Around Baixa
Best time to visit Lisbon, month by month
May, late September and October are the best months: 22–26°C, low rain, and the Sintra palaces bearable to queue for. January and February are the cheapest and wettest — expect 15°C, several grey days a week, and four-star doubles in Baixa dropping to €90–130; the compensation is Pena Palace and Castelo dos Mouros almost to yourself. March and April climb slowly, with Easter and the Óbidos Festival Internacional do Chocolate pushing weekend rates up in the walled town. June is the most expensive month of the year in the city: Festas de Lisboa runs all month, the Santo António street parties on the nights of 12 and 13 June fill Alfama, Mouraria and Graça, and central hotels ask 40–60% above May.
July and August are hot (28–33°C inland, cooler on the Atlantic side) and the demand shifts to the coast — Cascais, Estoril and Ericeira peak, with four-star doubles at €200–300, while some city hotels are marginally softer than in June. September is the strongest all-round month: warm sea, NOS Alive already over, prices near June levels but the light is better. November is the trap — mid-month Web Summit at the Altice Arena in Parque das Nações puts 70,000 people in the city and doubles or triples rates citywide for four or five nights. December is cheap until about the 20th, then New Year at Terreiro do Paço lifts it again; Óbidos Vila Natal runs through the month and books out weekends in that one town.
Getting around Lisbon: metro, trams, trains and whether you need a car
You do not need a car in Lisbon, and in Alfama, Mouraria and Bairro Alto it is a liability — streets narrower than a car door, resident-only parking, and hotel garages charging €18–25 a night. Get a rechargeable Navegante card for €0.50 and load single rides at about €1.80, or take the 24-hour Carris/Metro pass at roughly €7 if you are doing the funiculars. The metro’s four lines cover the airport, Baixa (Baixa-Chiado, Rossio), Avenida, Parque das Nações and Alcântara’s edge; trams 28E (Martim Moniz–Graça–Alfama–Baixa–Estrela–Campo de Ourique) and 15E (Praça da Figueira–Alcântara–Belém, about 25 minutes) do the rest. Buy tickets before boarding — the onboard fare on the 28E is around €3.20 against €1.80 with a card. The ferry from Cais do Sodré to Cacilhas in Almada takes 10 minutes and costs about €1.55.
For day trips, trains beat driving. Rossio station to Sintra is roughly 40 minutes and about €2.40 each way; Cais do Sodré to Cascais is 33–40 minutes for a similar fare, stopping at Belém, Oeiras, Carcavelos and Estoril along the seafront. Queluz-Belas on the Sintra line puts you 10 minutes' walk from the Palácio Nacional de Queluz. Mafra, Ericeira and Óbidos are bus territory — Mafrense and Rodoviária do Oeste coaches from Campo Grande and Campo Grande/Sete Rios, an hour to Mafra, about an hour and a quarter to Óbidos. A hire car only earns its keep if you are combining Arrábida, Setúbal and the Costa da Caparica beaches, where public transport gets thin.
How many nights in Lisbon, and what to do with them
Four nights is the honest minimum if you want the city and one palace day; five to six if you want Sintra properly. Day one belongs to Baixa and Chiado on foot — Praça do Comércio, Rua Augusta, the Elevador de Santa Justa, then up to Castelo de São Jorge (about €15) and down through Alfama at sunset. Day two is Belém: the 15E tram, Jerónimos and the Torre de Belém, the Padrão dos Descobrimentos, and the MAAT on the riverfront, ending with an early evening at LX Factory in Alcântara. Day three is Sintra, and it needs the whole day: first train out of Rossio before 9am, Pena Palace on a timed ticket, then Quinta da Regaleira or Castelo dos Mouros, not both plus Pena.
With a fifth and sixth night, add the coast and a second palace. Cais do Sodré to Cascais takes under 40 minutes, and Estoril’s Tamariz beach or the walk to Boca do Inferno fills an afternoon; Queluz slots into a half day on the way back from Sintra. Mafra’s Palácio Nacional, with its basilica, library and six carillons, is the quietest big monument in the region and rarely queued. Keep one evening free for Príncipe Real and Bairro Alto without a plan, and one for a fado house in Alfama or Mouraria — book the fado, as the rooms hold 30–40 people. Anything under three nights and you will spend your time on the 28E rather than in the places it passes.
