This two-day itinerary is aimed at travelers who want to have an affordable getaway in Lisbon this Easter. If you have more than two days, you can visit attractions more calmly and see everything the city has to offer.

First day in Lisbon

For the first day of this budget getaway, we advise you to start the day early with a hearty breakfast, where you can't miss the pastéis de Belém and a good coffee to go with it.Then head to the Portas do Sol viewpoint. You can take Tram 28 or go on foot, which is cheaper.

When you've finished enjoying the views that this viewpoint offers you over the Alfama neighbourhood, you can go down to walk through the streets where you'll find the typical picturesque houses and monuments full of history. If you have time to return to Alfama, we advise you to surrender to one of the many fado restaurants around here. Stop at one of them, at the end of the day, listen to fado and enjoy.

The next stop is the Sé de Lisboa, which is considered the most important in the city. Since access is free, it is almost a mandatory stop on this budget getaway to Lisbon.After this visit, you can walk along Rua Augusta, which is the famous Baixa street, until you reach Praça do Comércio, where you will cross the magnificent Arc de Triomf. From here you can take tram 15 to Bairro de Belém and continue your budget getaway there.

In the afternoon, we advise you to visit the Monument to the Discoveries. With 52 meters high, the monument symbolizes a caravel, led by the figure of Infante D. Henrique, followed by 32 historical personalities who contributed to the Age of Discoveries. Next, there is the Belém Tower, located just a few meters from the Padrão dos Descobrimentos, and is another essential point of visit.
