Lisbon Vacations and Tour Packages

Overview

Lisbon is a captivating city sprawling across the steep Portugal hillsides overlooking the River Tagus, with enchanting tree-lined avenues, verdant parks, historic neighbourhoods, and inviting cobblestone lanes. 

Immersing yourself in Lisbon's rich history dating back centuries will take you back to one of the oldest cities in the world and Western Europe's original capital, pre-dating metropolises like London, Paris, and Rome as a capital. Lisbon has remained a dynamic global city renowned for its influence in finance, commerce, media, entertainment, arts, and tourism, further blessed with a Mediterranean climate, offering the warmest winters in all of Europe. 

Begin your Portugal vacation in the heart of Lisbon at the Baixa, a district meticulously reimagined after the devastating 1755 Lisbon earthquake, before continuing to the Pombaline Baixa, an elegant masterpiece showcasing an intricate grid-like layout. Venture deeper into the city centre to the expansive Praca do Comercio, or Commerce Square, and stand in awe at the imposing juncture beaming with life. 

Indulge in the high-end boutiques found at the Avenida da Liberdade before venturing north to the iconic Praca de Marques de Pombal, a significant roundabout and a transportation hub in the city. The timeless neighbourhoods of Alfama and Mouraria surrounding Lisbon invite you to explore their winding alleys and facades decorated in azulejo tiles, evoking a sense of history and tradition that resonates throughout the city.
