Sintra palaces, Óbidos medieval walls, Setúbal beaches, and the Alentejo wine region are all within reach. Find day trips from Lisbon curated by people who live here.
Experience the magic of Lisbon''s coastal towns like Belem, Carcavelos, Monte Estoril, and Cascais. Belem and Cascais are quite touristic but still worth exploring, while Carcalvelos and Monte Estoril offer chances to explore more local stops. If you go by train, you can enjoy an ocean view of the Atlantic Ocean on your way since the train rides right next to the beach most of the way. In summer, bring your bathing suit, a towel and your favorite book for some seaside relaxation.
Walk or tram along some of Lisbon's oldest streets and churches in Aflama, ride a funicular cable car, appreciate cool street art, walk a maze of traditional cobblestoned alleys, and then move over to Lisbon's slightly more modern and bustling areas of Baixa-Chiado and Bairro Alto.
