Escape to Portugal's lively capital and soak up its unique energy on a cultural getaway - includes flights, breakfast, and a Yellow Bus tour
Once a trading port city at the mouth of the Tagus river, Portugal’s Lisbon has grown (and to this day, still carries on growing) into a fantastically diverse hotspot, with plenty more tricks up its sleeve than its custard tarts. For a break brimming with vibrant colour, relaxing mornings and even more chilled-out nights, set your sights on this city, where living like a laid-back Lisbonite is both affordable and dangerously easy.
Set your sights on a choice of hotels and venture out to explore this city of terracotta roofs and steep, stone streets. There's history, culture, and cuisine at every turn, and after a day of sightseeing the city comes alive with buzzing bars and quirky restaurants, where vinho verde is the order of the day. As an added bonus, this escape also includes a hop-on hop-off Yellow Bus tour ticket, where you can visit Lisbon's most famous landmarks at your own pace and get those postcard-perfect snaps to take home with you.

Lively Lisbon
Built on several hills on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, Lisbon is a lively capital city known for its laid-back atmosphere, mild climate, and thriving cultural scene. Wander the cobbled streets of the old Alfama neighbourhood to get a glimpse of local life, visit the UNESCO World Heritage site of Mosteiro dos Jerónimos, and step into another world at Museu do Oriente where you'll find treasures from Portugal's ties with Asia. When the sun goes down, it's time to sample some of the city's legendary nightlife, whether it's experiencing some traditional Fado music in an intimate bar or dancing the night away in an exclusive club.
To take in the beauty of the city, plan a trip to the top of the Cristo Rei, a magnificent statue which stands over 100 metres tall on the opposite bank of the Tejo River from Lisbon and offers stunning views over the city. The impressive national art collection at the Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga is an absolute must for culture vultures. For those after something more alternative, most of the Lisbon Metro operates as a free art gallery exhibiting works by contemporary artists inspired by the are surrounding the various stations.
