Morning light in Lisbon street photography walk

See Lisbon through the eyes of a local photographer on this three-hour small-group walk. Instead of rushing between landmarks, you’ll slow down and explore how light, rhythm, and daily life shape the feel of the city. The route runs from the upper Baixa-Chiado exit down toward Rua Augusta and Pink Street, then loops up to follow the Tram 28 line into Alfama. We'll work the way around the inside of Alfama while the light is still good, then end at Feira da Ladra.

Your guide, Jaki, is a Lisbon-based photographer and co-founder of the Lisbon Street Photo Fest. He shares a working photographer’s approach to observation, timing, and composition, helping you understand how to see what most visitors miss. Whether you use a phone or a camera, you’ll finish with a new way of seeing Lisbon and a better sense of how to photograph any city you visit.

This route comes out of the work Jaki does for Lisbon Street Photo Fest. Every year he builds photo walk routes for the guest photographers so they have somewhere to start when they're new to the city. This one is based on the route I built for Phil Penman, with a few small changes to hit extra spots I like.
