Excellent ride around Lisbon old town. Best to do the trip at the beginning of your trip so you can see the sites you might want to go back to
We went in Mid-November to catch a cruise which came back from Lisbon a day early as is our practice. Next time we will arrive at least 3 days or a week early to enjoy the hospitality that is Lisbon. We took cabs from the airport to our downtown hotel which was fantastic.. within walking distance of everything and also the next day at noon to board our ship .. a 12 nighter back to Ft. Lauderdale aboard Azamara which was the best.
Sounds like you had a wonderful time in Lisbon and enjoyed the convenience of a downtown hotel and efficient cabs! Planning for a longer stay next time to savor Lisbon's hospitality is a great idea. The 12-night cruise with Azamara back to Ft. Lauderdale added to the memorable experience. Cheers to more fantastic travels!
