[@MMartec]

I agree! :)

[@unfutursimple]

Your excellent videos about Lisbon were very useful for our trip this past February. This one in particular gave us much confidence in using public transport and I think we tried them all: metro, bus, tram, funicular, elevator, ferry, Bolt and train to Sintra. About Tram #28: we took it on a Monday morning in February thinking it would not be too busy. But you are correct that there can be tourists any time of the year (it was particularly warm that weekend) and so we waited over an hour to get on at Martim Moniz. However, we took it again in the afternoon from the other end (Campo Ourique) and there was no waiting! It did fill up rapidly afterwards.

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Thanks again. Yes, much easier to get into the 28 tram on the Campo Ourique end, the main problem being you've got to get there first. All the best!

[@user-uf1il5zu2t]

Dear Tony, my husband and I just returned from our first trip to Lisboa and Porto. I just wanted to thank you for all the useful information you are posting here on KZbin. Without you we would have been so lost and floundering... But thanks to your many videos, we booked hotels in ideal locations within walking distance of so many interesting places! We enjoyed the #28 Tram in Lisboa by catching it at the beginning of the line. We took a train from Lisboa to Porto (and narrowly avoided the strike that began two days after we left). We walked the Dom Luiz 1 bridge (both lower and upper spans). We ate wonderful foods (Francesinha included!) in Lisboa, Porto, and Vila Nova de Gaia. We walked and walked and walked everywhere! Climbed more stairs than I thought could ever exist. Had a wonderful dinner in a Fado House in Lisboa. And the list goes on, and on. Again, THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts! With your expert guidance our first visit to Portugal was a rousing success! We'll be back!!!

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Dear Elle and husband. You can't imagine how happy we are to hear about the success of your trip, and the role we played. You know where we are when you return to Portugal (or Spain)! All the very best to you!

[@Bill-go9ed]

Tony, thank you so much for the informative, well thought out videos. We just returned from a week in Barcelona/Montserrat and a week in Lisbon/Sintra/Setubal. Your videos (and the Citymapper app) answered most of our questions and made us feel so much better prepared. One thing I want to mention is that the "Via Viagem/Siete Colinas" card is now called "navegante" and is bright yellow. Other than that, everything else seems to be the same.

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Hi Bill, many thanks for your feedback, glad to hear we were of help. Yes, Navegante replaced Viva Viagem last year, it works exactly the same. All the best.

[@largelingerie]

In my younger days, I might have been able to keep with you, but I am feeling overwhelmed. Just tons of information. I’m going to drive the personnel in my hotel crazy with my questions! I will watch this video a bunch more times, for certain. Thanks so much!

[@GadgetNeil]

Great video! So comprehensive! Thank you for covering all the detail so well.

[@MMartec]

Great video....! :) Just a tip: Now we have a metropolitan network in Lisbon, so.. Not just in Lisbon "city", but every single transport in the metropolitan area, say Sintra, Cascais, Caparica, Almada, or even as far as Setubal or Vila Franca de Xira, work with those tickets you mentioned.. and that is Boats, Trains, Metro, Ascencores, Elétricos, Buses, and even the MTS (a type of metro/tram ..sort of the DLR in London) In the south bank, with an extensive line too.. And... Btw.. those ugly orange boats are about to disappear... The very nice blue and white Catamarans will stay, and there are very new modern ones just coming into service this year and the next, substituting most of the fleet... same with the modern trams, it's being built a much larger area for them, going into the east, but also west over the hills, and the very new trams are going to take over... including the E15... But not over the old charming ones, those are meant to stay forever.. we love them :))) In any case, those new lines/trams will go directly from Algés (west.. where the Lisbon Riviera beaches start) to Oriente (east... the new finance and entertainment center) all along the river in an amazing journey for sure...!

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Thank you! Great to hear the rusty orange boats are about to disappear, they had some strange old charm but I much prefer the modern catamarans. All the best!

¡Hola Tio Tony! Lisbon is one of my most-visited cities in Europe; I once walked from the airport all the way to the Oriente Station/Mall which was only about 2 km and it was in autumn. I wanted to pass some time before my flight to Barcelona that evening. Also once used the Sintra Line train from Rossio to Campolide so I could see the aqueduct. Wonderful memories! - Red

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Thank you for sharing your fascinating experiences in Lisbon! Such a wonderful city!

[@angelalau28]

Just visited Lisbon, excellent public transport system, on time, no delay, clear indication! Additional information: for metro (not sure for other transport means), can use credit card directly, no need to buy ticket. I think better option for tourist, as there is fee for card, minimal loading each time €3 even at ticket office, so we wasted the remaining amount in cards

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Thanks, yes, payment by credit card was introduced after we released this video. We don't think it's a good deal, you pay the full fare as opposed to a discounted fare when you pay with a card.

[@danmattrazzo6415]

I love all your videos! Awesome job delivering the important information without the fluff!! I don't know if you've have this topic since you published it a year ago, but now that I'm here in Lisbon, I have found that you can easily use your Visa card and your digital wallet on your phone instead of the paper card. A big step up from needing to hassle with loading up a card at the machine.

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Hi Dan, many thanks for your words. Payment with contactless cards was introduced half way through last year. We don't think it's an interesting option, as you pay the full price. And if you don't care much for discounts, you'd probably be better off taking a Bolt or an Uber car, just slightly more expensive if it's more than one of you. All the best!

[@paulocorrea2293]

Tony, congratulations on a extremely well explained subject which may looks and sound simple but it can be confusing for those not familiar with the small details, ie how and which transportation card to buy.

Kudos to you for sharing in a professional, pleasant and informative manner .

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Thank you. We don't know of any Colina card as such, but if you are referring to the 7 Colinas card, it is a transport pass identical to the Viva Viagem card. The Lisboa Card is quite different and more comprehensive, see the details on this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXTLf6utgqh8nq8 We don't have a map as such but on this video you will see the location of the main attractions in Lisbon: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYSwh32Za8iBnqs

Hello Tony, great video which would help us a lot for our trip in the short future! Can you pls inform if possible to purchase a single ticket if there's still a little amount of credit left from the zapping? Thanks!

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Hi Yonari, unfortunately, if there is any zapping credit left on your card you won't be able to load anything other than more zapping credit. It's quite annoying, basically, once you add zapping credit, you need to stick to zapping credit, as it's very hard to zero the credit balance.

[@user-wb5iv8zv5p]

lovely video! When you simulated buying a card, there was a 24 hour option that included ferries that you did not discuss. Does that option with ferries include the boat routes you highlighted?

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Hi, we didn't covered all the options to make things easier to understand. The option with ferries include the boats going across the estuary, in our opinion, it doesn't pay off. Cheaper to pay for the boats individually. Unless you plan on spending the day coming and going by boat.

As of very recently, long after we recorded this video, you can pay for your rides on the metro with a contactless card. However, you will pay the full price as opposed to the discounted price you can obtain when buying multiple tickets.

Thank you for putting together another wonderful video. Just had 1 question. When purchasing a ticket via the machine, there was an option that said "6.45 Euros - Bus/Metro Daily Ticket valid for 24 hours after 1st use". It only says Bus/Metro, but does this include the Elevadores, Electricos, and Ascensors as well ? Thank You

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Hi David, it includes all the modes of transport you mention and we mention on the video. It was too long to list them on the menu.

[@stevesharpe176]

Thanks for the very informative transport video. Can I put more than one 24-hour pass on a Viva Viagem similar to putting more than one single ticket on the card? I will be staying a distance from the nearest metro station and will be using a lot of buses.

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Thanks Steve, we've never done it but I believe at the time of purchase you can load more than one 24-hour tickets on your card. Viva Viagem is now called Navegante but the way it works is identical to what it is described here. All the best to you!

[@kirstinbradley856]

What a great video! Can I ask what is the difference between the bus/metro 24 hour ticket and the bus/metro/train 24 hour ticket other than the obvious inclusion of use of the trains on the latter? Does the former bus/metro ticket also allow for the use on the trams and lifts and funicular ?

hi! thank you for this video, i have another question though. I will stay in almada and i will need to use the boat to go to lisbon. I am wondering which type of plan I can buy monthly. I saw that there’s one that costs €40. is that okay for the boat and the place that I will stay? thank you very much!

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Hi Elisa, we deal here with tourist trips to Lisbon, the best thing for you would be to ask wherever you are staying what would be the best strategy for regular crossings from Almada to Lisbon. Season tickets are usually available for residents.

Hi Tony, love your video. A few questions for you... We will be in Portugal (Lisbon) in early August and we are a family of 7. :) Wondering what the best way to get to our accomodations in Lisboa from the airport. We want to take the train. 1. Hoping you can help us source out our route (Google Maps is a little confusing) 2. Do you know if we need a car seat for our 2 year old if we use Uber/Bolt? 3. Lastly, what is your recommendation on where to get a SIM card? Hoping for something that has data (unlimited) and a phone plan. Thanks for your help. :)

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Hello, we have a specific video explaining how to leave the airport here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qV6WoKp8n52rps0 Lisbon trains don't reach the airport. You can buy a SIM card at the airport. All the best.

Hi Tony. Wanting to book accommodation in Lisbon. Can suggest some neighbourhoods. I found your videos in Madrid and Barcelona valuable when finding accommodation

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Hi Noela, if you can wait, on 5 February airs our video on the best areas to look for accommodation in Lisbon. All the best!

[@noelawalls5340]

Thank u Tony. I have extensively watch your videos and found them so helpful in planning our trip. Would it be possible to request some assistance with visiting Gilbratar. We only want to do a day trip and not sure from what town, or if a day trip is possible. Any advice u could provide would be greatly appreciated. Cheers from Noela in Australia 😊

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

@@noelawalls5340 hi Noela, we don't have anything on Gibraltar yet. Málaga might be your best choice for that day trip.

This is such a great, detailed, well-explained video!! I will be visiting Portugal for 3 days. Can you tell me if these are best options to buy Viva Viagem card: Day #1 riding Lisbon metro, specifically funiculars, lifts & trams (buy €6.45 Bus/Metro Daily Ticket?); Day #2 riding Lisbon metro & visiting Sintra (buy €10.70 Bus/Metro/Train Daily Ticket?); and Day #3 riding Lisbon metro and visiting Cacihas (buy €9.60 Bus/Metro/Ferry (Cacihas) Daily Ticket?)? Also if the 24 hour period ends mid-day the next day, do I have to keep track of that time or can I buy a new 24-hour ticket in the morning? Thank you!

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Thank you, Tony. In your case, we would get a daily ticket for day #1, and then charge money credit on the card for the remaining of your stay. You will end up spending far less money than if you bought the Daily ticket for days 2 and 3. All the best!

[@tonybaronfamily5082]

@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal Your recommendation is so appreciated, thank you! Looking forward to viewing all of your videos since we plan on going to Spain after our Portugal trip!

Is it possible to use the "Zapping" ticket for train rides as well, for a round trip train ride from the Rossio Station in Lisbon to the town of Sintra?

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

It is indeed and, as a matter of fact, we paid that way a couple of days ago while doing our field work for a future video on the day trip to Sintra.

Hi Tony. I came across your great videos about Portugal ever since I got a job offer for Lisbon. Can you please tell me if those vending machines were we can purchase Lisboa Card do also have the option for monthly pass for all Lisbon and surroundings? Thank you very much, Tony.

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Hi Mihaela, we are not sure, we never research options that are only for residents. But I'm sure you'll find out soon enough. Have a great time in Lisbon!

[@winicap08]

I am sorry but my comment is not related to Lisbon. Thank you though for this video. It will come in handy soon. If you can, can you make a video about about the Renfe's free travel for 2023. I have read some blogs about it but it's a bit confusing. :) Gracias !

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Hello there! If you leave your question on any of the several videos we have on trains in Spain we'll reply to it! All the best!

[@janzwoolf8531]

I’m hoping to come to Lisbon and areas this year . Your videos are excellent and one thing very good is that you speak slowly for everyone to understand. Query: With the Lisboa card can you get it for a week ? I need public transport for around 6 days and want just one card. Put some € on it and not have to think about a fare each trip. What do you suggest?

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Hi Janz, watch this video to understand what the Lisboa Card can do for you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXTLf6utgqh8nq8 It is a combo of attraction and transport pass. If you only need public transport, load either a 24 hours pass or enough credit to keep you going.

[@mariannadk2976]

Good evening! The video was very helpful. I would like to ask you if there is any app for buying public transport tickets?

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Thanks, Marianna, no, there isn't.

[@taiwaneil]

When using the card machines to buy and top up the zapping card, do the machines take foreign credit cards? Hardly ever use cash these days in England.

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

They take foreign cards.

[@sennebalus4955]

Dear Tony, I have a question for you: Can you with the Viva Viagem card travel to Sintra by using the train?

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

Hi Senne, yes, you can, with zapping credit, we talk about it on our video on Sintra kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6CQhWmXpZ17rLc

[@erickxerxesmaquilang9922]

Hi Sir, the 24H Bus/Metro/Train Daily ticket - does this include Tram as well?

[@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal]

It does.
