Lisbon is just a short flight away; 1-3 hours from most European cities and 5-8 hours from North America. Lisbon Airport is only a 15-minute transfer from the city center and is served by all major airlines with daily direct connections to all major European cities as well as US and South America.
Also known as the white city, thanks to its unique light, Lisbon is the capital and largest city of Portugal, built on seven hills and boasting all the delights you would expect of the country’s star attraction. Welcoming and bright, the mild climate allows for marvelous walks all over the city. The city has a beauty that extends beyond its famed monuments that can be experienced everywhere and embraced by all the senses. Lisbon is one of the oldest cities in the world, and the oldest city in Western Europe.
The city stretches along the northern bank of the river Tejo as it meets the Atlantic Ocean. As the landscape rises north away from the water, steep streets and stairways form the old tangled neighborhoods giving way to green parks in the western suburbs.
