The ultimate Lisbon ticket! Are you ready for a hop-on hop-off bus tour? Check! How about a night tour? Check! Two walking tours? Check! A boat tour? Check! This exceptional ticket truly encompasses everything you need to discover the splendor of Portugal’s capital city! Our hop-on hop-off bus features three routes that lead you to various parts of Lisbon, ensuring you experience the city to its fullest.

Red Route:
The Lisbon Red Route serves as your guide to many of the city’s key attractions. It commences at the grand Marquis of Pombal Square, located in the city center, offering views down the Avenida da Liberdade towards the river. Stops along this route include essential historic landmarks such as the Belém Tower, the Jerónimos Monastery, and Cais do Sodré, situated right next to the magnificent Comercio Square. Each stop along the way presents something new and distinctive!

Blue Route:
Our Blue Route ventures out of the city center to explore some of the more contemporary attractions. A highlight of this route is undoubtedly the Oceanário de Lisboa aquarium, one of the largest and most impressive indoor aquariums in Europe, home to the remarkable ocean sunfish, one of the largest fish species in the world. For additional natural wonders, disembark at Lisbon Zoo, which houses around two thousand animals! From lions and meerkats to elephants and dolphins, it is a true sanctuary of extraordinary creatures.

Green Route:
Lisbon is a city characterized by its hills, and at the pinnacle of these hills lies São Jorge Castle, the crowning jewel of Lisbon. Our Green Route offers the most efficient way to ascend the hill to the castle. The ascent is undoubtedly rewarding, as the vistas are breathtaking! The Green Route bus also traverses other hills, leading you to Lisbon's hidden gems such as the charming cobbled streets of Bairro Alto and the Miradouro da Graça viewpoint. Collectively, these three routes ensure that you will not overlook any aspect of this remarkable city.

Boat Tour:
A boat tour on the Tagus River is an essential highlight of any trip to Lisbon. Experiencing the city from this magnificent body of water is truly delightful. The boat will navigate the Tagus, providing you with stunning views of Lisbon, the impressive April 25 Bridge, and the magnificent Sanctuary of Christ the King monument that gazes down upon the city from the opposite shore. Settle into a seat on the deck, relax, and enjoy the gentle sway of the water as you absorb the grandeur of Lisbon and the splendor of its surroundings. Guided Walking Tours Your ticket encompasses two guided walking tours. The first tour leads you from Restauradores to São Jorge Castle, while the second takes you from the castle to the Alfama district, one of the city's oldest and most atmospheric neighborhoods. Throughout both tours, you will be accompanied by a knowledgeable guide who will share the city's stories and secrets with you!

Night Tour:
Lisbon is a stunning city during the day, exuding a unique, faded elegance. At night, the streets transform, creating a different ambiance. Our included Night Tour will guide you through the city center, allowing you to appreciate the beauty of Lisbon as night descends.
