Tips to make the most of your Lisbon Sightseeing bus tour

  • Pre-book tickets to your attractions in advance so you don’t have to waste sightseeing time standing in ticketing queues.

  • Carry a reusable water bottle. The tap water in Lisbon is safe to drink, so staying hydrated will be easy.
  • If your itinerary involves visits to multiple attractions, get a Lisbon Card. Not only do you get free or discounted entry to multiple attractions, but also enjoy unlimited access to public transportation.
