Travellers’ Secrets

Tour by tram

Tram No. 28 is the best way to explore the city. Departing from Martim Moniz the route takes you through medieval districts to panoramic lookouts, taking in architectural styles ranging from Art Nouveau to Romanesque along the way. A must-do!

Seafood with a view

If you want to escape the city, head west to Ericeira, a beautiful natural harbour, with a selection of fine sandy beaches, Lisbon’s favourite seaside retreat. The beaches are very popular surfing spots and the town is renowned for its excellent seafood with a selection of great harbour-side restaurants.

As night falls, jump on one of the Elevador’s (tram) and head up to Bairro Alto to discover a selection of the city’s bars and restaurants.
