Highlights
Why it works here
Lisbon's hills make it a city best explored at your own pace — rushing between viewpoints defeats the purpose. Wexplo adapts to your speed, triggering stories about each neighborhood as you enter it. Walk the Tram 28 route on foot and hear everything the tram passengers miss.
March to May or September to November — warm enough for walking but without summer's steep heat.
Portuguese, English
Compact center — everything on foot
Climb to the Miradouro da Graca in late afternoon. It faces west for the best sunset view over the city, and Wexplo narrates the Moorish and medieval history of the hill you're standing on.
