways already and this meant our tour started quickly and he even incorporated some hills and tricky bits. We saw lots of main sights and it helped us orientate around Lisbon on our first morning.
Kimono (not sure I've spelt this ok 🙁) was very informative, always looking out for the group, showed us a great deal of the city and explaining questions we put to him as well as giving some excellent tips and recommendations- thank you
We had a private Segway tour with G. Having done a Segway tour in Barcelona we have decided this is the best way to see a city. This one did not disappoint, from G’s encyclopaedic knowledge of the history of Lisbon, to the route and city sights. We especially liked going up and down the narrow cobbled streets by the castle. Could not recommend it more.
We’ve had a fantastic morning exploring Lisbon on Segway‘s, our tour guide G was fantastic, so knowledgeable, friendly and helpful would highly recommend this tour, great value in a wonderful way to see Lisbon.
Wonderful experience as Cameron was such a great teacher spending time (at least 20 mins) and building our confidence for the first timers before we even set off
Mini group tour was awesome! Shout out to G. Amazing tour guide and Segway pro! The best way to see Lisboa!
Went on private tour with my mate from Bali. Kimani was an amazing guide. Super knowledgeable and friendly. Took us to some neat spots. Highly recommend doing this in Lisbon. Been to Lisbon before and seeing it on Segway was the best. Ask for kimani. Thanks kimani you made the end of our golf trip fantastic!!!
Our guides were very flexible and provided us with a great experience. We would book again at any time!!
I always love getting a segway tour of a city it is a quick way to see all the major sights but also the Segway is a lot of fun especially in a city full of hills.
