Walkabout in Lisbon Portugal port

 Having been to Lisbon before, I did a walkabout from the ship.

Tips for a nice walk or if you are staying in Lisbon

Walk, and Or take the train as the trams especially #12 is packed and has pickpockets 

If staying in Lisbon stay near the train station, it’s easy from the airport and the you are in the heart of the action

On a cruise you come in on the port side. Get up early to see the sail in

Walking around the commercial gates and the streets around is easy, it’s the hills that will give you the work out

The walking on the promenade is pretty but long.

A Tuk tuk is 20euros per person for 4 in this electric car for 1.5 hours. A good deal.

The custard tarts are amazing and they always ask if you want two

Be careful on the steps up and down the hills as there are loose rocks

Shopping is cheaper on the side streets

The “sexiest washroom in the world “ is 4 euros in commercial square

Have a coffee and use the restaurant ones for free

Hope this helps
