Alfama
Oldest, steepest and the one you will photograph most. Bring shoes with grip.
Planned by an AI that knows the city
Lisbon, thought through.
Talk it through once and walk away with a day-by-day plan: the miradouros in the right order, a tram that is not the 28 at noon, and dinner where the hill flattens out. Change anything by saying so.

A few days in Lisbon, as the planner would shape them
- DAY 01 Alfama, downhill Start at the castle, walk down rather than up, finish at a fado house that takes walk-ins.
- DAY 02 Belém and the water The monastery at opening, the tower from outside, a long lunch by the river afterwards.
- DAY 03 Príncipe Real and the viewpoints A market morning, two miradouros before sunset, dinner in Bairro Alto once it wakes up.
Where to base yourself
38.711 N
Baixa
Flat, gridded and central — the only part of town your legs will thank you for.
38.717 N
Príncipe Real
Gardens, small shops and the best concentration of dinner within one block.
38.706 N
Cais do Sodré
The river, the market hall and the last trains. Loud late, quiet early.
Good to know
- How many days is enough?
- Three in the city, four if you want a morning in Sintra without rushing it.
- When is it worst?
- August, when the city empties of locals and fills with everyone else. March to June and September are kinder.
- Do I need to book ahead?
- The monastery at Belém and anything in Sintra, yes. The viewpoints and the trams are turn-up-and-go.
