LISBON CRUISE PORT on a Budget - What to see and do without spending a fortune.

"Black hole square"? Did I get it right? Never heard it before. Walking from downtown to Campo de Ourique is quite the distance but passing through some interesting spots. Good video with good tips. Hope you had a good time in Lisbon.

Black Horse Square due the statue in the centre. Maybe it's just the English being too lazy to pronounce Praça do Comércio! It certainly was a long walk to Campo d'Ourique, and all uphill, but we got to see some beautifully tiled buildings that we would otherwise have missed. We're going back to Lisbon (on a cruise) in December and we'll visit some of the places we missed. It's a beautiful city and we'll have to book a week there at some point. Thanks for watching.

I spent 4 or 5 days in Lisbon a few years ago. It is a great city.

The trouble with visiting places on a cruise is that you generally only have a day in port and for some places that is not enough time. Lisbon certainly is one city that demands a much longer stay and maybe we'll take a longer break there some time. Thanks for watching the video.

You can pay for each journey on the bus or tram by cash (no credit card) but the bettter value is to get a day ticket which allows unlimited travel on the buses, trams, metro and lifts. These can be purchased from a ticket machine at at any metro station and I believe you can pay by card. Current cost is €6.80 plus €0.50 for the card. You need one card for each person. The nearest metro stations to the cruise port are Terreiro do Paço (left when exiting the ship) or Santa Apolónia (right). Both are about 800 metres away. I'm pretty sure you can't buy online as you need a physical card (issued by the machine) which you load with the day pass. Hope that helps.
