Explore Lisbon,

Like A Local.

About us

We are a small Lisbon based team who knows the city inside out. After years of wandering its neighbourhoods, cafés, workshops and backstreets, we decided to share the places we genuinely love. Independent restaurants, small shops, creative studios and local hangouts that reflect the real rhythm of the city. In 2025, we founded our non profit organisation, The Circular Shift, and launched the Circular Pass to make these places easier to discover. The response from travellers encouraged us to keep refining the selection, improving the experience, and building stronger connections with local businesses. Through the Circular Pass, we invite people to explore Lisbon differently. Away from international chains, closer to local craftsmanship and culture, while ensuring that part of the value created goes to initiatives that help preserve the spirit of the city.
