6 days in Lisbon Itinerary

Built on seven hills, Lisbon has experienced a renaissance in recent years, making it the cultural star of Portugal.

Get out of town with these interesting Lisbon side-trips: Dolphin & Whale Watching (in Nazare), Sintra (Quinta da Regaleira, Castelo dos Mouros, & more) and Parque Natural da Arrabida (in Setubal). And it doesn't end there: admire nature's wide array of creatures at Lisbon Oceanarium, don't miss a visit to Praca do Comercio (Terreiro do Paco), identify plant and animal life at Wildlife Areas, and pause for some photo ops at Padrao dos Descobrimentos.

If you are flying in from Belgium, the closest major airport is Humberto Delgado Airport (Lisbon Portela Airport). In August, plan for daily highs up to 35°C, and evening lows to 20°C. Finish your sightseeing early on the 15th (Thu) so you can travel back home.
