Summary
A multi centre holiday to Lisbon is a city break and seaside holiday combined. Portugal’s capital is on the Atlantic Coast, and there are several beaches within easy reach where you can enjoy some open-air swimming in far warmer temperatures than here in the UK.
Also known as ‘The City of Seven Hills’, Lisbon has many wonderful vantage points where you can enjoy a quiet moment or gaze in awe at a romantic sunset. Some of our recommended places to enjoy the views include Panorâmico de Monsanto, Miradouro da Graça and Miradouro de Nossa Senhora do Monte. There are trams and funiculars in Lisbon to help take the strain away from your legs on the many ascents and descents.
Alternatively, you might want to spend a relaxing evening at one of the city’s many rooftop bars. A chilled-out soundtrack from a local DJ can make the experience of having a few drinks and recalling the highlights of your day even more special.
The city has many magnificent buildings to explore. Belem Tower, Jerónimos Monastery and Castelo de São Jorge are three splendid examples of architectural excellence and have great stories to tell.
Trying new foods is always a holiday highlight. The egg custard tarts available throughout Lisbon, known locally as pastéis de nata, are a tasty treat. Taking a guided culinary tour will give you a fantastic flavour of some of the best eateries without having to do lots of research yourself before you fly.
