When to Visit Lisbon?

Portugal, Lisbon, Yellow Building

No question in my mind that the best time to visit Lisbon is during the months of April through June, plus September and October.

This is when the warm weather will allow you to take full advantage of the city’s charm, but you won’t be wilting in the summer heat.

 

How to Get to Lisbon?

Portugal, Lisbon, Spire

If you’re coming from an international destination, particularly one further away, it’s likely you’ll be flying into Lisbon care of the city’s international airport.

As always, I suggest Skyscanner for bagging the best flight deals.

Otherwise, you can also use buses or trains to travel to Lisbon from elsewhere in Portugal, such as the Algarve, or neighbouring European countries, such as Spain.

I highly recommend Omio for booking train and bus journeys to Lisbon, as they make it easy and quick to compare hundreds of rail and coach journeys to the city from across the Iberian region.
