Bañada por el sol, la historia y el encanto del viejo mundo, la sofisticada y amigable capital de Portugal es una perfecta introducción a Europa Occidental. La Ciudad de las Siete Colinas se absorbe mejor en bicicleta eléctrica o en un recorrido a pie, disfrutando de las vistas desde los miradouros elevados (miradores) y visitando lugares destacados arquitectónicos como la Catedral de Lisboa; los barrios históricos de Alfama, Chiado y Baixa; la Torre de Belem; y el Monasterio de San Jerónimo. Para ver mucho en poco tiempo y comer bien en el camino, súbase a un Segway para una visita guiada de degustación. Su guía lo llevará a los mejores pasteles de nata (tartas de natillas) de la ciudad, junto con otras especialidades locales. Si una de las muchas versiones del bacalhau portugués (bacalao seco y salado) no gana su corazón, Lisboa ofrece una gran variedad de mariscos frescos y una floreciente escena de restaurantes internacionales. Asegúrese de probar algunos vinos portugueses, que van desde el Vinho Verde, un blanco ligero y refrescante, hasta el oporto, el vino fortificado característico del país. Reserve un crucero romántico al atardecer en el río Tajo y no pierda la oportunidad de experimentar una querida tradición musical con una cena y un espectáculo en un club de fado local. Las excursiones de un día populares desde Lisboa incluyen Sintra, declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO, un antiguo refugio real coronado por una confección de un castillo de color pastel, y el pueblo turístico de Cascais. La céntrica ubicación de Lisboa facilita el acceso al valle del Duero del norte de Portugal y a Oporto, o a los balnearios del Algarve.
