Lisbon, like a local
Don't miss
- Alfama: Oldest neighbourhood. Get lost in the alleys. Fado music drifts from doorways.
- Belem Tower + Jeronimos Monastery: Maritime history and Manueline architecture. Go early.
- Miradouro da Graca / Miradouro da Senhora do Monte: Best sunset views over the whole city
- Time Out Market: Food hall with top Lisbon chefs under one roof. Lunch is best.
Where to eat
- Pastel de nata from Pasteis de Belem: The original custard tart. Queue moves fast. Eat warm with cinnamon.
- A Cevicheria: Peruvian-Portuguese fusion. The ceviche is perfection.
- Cervejaria Ramiro: Legendary seafood. Prawns, clams, steak sandwich to finish. Worth the wait.
Do this
- Ride Tram 28: Rattles through Alfama and Graca. Touristy but still magical — go early.
- Fado in Alfama: Live traditional Portuguese music in a tiny tavern. Emotional. Order wine.
- Sunset at a miradouro with a Super Bock: The cheapest, best evening in Lisbon
Local tips
- Wear comfortable shoes: the hills are no joke. Cobblestones are slippery when wet.
- Tram 28 is a pickpocket hotspot. Keep valuables in a front zipped pocket.
- Ginjinha (cherry liqueur): try a shot at A Ginjinha near Rossio. €1.50.
- Sintra is a must day trip (40min train). Book Pena Palace in advance.
