The scavenger hunt focuses on the graffiti and street art of Almada, a favorite location for international writers like Elgee, Phnsk, Andre Trafic, and Mojojojo. As you search for your pieces, you learn about graffiti culture and slang. During the game, your team collects points for each piece found (a camera is needed to take pictures, either a smartphone or digital camera). It sounds easy, but there are some hidden and hard to find pieces that will challenge your hunting skills. The group with the most points after three rounds will win a fun Portuguese prize. This is a great activity for teenagers and anyone who appreciates art.
Included with your tour are stops at a local Portuguese food hall and the Christo Rei statue. Other popular Almada Velha locations can be added based on the availability and flexibility of the group. This is a fun and flexible way to see the popular South Bank attractions - It's like getting two tours for one low price!
Our starting point is the Farol de Cacilhas, the old restored lighthouse near the Transtejo Cacilhas terminal. We learn about Portuguese graffiti and street art and get our list of scavenger hunt pieces.
Our first portion of the scavenger hunt begins in Romeira, home to some of the best street art in Lisbon.
We take a short break at a popular 'locals only' restaurant, the Mercado da Ribeira, and try some authentic Portuguese favorites. Food price is not included with tour.
