[…] Lisbon is one of the cosiest capitals in Europe, and the country itself is one big attraction for tourists: reasonable prices, tasty food and fantastic coffee, plus openhearted citizens that are always willing to help tourists, a lot of monuments, castles, and museums that are worth visiting. It is also the most extreme point in Europe; therefore, many people visit for this reason alone. Remember, it is home to one of the most incredible places on the Earth to learn surfing, namely the Azores islands. […]

When I moved to Lisbon I was fascinated by the funiculars and still am. My absolute favorite is Bica (partly because it’s gorgeous, partly because you’ll never see me climb up lol). As for the tuk tuks, well, to be honest? I’m fed up with them. It’s just too crowded and busy…

I tried a couple of these during my trip to Portugal but my favorite by far was riding a Tuk Tuk.

In reply to Jolanta aka Casual Traveler. Which tour did you go on? Such a shame that you didn't enjoy your tour. We did go on one that took you down past the Gloria Funicular but the others are slightly more difficult to find. :)

We did the bus tour in Lisbon, but they didn’t go to the places where funiculars go, which I heard is the best part of the town, so I left a bit underwhelmed. Good to know there are so many other options!

Elliot, I also love walking tours but they are not for everyone as you say. For some utilising the services I have mentioned make for a more enjoyable trip. I would love to do a walking tour next time we visit Lisbon though – we will definitely me in touch! 🙂
