Is Lisbon wheelchair and stroller-friendly?

Unfortunately, no. People using wheelchairs and strollers will have a difficult time on Lisbon’s steep, narrow, cobblestone pathways. A taxi will be the best way to get around the city and is fortunately not too expensive. Call ahead to all restaurants, museums, churches, and historical sites before going to ensure you will be able to visit to its full extent.

What is Lisbon's culinary scene like?

As a sea-faring people, the Portuguese have incorporated foreign spices and tastes into their local cuisine over hundreds of years. Expect to have plenty of seafood options, like flaked cod and grilled sardines. If fish isn’t your thing, Bifana (pork sandwiches) are also excellent. For dessert, make sure you have pastéis de nata (Portuguese custard tarts) from the Belem district paired with local wine.

Is it safe to travel around Lisbon?

Lisbon is generally safe with low crime rates and a welcoming atmosphere. Of course, take all your standard precautions, be aware of your surroundings, and keep your belongings on you.

Yes, Lisbon has many hills and steep walks. Comfortable shoes are a must. Public transit can help you get where you need if it is too strenuous, so hop on one of the many bright yellow trams.

Can I use my Spanish in Portugal?

In short, yes. Spanish and Portuguese have many similarities and you will find yourself being able to understand some Portuguese without having ever studied it. A lot of Portuguese people, especially in Lagos and Lisbon, will speak English and Spanish.

Are there direct trains between Lagos and Lisbon?

No. Anyone traveling between Lagos and Lisbon by train will have to switch trains at Albufeira - Ferreiras. The journey takes between 4-6 hours if there is no delay.

How is the public transportation system in Lisbon?

Lisbon's public transportation system is efficient and extensive. It has buses, trams, metro, and trains, providing easy access to the city's attractions and surrounding areas.

What souvenirs should I buy in Lisbon?

Popular souvenirs from Lisbon include traditional Portuguese ceramics, handmade tiles (called azulejos), and products made from cork. Gourmet foods like pastéis de nata, local wines (like Port), and cheeses are another great choice. Be sure to double-check your luggage and customs rules before bringing food and drink through the airport!

Amazing service

“After a lot of research for our trip to Spain/Portugal, I happened upon Daytrip. The company arranges drivers all over Europe — not just Prague. The website is easy to use and the staff answers your questions within hours. Apprehensive at first because I never heard of them, i asked lots of questions and always got quick satisfactory answers. I booked two trips — from Seville Spain to Lagos Portugal and then from Lagos to Lisbon. Both drivers showed up timely with nice cars and dropped us off at our destination as scheduled. The prices are reasonable and the private car relieves you of all stress related traveling. No need for buses or rental cars. Simple. Highly recommend.”

Lagos to Lisbon with a stop at Silves Castle

“We took the daytrip service from Lagos to Lisbon in July 2019. The service was outstanding. We were a bit worried trying this for the first time, but it worked out extremely well. Daytrip sent us the driver name and car information a few days before the trip. Duarte, our driver was there on time and picked us up from the hotel. We had a nice stop at Silves castle en route. This was our first trip to Portugal and we had a great conversation with Duarte and received nice tips from him on what to do in Lisbon. It was a very comfortable drive and we reached Lisbon on time as planned. This service is a great option if you want to stop en route, visit sites or stretch your legs, and prefer door to door service.”

Lisbon to Lagos Portugal and Lagos to Seville

“Three of us booked a driver in June to take us from Lisbon to Lagos on the southern coast and a few days later, had another driver take us to Seville. We looked into renting a car, but it was too expensive to take it across the border into Spain.We also looked into buses or trains, but decided on the private driver with -door to door service. The price was very reasonable and emails were quickly returned and the details worked out smoothly. We especially loved Carlos, our driver from Lisbon. We opted for a stop at a castle along the way and Carlos directed us to a wonderful spot for lunch.Prompt door to doo service at a reasonable price. Highly recommend.”
