    What you'll see and do

    1. Castelo de Arouce - Lousa

      Also known as Castle of Lousã, it is part of one of the first defensive lines created in the second half of the 11th century to control accesses south to Coimbra.

      20 minutes here

    2. Praia Fluvial da Senhora de Piedade

      Next to the castle is the river beach of Our Lady of Mercy. Here, the main attraction is a small waterfall, and a baloit over the water ready for an original photo.

      10 minutes here

    3. Hidden in a small valley, the village of Cerdeira is a village of shale houses that were in danger of disappearing... Slowly, the Cerdeira Village project began to gain shape until 2018, when it became Cerdeira – Home for Creativity, a community of arts where creativity and nature are the denominator.

      15 minutes here

    4. Aldeia Do Candal

      Near the river of São João, this natural village nestles in an amphitheatre called Candal. Benefitting from the ease of access compared to other villages, Candal is generally considered the most developed of the shale villages and is one of the most visited.

      10 minutes here

    5. Aldeia do Talasnal

      Talasnal is the shale village of Serra da Lousã that has given the most visibility and charm to visitors. Its size and disposition, together with many details of the restoration of its homes, give this unique place a magical aura. In addition, it is a village that seduces us by the mouth where you can eat some of the best delicacies of the Lousã mountain.

      40 minutes here

    6. Aldeia do Casal Novo

      Surrounded by a green to lose sight, the New Couple is the dream of living in the countryside. This once abandoned village has been reconquering residents to its relatively large shale houses where viewpoints and balconies break the monotony. A steep staircase, the main street, (which is a staircase) leads to two stairs from where you can see the beautiful Serra da Lousã.

      15 minutes here

    7. Aldeia do Chiqueiro

      Once an important serrana village, today, Chiqueiro is one of the smallest villages of shale. Despite this, it captivates visitors from the first glance. Walking through the chafarz, the tank and the chapel, observing the houses, where you still live as before, or just enjoying the spectacular landscape, are truly gratifying pleasures.

    Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.

    How much does Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã cost?

    +

    Prices start at $401 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lisbon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã take?

    +

    Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lisbon is not rushed.

    Is Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lisbon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã?

    +

    Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lisbon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lisbon and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lisbon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Lisbon?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Lisbon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lisbon City Center Tour - The Unmissable Lisbon, Sintra Private Trip from Lisbon Customizable Dreamlike Experience, Escape Hunt Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Lisbon?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Lisbon?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; WiFi on board; Mineral Water on Board; AC and RC Insurance; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Meals; and Gratifications. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 405 listed pickup locations in and around Lisbon. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Portuguese, English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã?

    +

    What happens to Full Day Private Tour in the Villages of Shisto of Lousã if the weather is bad?
