    Lisbon, Portugal
    • Lisbon, Portugal
    Welcome to Lisbon, the capital of Portugal and one of the oldest cities in Western Europe. Scattered across the peaks and valleys of seven hills, alongside the Tagus river, parts of the city date back to the 8th century with winding cobblestone lanes, colorful Moorish architecture, and trendy converted warehouses. Lisbon is consistently named one of Europe's coolest capitals and you'll soon be charmed by its sophisticated approach to design, art, food, and culture. Check into your hotel, located in the heart of the city. Tonight, you'll meet your tour director and fellow guests for a drink to toast the start of your journey. ...

    Lisbon, Portugal
    • Lisbon, Portugal
    Your first morning in Lisbon starts with a guided tour. The city has a long and fascinating history; founded in 1200 BC, it was ruled by the Moors for more than 400 years, led the oceanic Age of Exploration, and was almost completely rebuilt after a devastating earthquake in 1755. This heritage unfolds through the laneways, squares, and parks of Lisbon, each telling their part of the story. Wander through the Baixa Pombalina, the city's historic center; climb to the medieval Castelo de Sao George, standing high above the city; and admire the ornate architecture of the 15th-century Jeronimos Monastery. Along the way, stop to taste the nation's signature sweet - pasteis de nata (Portuguese custard tarts). ...

    Lisbon, Portugal
    • Lisbon, Portugal
    Today is yours to enjoy. Perhaps hop aboard the number 28 tram, which winds through the city's narrowest streets, up steep hills, and incredibly close to buildings. Because of the tight turns, only the vintage yellow wooden trams can operate on this route; it's like riding in a piece of history or for a bird's-eye view, take the 19th-century Santa Justa Elevator up seven stories to the top of one of the city's steepest hills. Art lovers can head for the Museum of Art, Architecture, and Technology (MAAT), spread across an historic power station and a new futuristic building on the bank of the Tagus river. Inside, you'll find the country's most impressive collection of Portuguese contemporary art alongside regular rotation of visiting exhibitions. There's also a crop of interesting museums. To learn about the unique relationship Portugal has had with Asia since the 16th century, visit the sleek Museu do Oriente. The National Azujelo Museum delves into the history of the colorful glazed tiles you see all over the city. At an exclusive farewell dinner tonight, you'll get to experience Portuguese cuisine at its finest. Lisbon is famous for its seafood, thanks to its prominent position on the coast, and its cuisine has long been influenced by its rich history of spice trading. ...
