Lisbon, Portugal's sunlit capital, spreads across rolling hills above the Tagus River, with pastel facades, tiled buildings, and vintage trams. It is known for its melancholic fado music, fresh seafood, and a welcoming, easygoing pace. Every climb is rewarded with a jaw-dropping viewpoint, so lace up and let the city surprise you!

When to go

Spring (March to May) and autumn (September to October) bring warm, sunny days and thinner crowds, making them the sweet spots. Summer is hot and busy with peak tourism, while winter is mild and rainy compared to Canada. Lisbon enjoys plenty of sunshine through much of the year.

Getting there from Quebec City and Montreal

Lisbon has grown as a gateway to Europe and is sometimes nonstop from Toronto or Montreal, though most travellers connect once across the Atlantic depending on their departure city. These eastbound flights are typically overnight, arriving the next morning. Allow time for the layover and the time-zone adjustment.

Good to know before you go

The currency is the euro, and cards are widely accepted, though small cash helps in cafés and markets. Public transit is excellent and the smart move here: the metro, trams, and funiculars tame the steep hills, and ride apps like Bolt and Uber are cheap for the rest, so skip the rental car since narrow streets and parking are a headache, and pack good walking shoes. Portuguese is the language, but English is common in tourist areas, and the city is generally very safe.
