This itinerary covers Lisbon over seven days, including its historic neighborhoods and museums plus day trips to Sintra and the coast. It begins with central areas like Alfama and Belém to establish the city's layout before moving to day trips and less central sites. The sequence groups nearby attractions and saves longer excursions for later in the week.
One week covers central districts plus day trips to Sintra and Cascais. Buy a 7-day Viva Viagem card for trams and trains to keep daily transport costs under 20 euros.
Book Pena Palace timed entry online at least one week in advance. Arrive by 9 a.m. train from Rossio station to reach the palace before peak crowds.
Board at Martim Moniz before 10 a.m. and pay with a Viva Viagem card loaded for unlimited rides. Skip the full loop if time is short and exit at Graça for the viewpoint.
Take the train from Cais do Sodré station to Cascais, which takes 40 minutes and costs under 5 euros each way. Combine with a bus to Cabo da Roca if the schedule allows.
