    Do not book- company gone

    The operator did not show up or respond to my messages at all. We waited almost a hour at the designated location.(s) as they booking has three pick up spots listed. This is either a scam or the company no longer exists.

    Too funny to not take part

    Such a fun way to explore the city. Great guide that provides infon about the city, but also time enough for fun. Hour and a half flew by , can only recommend!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the lovely review. Lisbon trully is a fun place to know by Sitway, expecially with such a fun group :-). We're happy you enjoyed the tour.

    Have they gone bust?

    Similiar to another user I turned up, no one showed tried both numbers (calling and texting) and stayed an hour at a nearby restaurant. Also tried the website. Now trying to get the booking company to refund. Based on the other reviews I'm guessing they've gone bust but still showing as active. Wouldn't the best idea there be to shut down the business with a message and maybe reopen in the future.

    Response from the operator: Hi, We're so sorry for what happened back then. Indeed, Sitgo wasn't operational at that time (since the pandemic) and the calendars were supposed to be closed. By now Sitgo is open again under new management/ownership and ready to hopefully take you on a tour in the future. Kind regards, Sitgo

    Worth it !

    Fantastic concept, better than walking as you. An see places faster. The only issue is that in August Lisbon is crowded and not always easy to slalom around the walkers. Good fun with friends, just riding was exciting ! No pictures as riding this thing and taking pics is dangerous ;-) I was riding more than sightseeing...

    Response from the operator: Hello Pierre, Thank you very much for your review! We hope to see you back to Lisbon enjoying the sitways in one of our other tour locations. Thank you, Gonçalo Martins

    Old Town Sitway Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Old Town Sitway Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $52 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 Old Town Sitway Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.5 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 Old Town Sitway Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 19 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 Old Town Sitway Tour?

    +

    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 Old Town Sitway Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Old Town Sitway Tour?

    +

    Around 7 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 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Old Town Sitway Tour 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, True 4Hour Private Tuk Tuk Tour: Discover Lisbon with a Local!. 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 Old Town Sitway Tour?

    +

    Included: Insurances; Professional guide; 1 Sitway; Locker; and Helmet. Not included: Food and drinks; and Hotel pickup and drop-off. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Old Town Sitway Tour?

    +

    In front of the "Gelataria Fiori". Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Old Town Sitway Tour offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Portuguese and English. 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 Old Town Sitway Tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Old Town Sitway Tour if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Lisbon. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.

    What do travelers say about Old Town Sitway Tour?
