In our latest e-tour we take you to Lisbon, Portugal – the second oldest capital city in Europe.

A rich melting pot of cultures, Lisbon is renowned for its mesmerizing architecture, which effectively blends medieval, renaissance and modern styles.

According to the legend, Lisbon, much like Rome, was founded on seven hills, each of which boasts breathtaking views – even tile sidewalks are a sight to behold in the city.

Reach each of Lisbon’s seven hills with a local tram, enjoy this European gem and see for yourself why Black expats are flocking to it – with DETOUR.
