6 days in Lisbon Itinerary

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

Change things up with these side-trips from Lisbon: Sintra (Quinta da Regaleira, Castelo dos Mouros, &more) and Parque Natural da Arrabida (in Setubal). There's much more to do: make a trip to Belém Tower, observe the fascinating underwater world at Lisbon Oceanarium, wander the streets of Alfama, and explore the historical opulence of Castelo de S. Jorge.
