Modern Lisbon Bus Tour

Create your perfect Lisbon itinerary and see the city at your own pace with your 24-hour hop-on hop-off sightseeing bus ticket. Make your way to the Rossio Square in downtown Lisbon, where you can present your voucher for a hop-on, hop-off bus tour of the city. From here the purple route heads up the eastern side of Lisbon, through a picturesque landscape where some museums can be found, like the Fado museum or the Azulejo museum. The highlight of the route is the modern Parque das Nações area, site of the 1998 World Expo, where you’ll find the longest bridge in Europe, the extraordinary Lisbon Oceanarium, and futuristic architecture alongside Tagus River.

In this tour, we go along the river Tagus towards the eastern part of the city, and one of the things to do in Lisbon is a visit to the Tile Museum (as we pass there on the way) and learn more about the famous glazed tiles, azulejo. Parque das Nações is one of the most recent areas of Lisbon, that hosted the 1998 World Expo. A leisure area with a modern architecture where exhibitions, fairs and big events take place. Buildings such as Gare do Oriente, Vasco da Gama Shopping Centre, Pavilhão de Portugal, Pavilhão Atlântico, and Torre Vasco da Gama stand out, contrasting with the centenary capital. By the riverfront we see cable cars and the famous Oceanarium, one of the biggest in the World, where everyone is amazed at its diversity of species. The sightseeing double-decker crosses the city and its main avenues. You’ll see also the most recent Lisbon cruise terminal in Santa Apolónia, in this Modern Lisbon Bus Tour.
