The stops
Travel time, priorities and our practical take.
01
O Mundo Fantástico da Sardinha Portuguesa
Quick stop
The first stop, about 34 minutes from the hotel.
Our take
It opens the day toward the center. It is very interesting to see the sardine shop and the process of making sardines.
02
Elevador da Glória
Must do
The funicular, about 5 minutes from the previous stop.
Our take
It takes you to the viewpoint. Ride it up, rather than walking, if it is running.
03
Igreja de São Roque & Lunch
Cultural stop
The church, about 4 minutes on. Eat up the hill before Carmo.
Our take
Eat up here, around the church, before the 14:30 entry.
04
Convento do Carmo
Must do
Entry at 14:30, €4 bought there. It is about 5 minutes away.
Our take
This is the early-afternoon time. Finish lunch up the hill first, it is a nice place to visit.
05
Pink Street
Scenic stop
Rua Nova do Carvalho, about 10 minutes from Carmo.
Our take
A walk down toward the river. Very interesting to see the pink street and the view of the river.
06
Praça do Comércio
Must do
The square on the river, about 10 minutes from Pink Street.
Our take
From here you will walk toward the cathedral and the castle. If you have time, visit the Centro Interpretativo da História do Bacalhau
07
Lisbon Cathedral
Cultural stop
The cathedral, about 10 minutes from the square.
Our take
This is the climb toward the castle. Crossing the churchyard is enough.
08
Castelo de São Jorge
Must do
The castle, €15, about an hour and a half, 10 minutes from the cathedral.
Our take
The long visit of the afternoon. In summer the last entry is 20:30, but do not leave it until last if you also want Portas do Sol.
09
Miradouro das Portas do Sol
Must do
The last viewpoint, about 5 minutes on.
Our take
It closes the Alfama loop before the walk back to the hotel.
