The ULTIMATE 3 Days in Lisbon!

This is a big one and it's because Lisbon has so many amazing things to do, see and eat! Three days is just enough time to do it all in Lisbon and the surrounding area's but if you like to take it slow we would recommend staying a bit longer so you don't feel rushed. We cover so much of what to do in Lisbon with this travel guide but if there is anything we missed make sure you let us (and the other viewers) know in the comments 🫶

Thank you for the video. I was expecting to see better eating suggestions. Neighborhood places with local food. Asian food or fish and chips in Portugal, wouldn't have been a choice for me.

[@vrod1a]

Very nicely shown and explained 👍 Portugal is beautiful 😍 Thanks 🙏

[@MaxandJacqueline]

We agree, Portugal is stunning! 😍 glad you enjoyed the video

[@luisnascimento4721]

One historical fact about the castle, has to do with the Martim Moniz square where you had those oriental food treats. The name Martim Moniz was the name of a Noble or a soldier of the Portuguese army during the reconquest of Lisbon from the Moors, as the forces were trying to enter the castle from one the gates, the Moors tried to close it and to prevent them from doing that, Martim Moniz used his body to stop the gate from being closed...he was crushed and died but the Portuguese troops managed to enter the castle and take back Lisbon. His sacrifice made it possible, so his name was given to the square.

[@smit5590]

Fun fact; Portuguese is part of the language family 'Romance language'. There are five Romance languages French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and Romanian

[@MaxandJacqueline]

Wow I did not know Romanian was a Romance language!

[@andreribeiro521]

There are for more romance languages. Those are only the main ones. There is also Galician, Catalan, Occitan, Asturleonese, Romansh, Sardinian, Ladin and many others.

Very helpful vídeo guys! Lisbon is on my bucket list! Loved it!

[@MaxandJacqueline]

Glad you enjoyed it! Hope you make it soon 🤞

3 DAY S WONDERFUL

[@MaxandJacqueline]

It was a jam packed 3 days and we loved every minute of it!

[@Love_rainy_days]

Thank you guys💑 for sharing amazing Lisbon and area. 🏩The food looked amazing also. Love the channel and love the video. Stay safe and enjoy Portugal. Cheers 🥧🥧👨‍🏭

[@MaxandJacqueline]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@shontewalker8891]

Hello Max and Jacqueline, thank you so much for all of the Lisbon travel tips. I'm traveling there for my birthday at the end of November and you've given me some great ideas for placing to see and things to do 🙂

[@MaxandJacqueline]

Shonte thank you! We’re so glad it helped! And have an amazing birthday 🥳🍾

[@mikezimmer999]

It looks exactly like the Golden Gate Bridge, but it’s actually the Ponte Abril 25, named for that date in 1974 that marks the Carnation Revolution which brought an end to a crushing dictatorship under Salazar. I live here, but sometimes I call it the Golden Gate! 😂 Nice vlog of some of Lisbon’s highlights. Bom trabalho!!!

[@MaxandJacqueline]

It’s a very cool bridge! We actually got to see the celebration in Porto on Abril 25! Very fun and thank you for watching 🧡

[@module79l28]

@@MaxandJacqueline - It looks similar because it was actually designed and build by the same company that build the Oakland Bay Bridge, not the Golden Gate Bridge. 😉

[@PedroVanzeller]

Lisboa é uma cidade edificada em sete colinas e conhecida como tal daí não ser de estranhar ter de subir e descer com frequência. Bem-vindos a Portugal nomeadamente à minha cidade Lisboa 🇵🇹 Não sendo o Cabo da Roca como diz o ponto mais ocidental da Europa, mas sim Europa Continental então que diz às Ilhas Portuguesas dos Açores que até fazem parte da Europa..

[@MaxandJacqueline]

Oh very true we didn’t make that distinction. Thank you for the warm welcome 🤗

[@stefanpatrickco]

Went there around Sept 2024. The Pink Street is quite small. Some of the paint coming off. A lot of renovations happening in Lisbon but also plenty of empty or closed buildings.

[@MaxandJacqueline]

Yeah it was much smaller than we expected!

[@leonelleonardis9564]

You're right, Jacqueline. Argentina's ice cream is the best, hands down. I didn't know that Lisbon was such an amazing city. Greetings from Buenos Aires.

[@MaxandJacqueline]

It’s basically ruined ice cream for me forever now 😅 glad to have given you some insight to Lisbon we really liked this charming little city!

[@mariecruz8716]

What month did you guys go? Weather seemed noce not too hot?

[@MaxandJacqueline]

We were in Portugal in April/May and it was great weather! Not hot but not too cold either ☺️

[@KarenMcDonald-w4m]

Please tell me more about the place where you stayed in Almada and ferry company that you used. Thanks!

[@MaxandJacqueline]

Honestly the hotel was not great, couldn’t recommend it. But the location was awesome! The ferry is the public ferry, you use the metro card to tap on and off and you can see the schedule on Google Maps 😊

[@vickie3237]

Awesome ❤

[@MaxandJacqueline]

Thanks 🤗

[@galyagomolyaka9372]

I wish they'd mentioned the pricing more, like Sintra guide and would that include the entrance ticket? Because I thought buying in advance would save time.

[@MaxandJacqueline]

Sorry we will try to do that next time. Yea the Sintra guide included the entrance ticket.

[@galyagomolyaka9372]

@@MaxandJacqueline we're going this October. Maybe I can book the same guide. How much is it?

[@module79l28]

I know you're not familiar with the Portuguese language, so here's a pronunciation tip: the "ç" always has an "ss" sound, so "praça" should sound like "prassa" and not like "praca". 11:34 - Do you know what the name of those stairs translates into English? It's "The Little Stairs of Health". How fitting is that? 😄 17:40 - It's not the oldest bookstore in the world, it's the oldest bookstore *still in activity* in the world and it's in the Guiness for that reason. 😉

[@MaxandJacqueline]

Thank you Module. SO goood to hear proper ways of saying things as well as some little insights from a local 🙏🏻

[@photographlisbon]

Hope you guys had a great time in Lisbon! But, come on, three days isn't enough to visit the city. In three days you rush around, see the basic tourist spots (likely overpriced and crowded) and that's not good enough. I usually recommend closer to a week, ir order to visit Sintra/Cascais as well. Make sure to come back. You're always welcome!

[@MaxandJacqueline]

Three days is just enough to see all the main tourist spots but like anywhere it is always better to stay longer and explore more 🧡

[@o.c.g.m9426]

Not to fun history fact: In this "age of discovery/enlightenment," the Portuguese we're known to be some of the worst slave traders. Not that there were any good ones.

[@MaxandJacqueline]

Indeed! They did a lot of bad things in the past but so did a lot of empires 😓

[@grandtraveller]

🎉

[@grandtraveller]

No, the worst ones were the Africans who grabbed other Africans to sell them to the Europeans or Arabs or any one willing to buy them. No European went inland to pick any one, They Africans were the ones catching people from other tribes to sell them or change them for goods. Let's use the brain first.

[@holdencawffle626]

They're bad

[@PedroVanzeller]

Os escravos eram vendidos pelos chefes das tribos e não obstante olha para os Ingleses, Espanhóis etc . Portugal deu a conhecer novos mundos ao mundo e construiu novos países. Foram pioneiros no mundo da navegação. Certa gente diz mal dos Portugueses mas não os deixam em paz .

[@leonardobrandao785]

Lisbon is overcrowded and overpriced. You will find better use of your money elsewhere.

[@MaxandJacqueline]

The accommodation we stayed at showed how crowded Lisbon is, it was expensive and bad at the same time 😅 but we loved Lisbon regardless 🧡

[@shutupmanful]

What time of the year were y'all there?

[@MaxandJacqueline]

We visited in May and it was perfect 👌
