Lisbon’s Tourist Card simplifies sightseeing: one pass that covers public transport across the city, grants free entry to top museums and monuments, and helps you skip queues at selected sites.
From the ancient streets of Alfama to the riverside monuments of Belém, the card is designed to help you see more while worrying less about tickets and lines..
Museums and attractions in Lisbon typically open in the morning and close by late afternoon or early evening; opening days and hours vary by venue and season, so always double-check the schedule for places you plan to visit.
Some museums have reduced hours or closures on national holidays or for special events — check individual listings when planning your visits.

The Lisbon Tourist Card works across the city’s trams, buses, metro and select elevators, and grants access to a long list of museums and monuments. You can activate it at the first use and then move freely around Lisbon without buying separate tickets for transport or entry to included sites.
Lisbon’s main train hubs—Gare do Oriente and Rossio—connect regional trains and are easy to link with metro and tram lines. If you arrive by train, follow signs to the metro or tram stops and use your card for onward travel across zones included in the pass.
Driving into central Lisbon is possible but parking is often scarce and expensive. If you do drive, park near major hubs or your accommodation and then switch to public transport—the Tourist Card covers the city transport network and removes the stress of city driving.
Most city buses accept the Tourist Card for journeys within Lisbon’s transport area. Bus routes are useful for reaching places not served by trams or the metro, including viewpoints and hillside neighborhoods.
Many of Lisbon’s neighborhoods—Baixa, Chiado, Alfama, and Bairro Alto—are best explored on foot once you hop off. The card helps with the parts that require a tram, funicular or elevator, leaving you to wander narrow streets and enjoy spontaneous discoveries.
Because it bundles the essentials: unlimited travel on public transport, free or discounted entry to dozens of museums and monuments, and the convenience of a single ticket so you can focus on exploring Lisbon’s layers of history, its pastel de nata stalls, and sunlit viewpoints.
Alfama is Lisbon’s oldest quarter: a maze of cobbled lanes, laundry‑strewn alleys, and sudden viewpoints. With the Lisbon Tourist Card you can combine a tram ride, a visit to the Fado museums and a wander through ancient streets to feel the city’s living past.
Belém holds some of Lisbon’s most famous monuments—the Jerónimos Monastery, Belém Tower and the Monument to the Discoveries—and several museums included with the card. A stroll along the river and a pastel de nata from a nearby bakery is a must.
From the elegant squares of Baixa to the cultural heart of Chiado and the nightlife of Bairro Alto, the card helps you move between neighborhoods quickly so you can sample cafés, viewpoints, bookstores and fado houses without fuss.

Choose the duration that fits your trip—24, 48 or 72 hours are common options—and use the card across transport and city museums.
Combine a morning of museum visits in Belém with an afternoon in Alfama and an evening enjoying sunset views from Miradouro São Pedro de Alcântara.
