Lisboa Card

June 17th, 2008 · No Comments

Like many other cities in the world, Lisboa also has it’s “city card”, which is the cheaper way to travel around town and see all the main monuments and sights. I surely recomend it : the transport system in Lisbon is confuse and most tiumes requires a different ticket for every different kind of transportion. Just this can justify it’s purchase. But you take a look at the fees to visit two or three main monuments, you’ll get a quick idea of how much money you will be saving.

What kind of cards can I buy?

The card types are classified by two aspects : age (adult / children from 5 to 11) and duration (from 1 , 2 or 3 days). For children aged less than 5, transportation and sights fees should be free.

How much will I have to pay?

One day : 15€ for an adult card / 8€ for a children card
Two days : 26€ for an adult card / 13€ for a children card
Three days : 32€ for an adult card / 16€ for a children card

Where can I buy it?

The Lisboa Card can by purchased in the Ask Me Lisboa kiosks that are placed in some convenient city locations :
