Visit Lisbon
Lisbon is the country’s capital, brimming with hustle and bustle and located on the coast. You can while your time away café hopping and noseying around neighbourhoods – Bairro Alto being our favourite. The city is colourful and lively and the atmosphere is contagious. A little train jaunt outside the city is Sintra – well a visit. A little up the coast, the beaches of Estoril and Cascais are easy day trips when the sun is out.
Each ruling dynasty that came here left their mark on the capital. The knock on impact of this is that each of Lisbon’s neighbourhoods have their own unique character, from the grand 18th-century buildings of the lower town to the labyrinth-like streets of the oldest district, Alfama, that sits at the base of the Moorish Castelo de São Jorge. Interestingly, an earthquake in 1755 brought much of Lisbon to its knees, and nowadays the city’s architecture is clearly defined as being pre- or post-quake.
These example itineraries are here to get you inspired, but no two True Travel holidays are the same. Our Portugal experts start planning each trip with a blank piece of paper, designing every itinerary 100% personalised to you.

We went to Portugal to experience the Douro Valley, but True Travel delivered so much more than that. We loved the experiences we requested, but it was their extra suggestions which made the trip extra special – the Presidential Train was a highlight.
