Our day was very special. We visited an incredible place that we had only seen online. The arrival, entry, and tour went off without a hitch. We bought our tickets online and got in very easily. We plan to return soon.

Great deal, the card was picked up at the airport. Immediate transport from the airport to St. George's Church. The bus is included, as is the entrance fee. There are a few additional attractions with free admission, including a ride on tram 28. I recommend it

We enjoyed touring around, first with the gray line - red line (note: the same red hop-on hop-off bus also runs with yellow letters, and you should NOT take that one, even though they stop at exactly the same stops). The explanations were excellent, also in Dutch. We will NEVER forget 1755... very sorry for all the Lisboas at the time. Later, we took the blue line (nice and long) and walked back up to the center, panting, rewarded with some wine, beer, and tasty fish snacks while listening to the cozy, melodious Fado of Ana Moura. And then, together with my beloved, we ordered a nice aged Tawny port 20 to warmly conclude this balmy spring evening.
